Feminist Rage

If you:

Are Pro Life

Think abortions should be illegal and are murder

Don't believe women should have control over their own bodies

Dislike or are prejudiced against women

Dislike or are prejudiced against men

Don't believe that men can be the victim of sexual assault or abuse

Blame rape on a woman

Think that women shouldn't be allowed a job

Think that women should stay at home

Are racist

Are homophobic

Are an Andrew Tate supporter

Shouldn't you not dye/bleach your hair?

Get tattoos?

Get piercings?

Use acrylic nails and nail polish?

Deny sex to their husbands (.The US refused to criminalize marital r@pe until 1993. That says a lot.)

Breastfeed in public

Get a business loan without a male cosigner

Wear pants on the Senate floor (I genuinely don't know what to say about this one.)

Access to emergency contraception

Box in the Olympics

Obtain health insurances at the same monetary rate as men (Basically, this was the US saying that women's health didn't matter as much as men's health, because, well, why worry about women, right? It's not like we keep the human race alive and continue it.)

Fight in military combat

Marry other women (This crosses into LGBTQIA+ rights, but it's still valid)

Use the bathroom easily at work (Fun Fact! Once, a supermarket told all their female staff that they had to wear an armband to show if they were menstruating, so that they would be permitted to use the bathroom at work!)

I think that a lot of the time, we tend to take a lot of the rights we have for granted, and not take the time to thank those older feminists who fought for them, for our freedom.

Murder (Noun) The unlawful killing of another human being by another

So firstly, is a fetus a human in the womb? Some might say that life starts at conception, but I disagree. I, personally, think that life starts only once the baby is born and has actually taken a breath. A fetus cannot survive outside of the womb up until a certain point. That point is 6 somewhere in between 6 - 7 months. At that point, an abortion could potentially be illegal. That’s just a way of appeasing the pro lifers, to try and please everyone.

When you think about it, at its core, a fetus/embryo (Or a zygote for biological terms at conception) is basically just a clump of cells undergoing a reaction and evolving. The cells start off as one which goes through mitosis to create two, and then that creates, four, and so on, until they differentiate. One could argue that all animals do that, but it doesn’t make sense. When a fetus does it, it is growing new parts. When we do it, we’re simply healing and generating new cells. There’s a difference. A fetus cannot feel pain, does not have an opinion, and does not have any thought processes.

When it’s conceived, and when it’s developing, a fetus could technically be considered a part of the mother. It’s using nutrients from her body, using her body as a host, and so on. Even after birth it still uses her body (Breastmilk).

Religion’s Role

Compare two countries that use religion a lot. Christianity (USA) and Islam (UAE). In Christianity, no matter the circumstance, be it a woman’s life is in danger, or the fetus will be born with fatal deformities, an abortion is murder. However in Islamic countries (UAE for example), an abortion is justified if the mother’s life is endangered by the pregnancy or if the fetus will be born with fatal deformities. When you look at the religious aspect of things, you can’t just look at one. You have to look at multiple. 

How Can A Fetus Possibly Consent?

A fetus can’t. A fetus can’t consent, but you’ve also got to consider that at the same time, it can’t ask for anything. If we’re bringing consent into this, then wouldn’t a fetus need to consent to the mother taking vitamin supplements? Vitamin supplements can affect the fetus’s development. So can alcohol and smoking. Doesn’t the fetus need to consent to the mother drinking and smoking too? How does it possibly make sense?

What About Adoption?

Adoption is not a solution. There are thousands of children in foster care, and 25% - 40% of them are abused. If a woman got an abortion instead of condemning a child to a life of foster care where they’re more likely to be abused than adopted, which one is more morally correct? In 2019, only 26% of children in foster care were adopted, and that number has been steadily decreasing, with the abuse rates increasing. Not to mention, studies show that youth in foster care are two and a half times more likely to contemplate suicide than youth not in foster care. If abortion is murder, if it does take a life, all it does is speed up the process. If a woman gives birth to a child and puts them up for foster care, only for them to kill themselves 10 -15 years later, thinking that they’re unloved, what’s the difference? You’re still condemning them to death. So pro lifers need to ask, which is better? Foster care or abortion? 

Whose Choice Is It Really? The Fetus’s Or The Mother?

Anyone who says that the LGBTQ+ Community is pushing our "Agenda" down their throats have clearly never talked to conservative Christians.

A group of teen female track athletes were kicked out of practice and then a lacrosse game. Why? Because they were wearing sports bras without a t shirt over it in temperatures over 80°F (26.6°C). The worst part? The boys were allowed to go shirtless. Yes, you heard me. The girls had to go with a t shirt while the boys were allowed to go shirtless.

Their athletic director, Alice Chapple, stopped the practice and warned the girls that their attire was inappropriate and a distraction to their male coaches. Yes. Their male coaches. Middle aged men who are most likely married, who possibly have kids, etc. Why would the girls attire be distracting to the coaches? If it's distracting to the coaches, wouldn't the coaches be the problem?

The next day, the girls showed up to practice dressed the same way again because it was even hotter. This time, Chapple kicked them out of practice for violating the dress code. She also told one of the boys practicing to put his shirt back on but didn’t kick any of them out. How is this fair? How? Where's the reasoning or the logic?

Later that day, the team members tried to attend a lacrosse game in the same outfits, but security guards and Chapple stopped them.

Why?

Society has sort of put this idea in people's heads that women’s bodies are sexual, like we’re overly sexualized. But guys having their shirts off isn't a problem? If you look at rape cases, so many excuses circle around things like "She was wearing this." or "She was drunk." and even "She was asking for it, walking around dressed like a slǚt and wh0re."

Did You Know?

In 2002, a survey was conducted. The aim of the survey was to figure out the pay gap between genders. The results? For every dollar a man earned, women only earned 80 cents.

Then, in 2022, a similar survey was conducted. The results? For every dollar a man earned, a woman would only earn 82 cents.

Where to start with this?

Firstly, men who say "Women who were irresponsible enough to be pregnant need to take responsibility." are idiots. A man helps to create a baby too. By that logic, a man should take responsibility for a baby too. If a woman is forced to raise a child that she doesn't want, then a man shouldn't be allowed to leave her while she's pregnant. And the quote "Women who were irresponsible enough to be pregnant need to take responsibility." doesn't even begin to touch on the topic of women who were raped, women who's partners slipped the condom out halfway through, women who's birth control failed. What if a woman's life is at risk with the pregnancy? Women have a heartbeat too. And people who say that women can just get their tubes tied are big fat uneducated morons.

Women have had experiences when they went to have their tube tied where their healthcare provider would ask things like "Oh, but what about your husband?" "Are you married?" "What if your husband wants kids?" "What if you regret it?" and are told things like "You're too young." "You'll regret it.". There are so many obstacles standing in the way of women trying to get their tubes tied compared to men getting a vasectomy. When women get their tubes tied, there are also hormonal side effects. When men get a vasectomy, there's NO hormonal side effects. But the hormones side of things is just basic biology, there's no arguing that. But, for whatever reason, birth control is pushed onto women. It only takes 24 hours to recover from a vasectomy whereas it takes 1 - 3 weeks to recover from getting your tubes tied. And yet, men will refuse vasectomies but pressure women to get their tubes tied or get a hysterectomy. And if a woman is pregnant, people only care while the baby is in her womb.

People don't care about the baby once a woman gives birth. A prime example of this is how pro lifers push for abortions to be banned because "A fetus is a human." And "Abortions are murder.". Like, bitch, a fetus is a ball of cells. They don't even have pain receptors until the fourth month of pregnancy. And how are abortions murder? And you only care about the baby while it's in the womb. Once it's out, you don't give a shit. If all lives matter, what about the black lives? What about the thousands of kids in foster care who are being raped and abused daily? No one bats an eye. If you really think all lives matter, then you should also help kids in foster care and homeless people. What about the people who can't afford a hospital or treatment for something such as cancer? What about them?

My opinion is: Abortions should be made widely accessible to women. It should be a woman's choice if she gets an abortion or not. She should not be denied basic healthcare.
