Lisa Needham issues a warning: they're coming for birth control next:
"On X, Heritage’s official account posted last year that 'a good place to start would be a feminist movement against the pill and … returning the consequentiality to sex.'
"Religious conservatives are calling for a return to a world where sex isn’t recreational or for pleasure but is instead fraught with consequences — namely, pregnancies that can’t be terminated even when the pregnant person’s life is in danger."
"They are coming for birth control pills (and other forms of contraception). They are coming for the very concept of recreational sex — sex for fun (which, yes, partnered and married people do too!). Sex, they argue, should come with 'consequences.' Or, as the Heritage Foundation put it, conservatives should focus on 'restoring the consequentiality to sex.'”
@wdlindsy Any word of shutting Hooters, banning porn mags, strip shows, etc? Of course not. It’s all about controlling women. Embryos have more rights than women .
@harriettmb Of course no plans in those directions. As you say, it's all about controlling women. Keep those erectile dysfunction treatments coming, but make sure women have difficulty buying Ella and mifepristone.
@wdlindsy Ostensibly religious conservatives, but otherwise correct. When the essence of a 'religion' boils down to our word binds you but not us there's no divinity involved. @CassandraZeroCovid
