I don't usually get political....and this is not political. Why I am pro choice has nothing to do with politics, and everything, EVERYTHING to do with the fundamental right I believe all women have - to control not only their own bodies, but their own destinies.
If I must have a political stance on abortion, it's this: what I do with my body is none of the govenment's business. What the college student in Iowa, the young mother in Indiana, the professor in New York, the rape victim in Florida...what they do is none of the government's business either.
But recognizing that there are those who think it is, that there are those who seek to take away the fragile autonomy that we have over our bodies, our lives, our futures...that is our business.
Use your voice. Or lose your choice.
