From "Texas Taliban" To "Women's Rights," We Need To Do Better When Talking About Abortion

No one does linguistic propaganda like abortion opposers, but pro-choice advocates have our own issues with language that need to be addressed.

Even the term “pro-choice” comes with a lot of baggage attached. For starters, it’s seen by many as a euphemism used to avoid saying the word “abortion,” which is a word we shouldn’t be hesitant to say just because the right has tried to vilify it. It also erases a huge number of people who have abortions not out of choice but out of necessity. People who experience miscarriages may need to undergo a surgical abortion to clear the uterus, and people may experience severe medical complications during pregnancy and need to have an abortion or risk extreme, life-threatening medical complications.

Much of our language around abortion erases trans men and nonbinary people from the conversation. Yes, reproductive justice is an issue that affects women. But it does not affect women exclusively. Erasing others from the discussion around reproductive rights doesn’t help women, and it does cause real harm. In fact, it only helps those fighting to take away our right to make decisions about our own bodies.

In an article at Rewire News published in 2019, writer s.e. smith noted that many of the same organizations and individuals looking to eliminate access to abortion are also fighting against transgender people’s rights to make decisions about their own healthcare.

There’s another part of our current abortion discourse that we desperately need to put an end to, and that’s cutesy phrases about red-state bans like “Texas Taliban.” This phrase has been all over Twitter recently and it has to stop.

In addition to being racist and Islamaphobic, it’s simply unnecessary. Are you looking for a phrase that describes a facet of the government that is trying to police the bodies of women and other marginalized people, that wants to exert an incredibly intimate form of control over their bodies and entire lives? That exists! It’s the Christian right. It’s the people enacting these laws here, right now, and for hundreds of years before in this very country. We don’t need to outsource our references to oppressive forces; America has never had a shortage of them.

Some quiet Spanish studying in bed ✨ As someone going back to school and balancing full time work and classes, I’m thankful for online class and I feel like I’m alone in that but I am excited!
