I'm not an anti-vaxxer, and I'm not pro-life.

But I'd like to think the people who are so up in arms about telling women what to do with their bodies should stop and think for a moment about how that type of sentiment is what drives so many anti-vaxxers to call for people to stop telling parents what to do with their children's bodies.

Like, I know the caveat here is abortion doesn't harm anyone, but to play devil's advocate, pro-lifers believe it harms an unborn child. I personally don't think it does since again, I'm pro-life, but just something for both sides to think about since there's some parallels here regarding legislated morality.

This is a good point. If anyone is arguing for abortions, it's because the fucking government shouldn't be telling me what I can and can't do with my body, and if a body is in my body, that's my personal space to do with as I will. So your children are your personal belongings, unless taken from you, and the government shouldn't be able to tell you how to raise them.

I think someone made a condom with barbs in it so that if you somehow remember to wear it every time you don't want sex and take it out every time you do, only a rapist would cut up his dick on it and be easier to fine and confirm he did it. Now I'm sure with the US legal system, some motherfucker would try and rape a girl, get his dick cut up, go to the hospital and get bandaged up, and then try to sue the victim for damages just like burglars do when they break in to houses and get hurt but don't die. I'm saying if we have laws like "stand your ground" and those that allow you to kill someone trespassing, then how is it a person inside your person isn't subject to those things? Are we now saying a woman's body doesn't belong to her, that it's property of the State?
