In recent days, we’ve witnessed a chilling wave of legislation sweeping across states like Ohio and Georgia, where bans on abortions after just six weeks have been enacted—before many even realize they’re pregnant. Missouri has upped the ante with an eight-week limit, and Alabama has taken a horrifying leap by outlawing all abortions, even criminalizing those who seek or provide them.
It feels like we’re trapped in a real-life horror flick, and the hypocrisy of the so-called ‘pro-life’ movement is enough to make us want to tear our hair out. Let’s be honest: this was never really about valuing life.
The Irony of Bodily Autonomy
If it truly was about life, the death penalty wouldn’t exist. And isn’t it ironic that a deceased individual has more bodily autonomy than a pregnant woman? While Alabama champions the idea of “life,” their actions speak volumes about their true priorities.
Compassionate Measures for Lowering Abortion Rates
If these advocates genuinely cared about lowering abortion rates, there are far more effective and compassionate measures they could support. Once that baby is born, however, their interest seems to vanish. And heaven forbid you try to breastfeed in public—talk about a double standard.
True Concern for Life
If they were truly concerned, wouldn’t they apply the same zeal to gun control? Instead, we find ourselves sharing our most intimate experiences surrounding miscarriages, abortions, and sexual assault just to plead for basic human respect.
Empathy and Actionable Solutions
What we really need to say is that true support for life involves empathy, understanding, and actionable solutions—not just rhetoric.

Conclusion
In summary, the so-called pro-life movement often reveals a troubling hypocrisy, where the focus shifts dramatically once a child is born—highlighting a need for genuine support and solutions that prioritize human dignity and well-being.
