Happy Tuesday! In this episode we take a look at the recent anti-abortion laws being passed around the US. Trigger warning: abortion discussion (obviously) and rape (not graphic). If you’d like to skip ahead, please join us at 1:02:00.
Though this topic invokes some powerful opinions on both sides, we are seeing a widen of people who “operate in the grey” on their views on abortion. We as women discuss why this topic feels personal and also how two unicorns who agree can also simultaneously disagree. We touch bases on Roe v Wade and the more recent Planned Parenthood v Casey ruling and the future of it in this upcoming election.
After we both discuss our views about abortions we have a SIDE BAR that is unbelievable (spoiler, it’s Mexican food related).
From lack fo sex education and contraceptives, to the shocking case of Marshae Jones we “answer” the question, are headed for a real life Handmaids Tale? This leads us into the theme of race and the policing of women’s bodies. We discuss the numbers of WOC obtaining abortions and how that correlates with economic status.
As we briefly discuss sexual health we consider, who is even making these laws? We then have a call to action to WOC to feel empowered to be informed about the way laws are passed. As we close this topic we are encouraging each other and other women to open up about our bodies and begin to normalize our reproductivity health. Let your period flag fly!!
We also get mad at the internet because grown folk care way too much about the race of mythical creatures and share our happy places (spoiler: Dani talks video games and Dameca talks music).
