We recently asked SheSpeaks members how they are feeling about the political climate, any changes in their voting patterns, and major debates on hot topics, like abortion.
Check out these take-aways from our recent surveys below -
Our Voices in Politics
I for one I'm against voting for Biden. As RowVsWade I would like the woman to make her own choice
Yes
I sad that women keep saying if you dont want a baby then don't have sex. Or you know what can happen if you dont use condoms or birth control. God doesn't make mistakes. What if your.12 or 13 year old daughter was raped and got pregnant by some old pedophile? There are other scenarios besides just having sex.
Yes. I believe more people are becoming concerned that the government has too much say on what can be and.can not done to their bodies. If.something doesn't change it will be scary for my daughters generation.
Pretty disgusting to see uneducated pro lifers on this site.
As far as Roe V Wade, it is imperative that all women & women of child bearing age have every single right when it comes to their own bodies. While it does not affect me physically, it affects me morally. I will not vote for anyone who is against Pro choice.
It's surprising that our female concerns are decided primarily by men and politics. Deciding on an abortion is a painful and difficult decision no one wants to have to make. But it should be between a woman and her physician. Not between women and a politician. Also, I'm not surprised that 68% of women surveyed in March of 2023 reported that they felt their voices carry less weight. It's been this way for far too long and the farther right the politicians go, the less we are heard. I've come to realize that in just the last few years how it's getting worse instead of better, and I plan to vote accordingly.
ProLife here! Free birth control (condoms) are available thru Health Departments, even pregnancy tests, With the number of couples who can't have children want them. God doesn't make mistakes!! I do believe that women who do not want kids ever - should be able to get their tubes tied. My oldest daughter who is thirty-five now has tried but the doctors wouldn't do it. When you are married then you also I think have to have your husband's permission! I had to give permission for my husband to have a vasectomy.
this is not an important issue for me. i wouldn't base my vote on this.
It is heartbreaking to me to see how many women do not care about unborn babies. God help us!
Science is prolife. You have sex, there's always a chance of getting pregnant. That's science! Nature wants to create life. So, don't tell me I'm unscientific for wanting a baby that's created from the Science of Sex, to have life. That baby that's made doesn't get a say in whether or not it's born. One can choose not to raise it, just as one had the right NOT to have sex to create it in the first place. Having a child teaches one to be unselfish and giving. Getting rid of life in this way is simply selfish. This separates humans from animals that one can control our primal urges and not create life when one can't or doesn't want to take care of life that's created.
if guns can be legal and secret so can abortions - you want your 2a, give me and the women of this country our First Ammendment!
Every woman has a right to choose. I refuse to be judgemental.
I am pro life along with half the women in the country. Abortion is murder and many women have murdered their unborn children.
I'm also pro-life. A baby is not an organ, and abortions are not healthcare.
