Last week, the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade because it will never personally affect them so who cares and declared states could make their own decisions about whether or not uterus-owners should be allowed bodily autonomy. States across the country immediately said, “Bodily autonomy what? Anyone with a vagina does not deserve such a luxury!” Abortion was outlawed or made extremely difficult to access in more than half the states where lawmakers obviously love babies so much they want to force individuals to have more of them but then also not pay these living incubators livable wages or provide affordable housing or guarantee family leave or take steps to make sure pregnant individuals survive childbirth or keep said babies from getting shot when they start school. In Ohio, a 10-year-old sexual assault victim found to be pregnant was denied an abortion because we live in the Upside Down now.
In today’s episode, Amanda and Jenna talk to Dr. Paula Cody, Medical Director of Adolescent Medicine at the University of Wisconsin. She works with adolescents and young adults with a special interest in eating disorders, sexuality and reproductive health, menstrual disorders and high-risk behaviors. (Follow her @TeenDocCody on Twitter.) Dr. Cody talked safe abortion and what that looks like now—is Plan C safe and when and how do you get it? Is traveling across state lines an option? Is she afraid of being prosecuted for—god forbid—providing reproductive care to young people?
