  • Research shows strangulation is never a safe practice, despite a widespread belief it can be performed safely. Though it often leaves no visible injury, oxygen deprivation, even for very short moments, causes changes to the fragile structures of the brain.

    Multiple studies have specifically shown brain changes in women who have been repeatedly “choked” during sex, including markers for brain damage and disruptions in brain hemispheres linked to depression and anxiety.

    To be honest that actually seems like reason enough even if it is genuinely consensual









  • Personally I believe that even if we agree that a foetus is a living human right from the moment of conception, no human has the right to force another human to use their own body to sustain them. I can’t demand that you let me connect us together with an IV so I can use your blood even if my life depends on it. Never mind that those “edge cases” are actually extremely important to a lot of people.

    Buffer zone laws exist because those protests consistently target people seeking help in vulnerable situation, not the people with any power to actually make the changes that the protestors want. Your right to protest must be balanced against people’s right to access medical care.

    None, and I do mean none, of the things you mentioned in the third and fourth paragraphs of your comment were brought about by abortion. Are you seriously trying to suggest that any of those things were better in, say, Victorian era Britain?

    If those were the motivations behind abortion it’d be far, far easier for them to promote contraception instead. Why would this sinister lobby bother waiting for conception?

    The ADF also has serious problems beyond just the abortion debate, though. Nobody should be associating with a group that has chosen to argue in court that barring people from adopting children on the grounds that they’re Jewish is okay.
