Trust Women

I know it's been a while since I've last posted in this blog. Currently, animation has been halted indefinitely because of other things that had come up-- I haven't really been talking about it that much in my Twitter, which I use regularly.

I have made this entry in response to a question, in honor of the 37th anniversary of Roe vs. Wade. Recently, NARAL Pro-Choice America had asked its followers to respond to a question- what does "Trust women" mean to you? This is not what I normally use this blog for.

"Trust women" was what abortionist Dr. George Tiller had lived by, before he was massacred last year by an anti-choice ,"pro-life" activist, at his church. The words were important because they promoted confidence that women would make the best choices for themselves-- the government does not and should not dictate the personal decisions of one's body, which is what many people seem to believe in the anti-choice movement. I believed the words Tiller had spoke were essential to live by today, without anti-woman interference. If abortion is outlawed, how can we truly trust women? How can the country prove that we are confident in women making the right decisions for themselves?

I regularly tweet, promoting choice and putting my own two cents into certain events in the pro-choice movement, all for the sake of keeping women out of prisons and keeping abortion safe, rare, and legal.

Trust women. Don't be a freaking pussy about it.
