#rape culture
I’m pro-choice, which really means I’m pro-bodily autonomy. That means I support these things:
- Not being forced to stay pregnant
- Not being forced to have an abortion
- Being able to get sterilized without hassle or shame
- Not being forced to get sterilized
- Affordable care for carrying a pregnancy to term
- Respecting patients’ right to consentduringchildbirth (tw: birth violence)
- Access to affordable contraception
- Comprehensive sex education
- Not being forced to have sex without contraception
- Freedom from all rape and sexual assault
- Compassionate treatment of sexual assault victims and justice in the courts
- Wearing whatever clothing you want without harassment
- Access to affordable gender confirmation surgery and hormones for trans people
- Ending infant circumcision and genital mutilation
- Respecting patients’ right to consent to all medical treatment
- Death with dignity for the terminally ill
- Elimination of torture as an interrogation technique
- Ending domestic violence and all other violent crime
- Ending sex, organ, and surrogacy human trafficking
- Sex workers legally working in safe, violence-free environments
- Consent for all interactions involving your body
Your body, your choice.
Rape culture and anti-choice culture are one and the same. Bodies are not objects. No one and nothing can use your body without your consent.
