    Men don't need to make laws about a woman's body. Period. We know best. It's for us to handle that!

    En prisión por un aborto espontáneo ? por que no poner en prisión también a esos hombres que no se protegen y ocasionan embarazos no deseados . En esos casos la responsabilidad debería ser compartida porque solo es culpable la mujer
