This is really glib. There is a whole generation of women's lives about to be ruined.

Because it’s never going to happen. This isn’t like reversing Roe. On what legal basis could they do this? And this would be ridiculously unpopular across the country.

On what legal basis? You do understand that Congress literally writes the laws, right?

Comstock Laws were never repealed. No need for a new law.

This! The law is already on the books. Nothing to pass, they just need to start enforcement to strip us of reproductive control.

Exactly, and now the biggest right wing influencer of them all is on it.

Musk is a moron, but the suicide risk for non oral hormonal birth control is actually true, per a Denmark study. I’ve known a lot of women who had to stop depo-provera because of the affects on their mental health.

I also agree with the Denmark study that more studies are needed.

Bullcrap.

Dismissing the data, instead of talking about it, isn’t going to be doing anyone any favors.

Have you taken birth control before? You should understand that they can cause things like depression and mood disturbances for some women. Switching birth control is the best way to alleviate these problems.

Yes I have. I was on the pill for 20 years, and on a Mirena IUD for another 5.

Which meant I had a great sex life and only the exact number of babies I wanted.

I know of zero women my age who stopped the pill because of depression. We are in our 60s and saw the terrible affect of too many children on our mothers. They got married too early just to have sex then git trapped with no careers and too many children.

I see women on thus board pushing this garbage that hormonal birth control is dangerous, and it is ludicrous.

Read The Women's Room and educate yourself.

I also took it for decades. I had to switch because one made me feel like I was losing my mind.

Dismissing these side effects, instead of telling women how to fix them, is both stupid and dangerous. Refusing to talk about it will only help the crazy people who want to talk women out of taking birth control.

I facilitated getting my teen on birth control, but I was also honest with her about side effects. Hiding information because you think it makes women have too many babies is absolutely ridiculous.

OK, drama lama.

You know what has a crap ton of side effects? A pregnancy!

And in the U.S. in 2021 we had 32.9 maternal deaths per 100,000 live births.

A lot of male infertility polls are going to slipped into a lot of drinks.

Voters and reps that don't know how to stay out of people's private reproductive business.

Interestingly, Trump himself has privately signaled support for a 16-week abortion ban recently. I wonder how that will play with his base if he pursues this option.

His base is not enough to get him elected. A large majority of voters want him to stay out of anything to do with women's reproductive healthcare. Always and forever and they intend to show up and vote about that

Agree but I think PP’s point was a big chunk of his base doesn’t want any abortions at all so 16 weeks isn’t going to cut it with them. But they’re also the “party of family values” and yet they worship Trump so who the f*** knows.

Death is not the only side effect of pregnancy.
