There is something else, which I was reminded of yesterday and had completely forgotten about.

A lot of you might not know this, but forced sterilization is legal at the federal level in the USA. Women are very often denied sterilization in the USA if they want it, usually with the argument that "a man might not like that you have been sterilized," but you can in fact force sterilization on people without facing penalties, so long as the person is... "unfit."

Why? Because the Supreme Court ruled on it.

It's good to know that they have their priorities in order.

It's a problem in other 1st world nations as well:

It would not be a problem if we did not attach a dozen asterisks to people's rights to make decisions about their own bodies.
