One More Post For Now

I know I don't blog anymore, but this is worth the crying and yelling and too- tiredness I am experiencing as of late:

Today is Blog For Choice Day.  Check it out.

And I'm supposed to say why I'm Pro-Choice;  I think the more appropriate question is Why Isn't Everyone?

I never understood why so many in this country think it's okay for someone other than myself to make decisions about what I do to my body.  Seriously...how is that even close to being sane?  It's not the issue of whether it's okay to have an abortion (that's a totally different thing to me); it's about standard human rights.  GOD - it's so obvious, isn't it?!?!

And who the fuck cares (je m'excuse) whether someone gets an abortion?  I'm getting so SICK of how religion runs everything in our country.  I think I'll go puke now.

So it's the anniversary of Roe vs. Wade.  Sad that there was even a law that had to be turned around, huh?  Stupid ass religous fanatical bible loving lawmakers.

Blech-  oops- more chunks...

ciao~

Eloquent. Pure poetry. :)

I love it when you rant in your blogs. You crack me up woman.

But on this topic, I could not agree with you more. I would NEVER want the option to be taken away from me. I want the freedom and the basic right to choose and I want to make sure that the empowerment that comes with choosing when to pro-create will continue to be in the hands of the females this issue impacts.

Another issue that is just ridiculous is the government-grant requirement for abstinence education. Sex-ed is not the same as "let's show the kids how to fuck" eduction--there are video games, movies and music videos that do plenty of that already. Why are there so many idiots that seem to think that a responsible course on responsible sexuality is going to make teens hornier. I mean, is it such a bad thing that our kids may learn to have responsible sex? To get information that is "real" that could combat the onslaught of media-hyped sex that makes careless sex cool?

grrrrr....
