Abortion pills are safe.
Having to wait until you're septic to get a D&C is not safe.

“It’s not a coincidence that this resurgence of housewife iconography comes at the same time abortion rights have been stripped. What better way to quiet the next generation of girls, growing up without repro rights, than to tell them it’s actually progress? They’re making sexism aspirational.”
While the radicalization of young men is largely seen for what it is, the insidious campaign targeting young women isn’t positioned as indoctrination. It’s a lifestyle, an aesthetic, and—most dangerously—a perfectly good and feminist choice.
