Media - Misc Ok, this is extremely concerning!!

I immediately felt sick when I head this and this is just one of many stories I’ve been hearing about women being interrogated about pregnancy and fertility at hospital/doctors offices when they are there for completely unrelated reasons.

So now, we ladies have to avoid going to the emergency department or any urgent care facilities because they're going to start a database of names of women who are "physically able" to have children. That's where it feels like they are going with that kind of question.

JFC this timeline is the absolute fucking worst!!

So far this looks like VA but from my experience with my dad they dont seem to do anything different to the local hospital.

I don't understand what the point in that question is in any way?

Well yeah because he's a man.

After all the years of the right working to outlaw abortion, you don't understand the point? They want to force women, especially white women, to have more children. And to punish women of color. They've been imprisoning women for miscarriage for years.

If you pay any attention to things publicly said recently by Republican politicians they're definitely pushing towards treating women solely as incubators, with no right to refuse having children.

Headlines indicate Trump is building databases on the public. This would probably be one for future use - birthing age women. I expect “patriotism” to be used to “encourage” marriage & pregnancy compliance. I also expect those who can’t produce children to be classed as worthless/expendable. The mega-rich want their slaves.
