No one owes you their trauma to justify the need for abortion.
"I think the general public is uncomfortable talking about abortion, but not just abortion — about reproductive health in general: sex, sexuality, and pregnancy," Bracey Sherman tells POPSUGAR."We don't normalize these conversations, so people are uncomfortable talking about it." This discomfort can be compounded by the antiabortion movement, which brings morality into the picture, she adds.
"We shouldn't have to trot out all of our reasons or any of our reasons when it comes to talking about why we need abortions." Despite good intentions, citing dire cases in justifying the need for abortion access only adds to this stigma."They don't necessarily understand that they're unintentionally creating stigma toward the majority of people who don't have those experiences," Bracey Sherman says."It's OK if someone just doesn't want to be pregnant; that's an OK reason, too.
Arguing that cases of sexual assault or incest are the most justifiable grounds for abortion also perpetuates the idea that someone with a uterus only has autonomy over their body when they've experienced some sort of trauma, or when someone else has violated it first. But there is no hierarchy to bodily autonomy. It's not something to be earned; it's an inherent human right.
