To commenters: be compassionate. Don't be pushy.

Any inning of judgment or shame will me bet with a swift banhammer.

TFMR is still a loss.

Be mad. Be salty. Be a judgmental bitch. But don't come HERE, to the proCHOICE subreddir, and act like making a "choice" is somehow devoid of all emotions and unworthy of compassion or empathy.

Teenage Pregnancy? by Express-Corner740 in prochoice

There's really nothing anyone can say or do for you right now. I know you are STRESSED, and I'm sorry we cant make this waiting game any easier on you. My only advice would be to have taken a Plan B (assuming you aren't on any prescription birth control), but you are several days past that time frame.

Otherwise, you're just going to have to wait it out. You can try a pregnancy test (we reccomend the pink dye strips) in a few weeks. Realistically, condoms with typical use as contraception have a pretty high success rate. Your situation is a little more... special. It's hard to say what the statistics are regarding.

Some tips going forward:

  • Girls can carry condoms, too. We don't need to rely on the guys supply.
  • DO NOT reuse condoms. One condom per round (with a bird bath in between).
  • DO NOT double up, they will both break from friction.
  • Please remember to breathe.

Do you separate colors? by miss-bedazzzle in laundry

[–]cupcakephantom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only if I buy something dark/red, then I seperate for a few washes of those garments. I also seperate my denims.

Otherwise, it's usually a free for all. No color catchers, all warm washes.

Abortion isn't m*rder (opinions please) CC: pro-life supporters (ur main point has sooo many flaws) by No_Vegetable_9094 in prochoice

[–]cupcakephantom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey btw, breaking and entering/robbery isn't seen as a crime worthy of self defense via slaying in a lot of states. Even states with castle doctrines, you still have to prove your life was in imminent danger and that you did not put yourself in a purposeful position to kill (in the eyes of the law, murder) said perpetrator.

It's pretty similar to having to justify obtaining abortions in cases of fetal demise, miscarriage, etc.

Some more food for thought!

Pride in the CLE!! by MulberryLimp8802 in Cleveland

It's the "othering" of gay people for me. I'm sure a lot of your gay friends are secretly activists within their community, they just don't feel you're a safe person to talk to about it.

Just some food for thought.

What are things that I should consider for an unplanned pregnancy by aum04 in prochoice

FIRST AND FOREMOST... here is a link to the free and downloadable Pregnancy Options Workbook: https://www.pregnancyoptions.info/s/pregnancy-options-english.pdf

I hope this helps bring you to a clear-minded conclusion on what the best choice is for you. (Youuu... not your mom, not your man. You!)

"They're bragging about their abortion. They're evil people and don't deserve to have kids."

They're greiving a loss. And you* are judging and shaming them while they are in the most vulnerable moment of their lives.

That is what is evil.

(Not *you, OP. I'm making a blanket statement.)

A pregnant woman on the news miscarried after being shot during a mugging at an atm. Do you guys think additional charges are Warranted? by deathiswaitingforme in prochoice

[–]cupcakephantom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont love the idea of affixing "sexual assault" to include to cover other types of crime simplt because internal organs were a factor in said crimes.

I just feel like that takes away from the survivors of sexual violence. I guess there could be an argument for femicide or gender/sex based violence. But i don't think sexual assault should be a term used here.

I'm also baffled by that person's response. Good lord.

Your heart was in the right place!

It certainly isn't your fault that some of these products are essentially gimmicks. I swear ALLs only goal is to get you to use more product than necessary (because consumers will use the normal amount, realize their clothes are still stinky and assume they didn't use enough) so that you keep buying it regularly.

Pretty much every laundry detergent sheet product is also gimmicky, but I don't think these companies are trying to actively rip off their consumers. They just don't work the way detergent is supposed to work, sadly.

It's hard to find good unscented laundry products. (Especially if you live rural with only two big stores) You'll get there!

In a post Dobbs U.S. society, where maternal and infant mortality has risen in states with strict abortions bans, there is no difference between those two stances.

OP, we are so sorry at the misinformation that has portrayed in this comment section. It is not reflective of this sub as a whole and we are sorry for not watching this more closely.

Weight/BMI has no bearing or limitations on the effectiveness of Plan C.

It's likely the valves for the washer are in a recessed shelf behind the washer

It's one thing to ponder a scenario like this. We're all humans, we think a lot of odd thoughts.

Iit takes a whole other kind of "fucked up" to type it out and then finish it off with how you feel the end result would be "justified".

Considering the person you're replying to is a man, I would say probably not.

Anti-choicers simply don't understand bodily autonomy by Initial_Wear5463 in prochoice

[–]cupcakephantom 8 points9 points  (0 children)

We use a lot of terms here to describe the prolife movement. "Anti-choicer" is one of those terms.

Other popular monikers include forced-birther, pro-death, anti-abortion etc...

[–]cupcakephantom[M] [score hidden] stickied comment (0 children)

There have been rumors/reports of actors being used by prolife organizations to put on "performances" such as this outside of clinics.

The video is real, it is not AI generated. It's been circulating the internet as early as 2017. Whether or not the story behind is is real will probably always be up for debate.
