When I was young …

You’re writing your autobiography. What’s your opening sentence?

When I was young I thought we had this shit figured out.

The battle wasn’t over but we had admitted that women are autonomous human creatures … yada yada yada. Sadly, madly, infuriatingly, age has shown me that a whole bunch of people continue to define a woman only as a meat sack that surrounds a baby-making box.

Not just an opening sentence — an opening salvo …

      1. I think that for any woman with means, she will still get her abortion. It’ll be more hassle for her, but she’ll be able to travel.
        It’s those without the means to travel, who’ll be denied.
        It’s an attack on poverty also.
