choice


All the battles over contraception coverage that have older men inappropriately talking about the reasons women use contraception, as well as the heated debates about new laws that humiliate and isolate women while they are making these very difficult decisions.
A recent study from the Guttmacher Institute showed that HALF of all reproductive age women now live in states that are hostile to abortion!  This map below shows the change over time in states hostility to policies related to contraception and terminations. 
It may also be a map of where I am applying to residencies next year.


Shrinking Middle Ground

and just in case you haven't been following along - Doonesbury is running a series on the new laws surrounding a woman's right to make reproductive decisions that is obviously now being censored.  Check out the censored strips on Slate blog.
