Abstract

My biggest issue was the centering of the fatal fetal anomaly cases. There was no space for someone to say, “I just didn’t want to be pregnant” or “I already had two children.” Those kinds of everyday decisions that people make, and they’re valid decisions too. And again, the media being hungry for the horror stories, people that had been raped. Rather than just saying, “This is a thing that happens, people have sex, people get pregnant, people have abortions, it’s part of reproductive life.”
