In the latest attempts to smear Planned Parenthood, it has become obvious that the hatred many have for Planned Parenthood has little, if anything, to do with abortion.
If the venom was specifically about abortion procedures or fees charged for processing donated tissue, they wouldn't want to defund Planned Parenthood in states like Oklahoma, where they already do not perform abortions. Texas would not have defunded the Planned Parenthood clinics that did not provide abortions -- which are all run by a different umbrella organization than the few Texas clinics providing abortion services. Louisiana clinics also don't offer abortions, and Jindal is well aware of a syphilis outbreak in his state. Arkansas clinics only provide medical abortion, so they don't donate tissue either.
There is a recurring theme in "right to life" narratives -- the fact that many see pregnancy and childbirth as punishment for sin. The idea isn't new, but when examined from that perspective it's obvious that most of them don't think "good girls" like their daughters will ever need any of Planned Parenthood's services.
Sadly, Anna Duggar's parents learned that's not always true. Still, while the "right to life" movement is busily crafting legislation making infanticide after an abortion procedure a crime punishable by death, their actual agenda is clear to those who look closely.
The battle for reproductive rights has always been a fight against those who think biology should dictate the role of women in society -- a belief often perpetuated by people with a shocking level of ignorance of said biology. The fact many pro-lifers support abortion after "legitimate rape" is a clear demonstration of just how many know the government invasion of the womb isn't about saving unborn children, but about enforcing quite different moral standards indeed. (If you oppose both abortion and the death penalty, congratulations on avoiding another common demonstration of hypocrisy.)
Therefore, I propose that we stop attempting to engage in apologetics for Planned Parenthood that involve mentioning how few of their services are abortion-related. They know, and they don't care. The stories of lives saved by Planned Parenthood don't move them. They probably don't even care that even "righteous" men, having no biological impetus to be conservative about spreading their seed, may continue to engage in behavior that puts the "good girls" they're married to at risk.
Instead, let's start calling them on their real motives -- to keep their own women subservient, and enforce that morality on the rest of society. Planned Parenthood is a symbol of female independence, started by a woman fighting the evils forced childbearing causes, and to them that is very frightening indeed.really have nothing to add the article says it all i think it best you read and draw your own conclusions better to not have my opinion in your head this ones strictly a loner effort that only at this point needs you to kick the tires and discuss after you give it a good going over. good read and God Bless
