Reproductive rights has always been a big issue in our world. Starting with women having virtually no rights over their body to then being given way more opportunities, to now possibly having them stripped away. Women have already had to endure the hardships of being looked down upon for having children, which was started by men, so birth control became a way to prevent that from happening. It is still something that is looked down upon, but definitely not as much as it used to be. It’s very hard for women to find jobs and keep them with a busy schedule of taking care of children at home at the same time especially if she has no help. Most jobs also don’t offer paid leave for women as well. Deciding to have a baby is a big thing where finances have to be on point so that there is no added stress and to ensure that the child can be well taken care of.
Abortions are something that should be decided by the person who is carrying the baby because statistically, she will literally be the one taking care of it most, if not all of the time. Like I said, men started this narrative of it being bad to have children young, but now they want to get rid of safe reproductive options like plan B, abortions, and hopefully not birth control in the future. This is to further oppress women so that they have a reason to not get equal opportunities as men. There should be no opinion of men on this matter unless they are the ones carrying the actual child. Eventually, if Roe v Wade gets reversed, women’s rights and feminism will be on the path of complete destruction because of men once again.
