The Personal Freedom at the Heart of Reproductive Rights
Imagine living in a world where politicians debate how many organs a woman must lose before receiving life-saving care. This isn't dystopian fiction-it's America after the fall of Roe v. Wade. Jessica Valenti's "Abortion" arrives as both battle cry and survival guide, cutting through decades of apologetic language to deliver a fundamental truth: abortion isn't just healthcare-it's freedom. And contrary to anti-abortion rhetoric, abortion creates lives rather than ending them. Valenti's own daughter Layla wouldn't exist without the abortion that allowed Valenti to meet her future husband and build her family on her own terms. This perspective flips the script on those who ask what remarkable babies might have been born, never considering that women themselves might change the world if given the chance to determine their own reproductive futures. The facts speak volumes: one in four American women will have an abortion, 99% don't regret it, and most feel relief afterward. Any negative emotions typically stem from community stigma rather than the procedure itself. Both procedural and medication abortions are remarkably safe-safer than Tylenol or Viagra-with studies of over 124,000 medication abortions finding more than 99% of patients experienced no serious complications.
