Wow to think that all woman have fought for that we are still fighting for.

I am very vocal pro choice I believe that every woman has the right to choose what happens to her body and when.  I was horrified to read today an article about the fight woman in America are going to have.  And that is the right to birth control yeap you read that right BIRTH CONTROL.  In the year 2012 woman in America are having their rights stripped away by the MEN in power.

Read the article here http://therumpus.net/2012/03/the-alienable-rights-of-women/ it is a rather sad state of affairs when men in power are trying to tell a woman what she can and can't do with her uterus.  Will the woman of America rise up and say no?

Recently there was a congressional hearing on birth control and not one woman was invited to join the panel it was 8 men.  A young woman was called a slut for saying that she should have the right to cheap birth control

A state representative says woman should carry dead fetues to term because cows and pigs do it

why aren't woman rising up to tar and feather him?  You are being compared to cattle and pigs woman aren't live stock we are human beings and we have rights we are not incubators we are not brood mares we are equals.  I don't tell men that after a certain number of children they help conceive they should have a vasectomy.

So here I am asking the woman of America to rise up and vote the people who want to make your choice hard or damn near impossible OUT OF OFFICE.  Why do they get to decide? Why are they trying to put their beliefs on your uterus?  Why are you allowing them to?

In Australia when our health minister tried this we rose up we told him no.
