Why women are calling Indiana’s governor to tell him about their periods

It’s now more difficult in Indiana to get an abortion, and all miscarried fetuses must be buried or cremated.

Emily, of Indianapolis, who telephoned the governor’s office but only wanted her first name used in this story, told BuzzFeed News she called to query the specifics of the law.

“I asked them, as an ovulating and sexually active woman, was I compelled to examine my menses every month to ensure I hadn’t miscarried (as we can expel a fertilized egg at any point) or is this something I needed to involve my doctor in,” she said. “Or even better was there a list of state-approved doctors to do this for me so that I was ensuring complete compliance.”

“I do plan on calling again every day that I think of a question the bill raises or I have a reproductive concern,” she said, “to make sure I’m getting all of the information regarding my state’s reproductive bans/laws.”

    For some reason, conservatives are obsessed with everybody else’s sex lives.
    It’s weird because they don’t care about society, human life, wildlife, the environment, healthcare or the poor.

      maybe they are jealous…..think about Santorum who wants each state to decide IF birth control can even be sold in the state…..not the doctor or the woman or her spouse should decide. And he insists that intercourse should only be performed for procreation……think HE has a fun-filled sex life?

      It’s not that they “don’t care” about those things. It’s that they “care” about it and want to regulate it. Not regulate the things affecting it, mind you. They want to regulate health care, make sure only the “right” people are getting it. They want to regulate wildlife, make sure it’s not getting in the way of their religious beliefs by exhibiting behaviour contrary to their beliefs. And they want to regulate poverty away by making poor people go away.

    I think the women if Indiana should use tampons and collect all residue and mail it to the Governor so he can inspect it himself……after all they are law abiding and want to comply with the law…..tell him that you don’t have the money for burying or cremating and you need government assistance to do it.

    Spontaneous abortion is a natural part of human reproduction. It’s up to 50% of all fertilizations which means that most women have had one and lots of women have had many.

    I’ve mentioned this to pro-lifers many times and they have no answer for it. It has huge theological problems for Christian pro-lifers.
