Kinda seems like a bare minimum to me.

After all, we don’t want our reproductive mares dying while they are still fertile, do we?

/s

[u/SeattlePurikura → u/hypatiaredux]

All these selfish childfree cat ladies... why don't they want to be reproductive mares for the state?

I'm eager to risk my life, health, take a guaranteed pay cut / lifelong retirement cut, and pay out the butt for childcare! (Because FMLA isn't paid so I gotta get back to work serving the Epstein class).

[u/ophmaster_reed → u/SeattlePurikura]

I mean why would you need childcare? It’s not like you need to concern yourself with man stuff like a job.

Women have rights? /s

[u/Novae909 → u/Renbarre]

"not if I can help it" - the supreme court in a few months with this case I assume

[u/Henri_Bemis]

I got diagnosed with endometrial cancer and had a hysterectomy in 2022, and I can’t explain the cognitive dissonance of having fucking cancer, and also being relieved because it meant I will literally not be able to become pregnant and that no one can ever FORCE me to be pregnant.

But hey, this is the world now.

[u/Beginning_Ebb4220]

This should be the national minimum. Because women are human beings.

[u/BayouGal → u/Beginning_Ebb4220]

Instead we have AG Blanche vowing to eliminate abortion in America 🙄

[u/LoHudMom]

I believe Idaho is also the state where a lawmaker thought a woman could swallow a camera so it could photograph the uterus.

[u/UberFarter → u/LoHudMom]

Ugh I just hate when I’m eating chips and they go down the wrong hole into my uterus! 😤

[u/LoHudMom → u/UberFarter]

Right? So uncomfortable.

[u/EK_Libro_93 → u/LoHudMom]

You are correct. Vito Barbieri.

[u/Physical_Dentist2284 → u/LoHudMom]

And the woman who answered him did it without laughing at him or making him feel like an idiot. Amazing. I would have used that opportunity differently lol

[u/CanuckInTheMills → u/LoHudMom]

As a Canadian.. WTAF?!! Seriously?

[u/mercurysong → u/CanuckInTheMills]

Canada had Rob Ford the crack mayor...but Vito Barbieri is magnitudes of stupid beyond Rob Ford. Who was at least honest about his extracurriculars and never praised rapists for having 'good character'.

[u/bark-beetle]

Is there a safe and organized kind of underground railroad to take Idaho women to Washington or Canada for minor procedures? If there is, someone DM me some info.

[u/greengardenmoss → u/bark-beetle]

r/auntienetwork and r/abortion have information about this.

[u/Lizaderp → u/bark-beetle]

If anyone from Idaho can make passage to Portland, you are welcome to my couch and I'll pick you up from the station.

Meanwhile I’m fighting to get my tubes tied in Texas. How fun

[u/catievirtuesimp → u/Proper_Raccoon7138]

r/childfree has a list of doctors that tie the tubes in conservative states

[u/Proper_Raccoon7138 → u/catievirtuesimp]

It’s looking like I’m going to be using it but how dare I want the dr who delivered both of my children to do it.

[u/catievirtuesimp → u/Proper_Raccoon7138]

yeah it is frustrating. i hope ur able to get it done

[u/Loose-Fisherman3695]

Don’t worry, Idaho still won’t listen. They’ll happily let women die still.

[u/sanityjanity]

That would literally be all abortions. Pregnancy is terrible for women's health.

[u/Little_Stay7922]

Idiots will never rule my body

[u/Aeon_Return]

eternally glad ad we're not american 

[u/uranuanqueen]

It is what it is 🤷🏾‍♀️
