I’m not against birth control as long as a baby isn’t harmed, but people need to understand that women were successful and did many wonderful things prior to the invention of the pill in 1956, let alone prior to Roe vs. Wade in 1973. Marie Curie invented the X-Ray Jane Austen wrote culture-shifting books Harriet Tubman freed hundreds of slaves Joan of Arc lead the French Army Rosalind Franklin discovered DNA Florence Nightingale lead the first Army nurses The list goes on. Your babies aren’t your enemies. Children are a blessing. Your ability to create life actually makes you even more incredible and invaluable, on top of all the other wonderful things you contribute. This attitude that women become worthless once they’ve had children is actually the very misogynistic culture these women in red handmaiden capes should be protesting. We are not our birth control. We deserve better than abortion. We deserve to be loved, honored, and supported as mothers who contribute immeasurably to society in countless and diverse ways.
