So I love the pro-choice phrase, “No uterus, no opinion,” and yet society accuses MEN of thinking with their genitals.

propaganda-for-life:

But the uterus isn’t genitalia. That’s the vulva. Thanks for showing that anti-choicers don’t understand reproduction.

let’s pretend for a sec that “thinking *with* your genitals” isn’t already a ridiculous and problematic phrase for the sake of a point. that point being that thinking withyour genitals/reproductive organs is not the same as thinking about your genitals/reproductive organs and about what is best for them and for yourself.

furthermore, we could talk about how this same society still excuses cis men for “thinking with their genitals” even after using it as a criticism, and this society ultimately blames ~slutty mcsluts~ for enabling them. because, you know, “(cis) men think with their genitals” basically just gives them a pass from personal responsibility and reinforces this bullshit idea about how they just can’t control themselves or shouldn’t be expected to and boys will be boys~.

meanwhile, when cis women supposedly “think with their genitals” here, it’s when they’re thinking about their bodily autonomy and reproductive rights. it’s when they want to have responsibility for their health and body for themselves. but ooh, of course that’s wrong of them.

and finally, some men have uteri. so for some men, “no uterus, no opinion” applies in order to protect their bodily autonomy and reproductive rights. so, ultimately, it isn’t about thinking with your organs. it’s about reclaiming your rights and protecting yourself and telling people without uteri to mind their own fucking business.
