    I’m starting to wonder if all this insane shit about punishing women over reproductive health care is an attempt to make domestic abuse acceptable.

    Like I get it, not having control over someone you have shaky trust in doesn’t feel good, but maybe it’s not about control and it’s about that lack of trust.

      Given that they’re trying to do away with no-fault divorce and one-party divorce, your theory is the natural outcome they seek.
