I'm Not A Fucking Incubator

Ohio “Heartbeat” bill could ban abortion just 18 days after conception
Quick show of hands, all you moms out there:How many of you knew you were pregnant EIGHTEEN FUCKING DAYS after conception?
This is it. I'm done. From now on my stance on abortion is as follows:
My body, my choice. Your body, your choice. I don't care what you do with your body so long as you don't infringe on my body while you're doing it. Every woman should have access to an abortion at any point during her pregnancy for any reason she chooses to have it. PERIOD. What is growing inside of her isn't alive until it takes a breath outside her body. Until then, it is a fucking parasite and has ZERO rights that infringe upon the woman who is carrying it.
No more fucking arguments about when a life becomes a life, because it leads to shit like this. A life becomes a life when the woman carrying it CHOOSES to bring it into the world and not one moment before. PERIOD.
It only becomes a life when it is breathing outside of the woman. NOT when it could theoretically take a breath. When it is actually fucking BREATHING.
If you don't like my definition of life, fuck off. Seriously. Fuck off. Either I have the right to say what is done with my body AND WHEN or I don't. If I do, I'm a human being. If I don't, I'm a broodmare whose only purpose is propagation of the species. If I don't, I should never be heard from and stay in my house, pumping out child after child with no other thought or reason to exist.
The moment someone says, "Abortion should ONLY be allowed IF," it turns every woman into a beggar for basic human dignity and respect. It makes female rights contingent upon what someone else feels is moral. It takes my body and turns it into a vessel for someone else to fill with whatever they fuck they feel like putting in there.
Either I'm a person or I'm an incubator.
Try and make me into an incubator. I fucking dare you.
Try.

The rage, it isn't dissipating here.

It benefits those in power if women are burdened with too many children to feed and that they ave more people than jobs. Well at least until the masses have an uprising against the super rich overlords.
