just a reminder since we're talking about abortion that women aren't the only people who need access to abortion and using gender neutral language isn't going to magically make cisgender men start getting abortions and use up all the abortions

Mary Oliver taking us all to task.
Mary Oliver “Of the Empire” We will be known as a culture that feared death and adored power, that tried to vanquish insecurity for the few and cared little for the penury of the many. We will be known as a culture that taught and rewarded the amassing of things, that spoke little if at all about the quality of life for people (other people), for dogs, for rivers. All the world, in our eyes, they will say, was a commodity. And they will say that this structure was held together politically, which it was, and they will say also that our politics was no more than an apparatus to accommodate the feelings of the heart, and that the heart, in those days, was small, and hard, and full of meanness.
