having observed the calls going to mike pence's office as a result of the insane new indiana woman-hating gestational slaver bill, I think things should go one step further. Each and every woman in the state who is still menstruating should take her used products to the governor's office to be given to him. since he is so fixated on women's reproductive activities, I think it only appropriate for him to be the recipient of some of the products of those activities.
as was pointed out in a thread earlier this week, apparently there is going to be a new line of employment called "the period police". let us make certain that those people have very busy jobs.

I was 8 weeks late for my period and I need to know what the laws is, just in case I spontaneously aborted. Should I send my kotex and tampons to a mortician, buy a cemetery plot and have a funeral? Can I go ahead and bury them in the back yard, using a rock for a headstone? I have never been very regular with my periods and go through this at least 2 or 3 times a year. DO I have to pay for a funeral each time? I can't afford that, so I will relinquish my parental rights to them and send them to the government to bury in a paupers grave.
Thank you ever so much for your unrelenting concern over my menses. Should I send you my doctor's name so he can fill you in on all my medical history or is it just my uterus you are so enthralled with? I have a small (the Dr says it is a cyst) lump on my right leg, maybe it is a zygote that fell out of my uterus and implanted there. Should I go ahead and have it removed and sent to you for burial, just in case?

(114,060 posts)I had a miscarriage years ago; my doctor told me that a miscarriage is nature's way of dealing with a mistake. Something was not "right" and that birth was not meant to be There was no idiocy about that mess being a "human" with basic rights.. It was nature taking care of a problem. Pro-life has NOTHING to do with miscarriages....That is insane.
