Feeling quite sorry for the Kenyan guy who didn't get the joke and is now catching a lot of occasionally quite nasty corrective flak which is swamping my mentions.
People do love to correct others, and nobody just likes what's already been said about it
Lots of women have had helpful abortions that changed their lives for the better by giving them control #HerBodyHerChoice
I have had:
1 miscarriage after not knowing I was pregnant,
1 contraceptive failure termination in a bad time & place,
+ 1 full term pregnancy
Due to my mental health instability until midlife, I would not have been a good parent to either of the first potential people I made, but by the last one, I was so ready & we're doing well.
Obviously as ~1/5 of conceptions end in miscarriage naturally there may have been others
First known:
I had IUD (coil) contraception in place
Turns out I was >16wks unwittingly pregnant when I miscarried. Ectopic.
No idea I had conceived at all. No emotional connection at all, no sense of change to my body.
Only realised I was pregnant after I haemorrhaged it out
White women are under-represented in American abortion statistics, as they generally have better access to family planning education & methods than other ethnic groups
Clarence Thomas signalled the right to contraception is next after RoeVsWade npr.org/2022/05/11/109…
Olivia Rodrigo and Billy Eilish giving the finger to all the Supreme Court Judges and then singing "Fuck You Very Much" to 10K+ people all is just a very special moment, Glastonbury 😲❤️♀️💪
And Greta Thunberg at Glastonbury speaks for the planet
& Nature
& those displaced by the Climate Crisis
& the young people who will inherit the mess that the rich countries & people of the world have created
the systems that allow it
