between a "couple of months ago" and now, an abortion ban was implemented.

Maga’s refusal to grasp this is like in a movie where the antagonist has murdered a beloved main character and has some sort of mental block about what they’ve done. Maga can keep pretending that their abortion bans aren’t a big deal, that all it means is that irresponsible 20 somethings won’t be able to go out with their fellow lady friend sluts and get abortions on a Friday night, but they’re only fooling themselves.



Huge mistake. A lot of these women are old enough to have seen all of it. The difficult pregnancies, the infertility, the rapes, friends and family that have had an abortion, and on and on.

I don't think anyone knows better than a woman who's experienced it all, or knows a lot of people that have experienced it all, the critical importance of making your own reproductive decisions.


My 78 yo mother is horrified that her granddaughter will less rights to decide what to do with her body than she did. I am certain she is not the only one look at it through this lens.


+1. Three generations of my family all went together to support Harris in early voting.


And three generations of mine voted Trump. Your point?


Surely you aren’t that dense. Their point is that in another elections cycle that didn’t include the guy who installed 3 justices who overturned Roe v Wade one or more of those 3 may have voted for a republican candidate but in 2024 - they see this one issue as taking constitutional rights from half the population and that is making them vote as a block for the democratic candidate.


Their attempted point was that this is the defining issue for women to the point of generational shifts. The data doesn’t support this. Most voters list their primary voting issues as immigration and the economy including inflation. In some polls abortion didn’t even make the top ten. As passionately as some women like this Jess are about abortion, they do not speak for all, not even the post menopausal ones. They speak only for themselves with the hope that their opinions will be shared.

Yes, and it’s about providing access to health care for women in general. My mother in her eighties had trouble filling her Rx for methotrexate. She takes it for arthritis, not to induce an abortion. Maybe they thought she was going to sell it. Well, she’s just as fired up to vote for Harris as she was for the first time she voted in the 1950s.

I can’t imagine raising a daughter who is voting for a man who said he has the right to grab a woman by the p***y. I am so proud that my two daughters know that all of his words and behaviors are unacceptable. He’s been convicted of sexual assault. He cheated on his wife while she was pregnant. He will “take care of women whether they like it or not.” My daughters know to stay away from men like that. And they certainly wouldn’t vote for such a man to be elected as a leader.

This. Women vote to improve and protect the community.


A lot of post menopausal women are pro life or happy with this decided at the state level. This random twitter lady doesn’t speak for all women.


I don’t know a single post-menopausal woman who would want the state deciding this if it was their daughter who was raped and pregnant— I know plenty of Catholics and I think some of them might even carry that baby but to pretend they know the answer for everyone? No


Almost all states have rape exceptions.


Jfc, as if that makes it a good thing.


It was dumb to argue as if it is an either or question. You can have state abortion limitations that account for the rare cases of rape induced pregnancies.
And most states do.


But then you have to “prove” rape, which is a whole other thing, and frankly a disgusting thing to ask a woman — or a child— to have to do.

Grandma fought for reproductive Rights. Her daughter held those reproductive Rights. Her granddaughter lost those reproductive rights.

Point is this battle goes on and on and always will until the laws reflect women's reproductive rights. Go Harris!

You know what does? State referendums.

Seven of them.


And VERY noteworthy when republicans try to block referendum votes. It makes it obvious that they want the government dictate what women are allowed rather than leave it the people to decide. Antidemocratic.


“Leave it to the states!”
“No, not like that.”

(this is why you can’t trust what they say about the national abortion ban either)

The (mostly male) (almost universally not educated in and/or experienced with the practice of medicine) (occasionally laughably and demonstrably ignorant about even the basics of women’s health issues) have zero business being in the exam room for something as complex and potentially life-threatening as pregnancy. They need to GTFO.

This is true. I lived there in the 80s and it was much more purple as was all of the Midwest.
