Rape Culture the War on Women.
It’s becoming clear that in pop culture media and social societies that “slut-shaming” is incredibly prevalent. Unfortunately it enforces this idea that rape culture is okay, whats worse is our own U.S. government is taking this a step further.
Over the past year many conservative states in the U.S. have fought to pass bills for “Fetal rights” this going by the beliefs of pro-life supporters that life begins at conception. Luckily these bills did not pass.
Moreover some states are pushing for women who are seeking abortion to be forced to take an unnecessary ultrasound and pay for it themselves.
The absolute worst is in the state of Virginia a law has passed where women seeking an abortion has to have a MANDATORY trans-vaginal ultrasound, and the doctor giving this procedure does NOT NEED THE WOMANS CONSENT.
p.s. for those of you who may not know a trans-vaginal or (gynecologic) ultrasound is an ultrasound performed by placing the sonographic instrument inside the woman’s vagina.
BASICALLY THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT IS RE-ENFORCING RAPE CULTURE AND MAKING IT ACCEPTABLE TO TELL A WOMAN WHAT SHE CAN AND CAN’T DO WITH HER BODY
OUR AMERICAN SOCIETY IS TEACHING WOMEN THAT,
“THEIR BODIES ARE NOT THEIR OWN, BUT IS FOR MEN’S PLEASURE”
“AND WE AS WOMEN ARE AT RISK ALL THE TIME.”
I can’t be the only one who is terrified.
