Without the restoration or replacement of our federal funding, the public health impacts will be severe — cancers will go undetected, STIs will go untreated, pregnancy will be less safe, and patients won’t get the birth control or abortion care they need to plan for their families and futures.

Here's your Friday reminder that virginity is a ✨ social construct ✨! It's a completely made-up term with no basis in medicine.
The idea of virginity comes from outdated ways of thinking that hurt everyone, and it was only created to control and shame people – mainly women.
