Iβm now afraid for reproductive rights in Australia.
Nah. It'll be alright. We don't generally go backwards. We go at a snails pace forward unless it's a pay rise for pollies then it's all speed ahead.
This is generally true. Except for the destruction of medicare, loss of local manufacturing industry, no taxation on our mineral resources, expensive and half useless universities and no consequences for government corruption
I wish I could know it would be ok. We have our own fundies here so things could get dicey
Was pretty fucked up how close the votes were on this matter in South Australia recently - I mean what the fuck, surely that isn't representative of how Australians really view the matter, but I realise more and more how out of touch I am
I really ought to look into a hysterectomy. I don't want kids anyway, but this is certainly an incentive to advocate better for myself lol
