Erasing women from the abortion debate

[Ambroise]

The reaction from some on the left to the new laws on abortion in some states in the US seems to have been to tell women not to use the word women. This article explores why this is problematic.

It's an attempt to dismantled women as a class. So instead of being women, some of us are uterus havers, or pregnant people.

We won't all experience pregnancy, infertility, unwanted pregnancy and termination of pregnancy, but we all have the potential to. And thats what links us all. We don't benefit from subdividing ourselves up into different classes.

It must be frustrating for trans men to feel excluded, but instead saying 'uterus havers' it's clearer to say 'women and trans men' where appropriate. But is that really the issue? Do trans men really believe that women fighting for the right to terminate a pregnancy are purposefully excluding them from the same right?

I think the pressure is really coming from male people who want to remove the link between 'women' and female biology.

when Planned Parenthood's first tweet tonight is about 'trans people deserve health care too' you know that the trans-activist agenda is an infiltration which aims to emasculate (!) women's rights...

Just watched the news and it looked like one of the protesters in Atlanta had a placarď saying - "abortion laws kill pregnant people".

I saw someone on Twitter today say something along the lines of “allowing men into womanhood dilutes it for born women and makes our biological reality incidental.
When our biology becomes a mere drop in the ocean of womanhood, then men find it easier to take away, enforce limits and change laws.”
