I typically hate when people say “I have a mother and a wife and a daughter” to explain their feminist stances. Cuz it should t take that.

But birth control is one issue I didn’t even come close to beginning to understand until I had a daughter entering puberty.

There are any number of health issues that can surface as women enter the bio reproductive stage of maturity.

Birth control is a tool that serves as an aid to many women on a number of fronts.

Denying millions of women access to it because folks don’t get science is whack.

I’ve seen women curled up on the floors, calling out of work, sitting in the clinic at school experiencing pain I could never imagine FOR A WEEK OUT OF EVERY MONTH.

And it’s different for every woman, because that’s how bodies work.

Maybe we should mind our business???

To be clear, I’m not some holier than thou feminist whose got it all figured out.

There are times where I automatically think “it can’t be THAT bad”

But that’s a goofy thought because:
1) I don’t have a uterus & will never know
2) people have died from doctors thinking that way

What is, and will continue to be, ignorant at best and inhumane at worst is that we would suggest to the word that our religion requires other people to suffer because we don’t understand how a friggen uterus works.
