Once that child is born and added to the GDP, those who decry abortion couldn't care less about that child after birth. American Sharia Law. Your oppression is their profession

Woke Nora @realnorac.bsky.social · 25/02/2025

My daughter's best friend had much the same thing happen, only she had her 2nd son and almost died due to complications. She had the boy in one of the Church owned hospitals & when she asked to have her tubes tied after TWO KIDS, they told her a resounding "NO"!

Koramaire @koramaire.bsky.social · 24/02/2025

At 30, with 5 children, wanted my tubes tied after my daughter was born. Doc said "Maybe your husband needs to be here for that decision". I wasn't married. She said no, so I found another doctor who would. 13 years later, no more children, exactly what I wanted and my mind hasn't changed.

It's generally about forcing what they call "morals" onto other people, ideally people different from you. Obv. it never applies to them. And that nice feeling of excerting control over people, invading their most sacred spaces. The only power these "law" makers have in their sad little lifes.

even after roe, women were denied tubal ligation if dr. didn't deem them old enough to make that decision

Kimberbee @kimberbee64.bsky.social · 25/02/2025

My doctor asked me in front of my hubby if I really wanted a tubal and my answer was “Unless he hops up on the table for a vasectomy, the answer is yes”

beena15.bsky.social @beena15.bsky.social · 25/02/2025

I got my tubal right after my second child was born…I had to lie and say I wasn’t married (I was) so I didn’t have to get his “permission “ . The doctor and nurse tried to talk me out of it by saying “what if you meet someone else” or “if your kids die”.

Sporadical @sporadical.bsky.social · 25/02/2025

I have heard cancer patients say they needed husband’s approval for hysterectomy or chemo treatments because “what if he wants children later”. Like women are just baby machines that can’t forego motherhood in exchange for her own life

This should be a woman's right and decision by herself and with her doctor. No one, including a husband has a right to tell a woman what to do with her body. If a man wanted a dozen children it should have been a discussion before the marriage.

Devlyn Angel, ETQ 😈😇 @devlynangel.bsky.social · 25/02/2025

I was 22. Just had my 3rd kid, middle of divorce. They wouldn't tie my tubes either. Said I wasn't old enough to decide I didn't want more kids. (But I was old enough to keep having them?) What if I met a man & "couldn't bear him children"? He wouldn't want me anymore. I didn't have any more.

In 1975, I took care of a woman who had just delivered her tenth child, wanted a tubal, was refused because her husband refused to sign.

My niece had an IQ of 71. Got pregnant at 15/16. Had two more kids right after. Tried to get tube's tied at 19. They wouldn't allow till she was 21. At 21, when she had her 4th kid, she had her tube's tied right after the birth.

Women have zero healthcare rights anymore. First, they were sterilizing young women with mental issues. Now, they won't let women get sterilized unless they approve. This is pathetic!
