We’re on the precipice of dangerous and scary times, folks. The ability of women to choose stands in peril, and if things go the way they appear to be going, the path will be dark for a long while. Our wives, sisters, and friends will be forced to carry unwanted and even dangerous pregnancies to term. Our daughters will inherit a world where their own bodies are more regulated than weapons, and their own biology will be weaponized against them to enforce what will basically amount to subservience. . When my wife was pregnant with our daughter, she developed a lot of scary complications. With a lot of medical help, they both made it through just fine, but we were very fortunate. Along the way, we also learned that attempting another pregnancy would likely be fraught with heavy risks. So, despite all our vigilant precautions, there is always a chance of surprise, and the future appears to be shockingly to put the life of my wife, and countless women like her, on the line, in the name of puritanical zeal. Future generations will be sentenced to navigate the slippery slopes of risk and obligation, and many will find themselves trapped in the constant strain of poverty. Our daughters will not bear this alone, as our sons will find themselves in the same bondage, especially when the risk of their childrens’ mothers become tragic avoidable losses. . We are looking down the barrel of some Handmaid’s Tale shit. Our own American evangelical brand of Sharia Law. . Shit feels downright bleak, y’all. Stay strong. .
