How can overturning Roe v Wade be an assault on women’s rights if you can’t tell us what a woman is?

The thing is, Ze Hell Wire, it’s not ‘can’t tell you what a woman is’; it’s you and all like you wanting to hear that woman means cis woman and only that!
We won’t tell you that because it’s not that simple, so you insist “They don’t know what a woman is!!”

They’ll die from botched abortions and from dangerous pregnancies and in childbirth. These people don’t give a shit about any of that. In fact, some of them think we deserve it because it’s supposed to be the way that *humanity pays for Eve’s sins. Some of them think the fact that we were pregnant in the first place is solely our fault and we should be punished.
They disguise this as protecting children but it’s really about punishing, and that’s all.
*at least those of us that can get pregnant and share the same body parts as her.
How can you claim to care a whit about women and the definition of the word if you're fine with dooming the majority of them to dying from botched, unsafe abortions, forcing them through pregnancies they do not want and dooming them to a life spent caring for a human being they didn't want to create? Do you think they'll stand there in the ruins of their dreams, crying a happy little tear because at least the people who restricted her access to healthcare only thought cis women counts as women?
A woman is a person, a sentient being that recognizes themselves and their existence with the capacity for thought and emotion. With the right to life, liberty, security of person, and dignity. Who they are is for them to determine. A person is not property, their mind and body not something to be broken and remolded at the pleasure of another without it being a crime against humanity.
Not so hard. And I think it’s a description that sits better with people than the unspoken definition you seem to be using: A womb that must maintain itself in service to the expansion of its tribe or lose its purpose and place.
Now you tell me: What is a person to you and what definition of rights do you use that they are inalienable to some and a nonsensical privilege to be revoked for others?
Disingenuous bitch is being disingenuous, story at eleven.
People like Liz don’t argue out of good faith and are effectively bullies, so it’s better to dismiss them entirely than try to reach out and try to engage with them in good faith. It’s a waste of your time. Treat bullies like what they are, folks.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
