Erica deconstructs the arbitrary limits we place on reproductive choices and challenges the stigma around abortion, especially when you need more than one. “I remember saying to him, ‘I can't do a third one. Like, three abortions? Non-negotiable — I'm not doing that.’ Why’s there a number? It shouldn't matter. And I talked myself out of it and was like, ‘Erica, don't be ridiculous. That's the patriarchy speaking. You do what you gotta do. It's not a big deal. Like, people get their wisdom teeth out every day. If you need an abortion, you get an abortion.’”
