Michelle Wolf Speaks Truth To Power

With the announcement of the retirement of Justice Kennedy two weeks ago, one of the questions with his upcoming retirement was if Roe V. Wade would remain as is or be dissolved.

In a recent episode of Michelle Wolf’s Netflix series, The Break With Michelle Wolf,  not only does she lay out the hypocrisy of the pro-life moment, but she also points out that the pro-life movement is anti-women.

Is abortion a choice? Not always. Sometimes aborting a pregnancy is the only way to save the mother’s life or prevent a child from not living a full life because of one or more potential disabilities.

The fact is that for many generations, women did not have choices like men did. We were supposed to marry, bear children and keep a home. That was it.

From my perspective, the feminist movement comes down to one word: choice. Whether it reproductive choices, career choices or any other choices that women make to take control of their own destinies, there are still far too many people (both men and women) who would prefer that women stay in our little boxes and not ask question about why we cannot make our own decisions about how to live.
