it’s true. there could possibly be regret. but i can’t understand why it’s someone else’s problem what MY regret is. people are so good at imposing their ideas on others.
you must want children; you will not be whole without them.
you must not abort; you will be a murderer.
you must not sterilize yourself (especially if you are young); you will regret it.
once a woman told me that they don’t allow young women to get a tubal ligation because they felt that they were too immature to truly understand what it meant. i’m sure all the pregnant 14 year old’s completely understand the burden of birthing a child. i’m 24 and i can’t choose to permanently rid myself of the ability to bear children because i’m too young, but a 14 year old has the right to bring life into the world regardless of age, capacity or thought. the same woman argued that it was not natural. i read somewhere that rabbits can sometimes absorb their litters if their warrens are over populated. it happens in nature, what could be more natural?
i’m not weird. i’m not a lesbian. i’m not empty. i just want to make a choice have it respected.
