This was something I had to do after hearing about the leaked supreme court documents.
Now, to be blunt, I've been a big enjoyer of pregnancy art and the like for many years. And, well, over the years, I've had to contront myself over my beliefs on motherhood and pregnancy. And, I believe motherhood is a beautiful thing. Pregnancy is something I wish I could experience.
However, it should NOT be forced on someone unwilling or unable to carry a child to term, for any reason. I could sit here and list all the "legitimate" reasons a mother might need an abortion, but frankly, someone's reason for one is nobody's business, and shouldn't be used to try and gatekeep people over any "edge cases" that anti-choice individuals use as strawwomen in their arguments.
And I know I'm only going to get even more controversial over this statement, but while it is a huge issue for women nationwide, it's not just a women's issue. It also affects many trans and gender non-conforming individuals who also need access to abortion should they need access to it.
I used myself and Zoey to try and drive the point home. Because even though I would adore being pregnant, and Zoey is literally the child of a fertility deity, we both believe that PREGNANCY SHOULD NOT BE FORCED ON ANYONE!
Anyways, I'm calling on other pregnancy fans to spread this message with their own art or posts, if possible.
Sorry this cut the queue in front of owed commissions, but this was important to me.
