In Iran, women are fighting against theocrats who enforce hijab by burning shit down, including their hijab.
In the U.S., what are the women fighting against theocrats who enforce abortion bans doing?
It is #InternationalSafeAbortionDay. Where is your feminist revolution?

It’s imperative to understand that the theocrats who look like you and those who don’t both follow the same rule book: control desire and control our bodies. More simply: Control.

The patriarchy atop theocracy melange of Iran’s “morality police” is easier to see because it is so visibly expressed in enforced hijab.
But what is the enforced pregnancy of the Christian zealots in the U.S. but a melange of patriarchy built atop theocracy right here?

September 28 is #SafeAbortionDay. Last year, for that day and in solidarity with the right to safe and accessible abortion for all, I finally wrote about my "illegal" abortion in Egypt in 1996 and my "legal" abortion in the U.S. in 2000

I use inverted commas because I reject the State’s attempt to control my uterus. I reject its power to declare what is “legal” or “illegal” when it comes to my abortions. The State can fuck off with its opinions about what I can/can’t do with my uterus. That control belongs to me
I was not raped. I was not sick. The pregnancies did not threaten my life. I did not already have children. I just did not want to be pregnant. I did not want to have a child.
I am glad I had my abortions. They gave me the freedom to live the life I have chosen.

auch gegen Pille danach, und insbesondere Kupferspirale) sind die Argumente a bis d ganz ok, wenn man bedenkt, dass es gegen Abtreibungsgegner geht, die Verbot ab Nidation wollen.

Aber dann der Schluss:
"Im 21. Jahrhundert sollte es vollkommen normal sein, dass Frauen selbstbestimmt über ihren Körper entscheiden dürfen und freien Zugang zu Fachinformationen kriegen. Alte Männer in Röcken, die sich an Kindern vergehen, haben da nix

Today is #SafeAbortionDay. This is the first year that I have been able to say: I have had two abortions. I am glad I had my abortions. They gave me the freedom to live the life I have chosen. #Sept28 #AbortionIsNormal #AbortionIsHealthcare

Criminalizing abortion does not eradicate it nor does it make it rare. It makes it dangerous and often deadly for the poorest and most vulnerable people who can get pregnant.

Women & girls pay a high price for restrictions on abortion. They pay with their health, their well-being & even with their lives
Last January, abortion in #Poland - already only available to women in extreme circumstances - was further restricted.
