It’s extremely unethical for the government to control our bodies but please “pro-lifers”,continue to tell us why a non-sentient, heartless, lungless, unthinking foetus deserves more rights than the mother.

That why pro-lifers say at a heartbeat. That is around 10 weeks. Let's keep the exceptions, the exception. Like health issues, growth defects and ofcourse the legal cases of age and force.
I feel like we're going backwards, in the worst timelines

Well what do you expect. Men have a way of changing things for the worst when they feel that they dont have privileges in society. It's no surprise that you have men talking about the prehistoric age or Armageddon in conversations about women only needing them for reproduction in society.

As an SA survivor who has PTSD, depression, anxiety, and mild D.I.D from years of abuse, I know the struggle the mom went through. I never became pregnant and after one attack I had to take the morning after pill to make sure I wouldn't become pregnant. My younger sister has had an ectopic pregnancy and had to have treatment so she wouldn't die, then she was pregnant with twins and had a miscarriage of one twin, the doctors helped and were able to save the other baby who is now a beautiful four year old girl.
My mums BFF found out she was gonna have a R baby & of course, didnt want it but was forced to by her CHURCH! She was miserable & had a complicated traumatic pregnancy & post-partum depression. The family of the man who assalted her received FULL CUSTODY of the baby minutes after birth cuz she had depression!! She never left her home again & was not allowed to EVER see that baby again!!
Loving you mum means not wanting her to hurt.
Exactly!
