Whoo! We win!

Health officials tell doctors to stop being assholes about IUD insertion pain. [gift link below. you're welcome.]

My only quibble: the doctor they interview a lot describes the huge outcry from women as 'stamping feet.'

That's fucking sexist as hell and makes it look like we're all throwing hissy fits* and snits when we have legit anger about our medical needs being IGNORED by a largely apathetic, sexist, racist, and fucked up institution.

Guess I haven't done a real #introduction yet. Hi all!

I'm Leah, and I've substituted gay pirate obsession for having a personality. Besides the #ofmd fandom and all the lovely people in it, I greatly enjoy #battlebots, #kaiju movies, #scifi, #parrots, #corvids, #cats, and #karaoke. I'm a big ol' #reprohealth and #reprorights nerd too.

So. Yeah. Long live this little old-school home that makes the internet feel kinda fun again. Can we bring back GOOD search engines while we're at it?

Know what?
The state of my womb shouldn't be able to change my legal status.

And yet that's what's happening to women in anti-abortion states.

But over the past several decades, evidence has suggested that instead of changing the sexual behavior of teenagers, these laws push many young women into motherhood before they want it. » https://www.propublica.org/article/how-states-limit-teen-access-to-abortion #ReproHealth #ReproJustice
