The roots of adoption stigma

August 10, 2015/0 Comments/in Adoption & Foster Care, Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

Above: the socially acceptable face of adoption Adoption is a loving option. Many people wait years before they can adopt a baby. Adoption is the greatest gift you could give to a waiting family. Adoption is noble, courageous, beautiful. It seems to me that American society accepts these messages… but only when the biological mother […]

An open letter to Planned Parenthood

August 5, 2015/0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

[Today’s guest post is by Zak Schmoll.] Dear Planned Parenthood, There have clearly been plenty of factual statements, opinions, mischaracterizations, assessments and judgments about your fetal tissue donation program recently, and admittedly the responses from your organization and defenders of it have been rather unconvincing. The main charge that seems to be being brought against […]

Website Under Deconstruction: Orlando Women’s Center

August 4, 2015/0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

SPL supporter Margot D. suggested that we take a look at the Orlando Women’s Center as part of our “Website Under Deconstruction” series. Here’s the first thing we saw: The discount offer isn’t surprising; abortion is a business, and there’s significant competition in central Florida. But a three-minute abortion?!? That’s not a decision between a woman and her doctor, […]

Time to redirect Planned Parenthood money to more deserving providers

August 3, 2015/0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

In the wake of the growing “baby parts” scandal, the U.S. Senate is expected to vote today on a measure to defund Planned Parenthood and redirect that taxpayer money to legitimate, deserving women’s health care providers. Planned Parenthood apologists will tell you that this measure will deprive women of care. They’re even running advertisements to […]

Only a “Potential” Person?

July 31, 2015/0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Acyutananda

Meme via Live Action [Today’s guest post by Acyutananda is part of our paid blogging program.] “A woman is an actual, living, breathing person, and a zygote/embryo/ fetus is only a potential person.” This statement is a staple feature of discussions about abortion, and the meaning is always that the woman can rightfully abort the […]

Open question for our readers: what do you think of dark humor about abortion? A Secular Pro-Life supporter poses the question in reaction to this meme which is making the rounds on facebook (along with several similar ones): New Wave Feminists’ parody videos riffing on the Planned Parenthood baby parts scandal push the envelope even […]

How I left the pro-choice movement and found true liberation

July 28, 2015/0 Comments/in Uncategorized, Your Stories /by Guest Blogger

Above: pro-choice counter-protesters hold altered signs denying post-abortive parents’ pain [Today’s guest author writes anonymously.] I was atheist, feminist, left, libertarian and pro-choice since conception. My mother was an English woman who had a weekend affair with my African American father, and then raised me on her own. She was independent, liberal and proud. She […]

House bill targets same-sex marriage, hits single parenthood

July 24, 2015/0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

Via the Huffington Post: In wake of the U.S. Supreme Court decision in favor of same-sex marriage, Republicans are pushing legislation that aims to protect Americans who oppose these unions on religious grounds. But critics say the language is so broad, the bill creates a license to discriminate that would let employers fire women for […]
