If you don’t want to get pregnant, you should keep your legs closed.
Fine. I’ll keep my legs closed.
Why do you hate men so much? You’re going to die alone with your wine and your cats.
I don’t hate men. I’m just trying not to get pregnant.
It’s your fault that we don’t get enough sex. It’s your fault that we have to turn into angry, violent incels.
What? How is that my fault?
Don’t get so emotional about it. You snowflakes always get triggered.
Well, what happens if I do get pregnant?
I suppose you will have to make the difficult choice to have the baby. But don’t worry–it will turn out to be a beautiful blessing in the end!
Okay…what if I only have sex with women? Maybe that way I will never need an abortion.
Yeah…now you’re definitely going to hell.
Why? I’m a free American making responsible choices. Isn’t that what we’re all about–freedom?
Not THAT kind of freedom.
What kind of freedom, then?
We offer you the freedom to live up to your fullest potential as a woman, as a wife and mother. The one true way for you to find happiness.
I’ve known plenty of married mothers who were not happy.
They’re just not very good at practicing gratitude. That’s not our problem. They need to learn to be grateful for what they’ve been given.
What if they didn’t want this? What if they didn’t want children?
If they didn’t want children, they should’ve kept their legs closed…
I need a drink.

AMEN!! I love the way you frame the argument. I’m assuming this is a hypothetical conversation. But it would not surprise me if this was an actual conversation. It’s how they think..In the year 2024. Sometimes I feel we are living in the Twilight Zone!

Yes! It’s very much a hypothetical conversation…but can’t you just imagine them saying all these things? I’ve got no use for Christian nationalists and dominionists. I’m no longer at the age where I need to worry about it, but I’m still furious on behalf of all the younger women who have to live in this backwards world. Twilight Zone is right!!! Thank you for reading!
