  • Geralt from the Witcher fits nicely on this list.

  • That’s a given though thank you for the clarification. Yes I agree women should be in charge of making these types of decisions. Abortion should be legal regardless.

  • Her conviction was vacated. That means it’s like it never happened. They were wrong to arrest and prosecute her.

  • When abortion is outlawed, the only thing that changes is that more women die.

  • The cinnamon she ingested had no part in the miscarriage.

    Should she had abandon her kids to get to the hospital instead?

    Not all women have regular periods.

    You’re clearly misinformed on this topic on several levels. Best to sit this one out with your pearl clutching.

  • They’re functionally parasites, especially in the first trimester lol. They leech nutrients from their mother’s body.

    Abortion is healthcare. Women deserve respect and autonomy.

  • Fetuses are literal parasites inside a woman’s body frankly.

    It’s not comparable to killing pets, FFS.

  • Rousseau was crying while sitting on the porch steps with her arms folded across her chest as deputies told her they were trying to figure out whether this was a “viable baby that you miscarried,” the body camera footage from 2018 showed.

    Then-Deputy Jacqueline Mitcham asked her to estimate how big her belly was, prompted her to demonstrate the size of the baby with her hands, and asked her why she didn’t call 911.

    “I didn’t want to get put in the hospital,” Rousseau explained. “Who’s gonna take care of my kids?”

    She repeatedly told the deputies she didn’t know how far along she was in the pregnancy and had done nothing wrong. She explained she was just lying in bed when the stillbirth happened.

    “Have you given much thought about why that happened?” asked Mitcham.

    “Because I did everything I could to have a miscarriage,” the mother replied, saying she ingested cinnamon – which she read online could naturally end a pregnancy. She also told authorities her car broke down a lot and that she had to push the vehicle when it did.

    But doctors would later testify there was no scientific proof the actions Rousseau described had caused the stillbirth – a point the judge later cited in his order vacating her conviction.

    You could at least read the article.

  • It should be legal regardless of what women in power believe as well.

    It’s not an issue for politicians at all.

  • Before she went to prison, Rousseau’s life was defined by constant change – from the countless times she had moved to the jobs she worked.

    At 14 years old, she could insulate a house “better than most men” and assemble a roof in high heels, she said. As far as jobs go, Rousseau has done “pretty much everything,” including bartending, detailing cars and cleaning hotels and Airbnbs.

    Her favorite job was working as a taxi driver for 15 years because she could lend a sympathetic ear to passengers when they needed it most.

    But on the day law enforcement showed up on her doorstep, Rousseau says she was the one who needed that support.

    Oh you don’t understand paragraphs, I see.

    It doesn’t state that she started working at 14. By 14, she was a skilled laborer.

  • The article details she started working in her very early teens.

  • Women are allowed to have autonomy over their own bodies.

    She was jailed for 2 years for something that was legal.

    You have no idea the burden of being this poor and in the situation she found herself in to hold judgment on her.

  • She did nothing wrong.

  • This is a predictable result. It's still important to track it and talk about it.

  • You just had to double down on being a disgusting asshole, didn't you.

  • Abortion access is political.

    Conservatives are the party that enact legislation criminalizing women's healthcare.

    Why are you defending them?

  • Sims 4 already did that.

  • Male and female are proper words. OP used them for both. It's fine.

  • She was my bisexual awakening before I ever even realized it lol
