The NationStates Feminism Thread IV: Fight Like A Girl!

[Fahran]

why am I not surprised

I tend to do this to threads, my bad

You're an embodiment of chaos clearly.

We went from "abortion is morally neutral" to "abortion can be a kink" in a span of time that upsets me.

A woman was burned to death by her ex-husband yesterday in Turkey. Turkey should be ashamed !

It's been my understanding that violence against women is extremely common in Turkey. This includes the murder of spouses, violence against strangers, and, in more rural areas, honor killings of daughters, sisters, and cousins.

don't worry
it requires you to have a full supporting cast of characters

Didn't anyone tell you? This thread is also the horny brig.

If your god exists he's either apathetic or sadistic, and I'd be honored to go o hell. That is a discussion for another thread, though.

If you were any more edgy, my psychiatrist circa 2016 would have to advise me to stay away from you.

I'm better irl.

the irony here is that Tars and Ran are very heavily religious

You secretly being Shadow the Hedgehog explains your formerly nihilistic outlook surprisingly well.

And I wasn't the one who decided to volunteer the "some people are into abortion" tidbit. I'm a good Jewish girl who does good Jewish girl things. My fetishes include cooking, rambling about how horses are cool, and making up picnics for my boyfriend of half a year that involve gazing admiringly into each other's eyes and holding hands. Also, I just realized that I'm like the final boss you have to fight after smashing the patriarchy. Big oof.

Abortion is the cocaine of any debate thread.

Yeah.

[Sundiata]

Overall, I'm grateful for the technological progress that facilitated women's widespread entry into the workforce. There's a dignity to work that gets undercut by the darker features of our time. Our work transforms our society. It's easy to put the onus on government workers, politicians maybe.

Regardless, no one gets to be a spectator. No woman is a spectator. Women, especially women today have the power to bring about great things in their work. Rigorous work, dignified work, is an important part of refreshing our institutions.

Abortions don't have to happen and they can be stopped.

Lots of things don't have to happen, but do.

Sadly.

Sex ed, condoms, and birth control prevent abortions.

Sex ed, condoms, and birth control prevent abortions.

Condoms and contraception are not the necessary fix we need.

Condoms and contraception are not the necessary fix we need.

But it is true. This data set shows that higher access to birth control and contraceptive means lower rates of abortion.

It's a no brainer to me, especially as a sex positive feminist.

Ok, we'll get into this topic later today as well as the issue of sex-positive feminism in its contemporary sense. For now, I need to get a lot done. Peace be with you.
