There's a Twitter hashtag, too: #Savita.

I'm pretty sure I don't need to say how I feel about this.



Horrifying! It scares me to think that strangers (mostly middle aged white males) could potentially regulate my uterus.  So far here in the US they don't want to pay for birth control bc apparently unwanted children is a good thing. And all I read about in the papers now is the reversal of Roe v Wade (for those of you outside the US that's the case that legalized abortion).  I chose not to have an abortion when I had an unplanned, and to be honest unwanted pregnancy, but I don't think anyone has the right to chose for anyone else.  My decision was right for me and I love my daughter.  But some women just wouldn't be able to handle it, and that's ok, too I think.
