I'm now on the board of NARAL Prochoice Virginia

This makes me very happy! I'll be attending my first board meeting on the 23'd and, of course, will be at Luna Fest on April 7th.

It's no secret that I'm pro-choice. I mean, it's not like I haven't written about it several times.

Most women I know have had at least one time in her life where she has waited desperately for her period to come --- and thought every moment until it did about what she would do if it didn't.

Other women, like Cecily, have desperately wanted the children they were pregnant with, and faced a choice of abortion or death.

Abortion must be kept safe and legal. Contraceptives must be kept safe and legal. And everybody should be taught (age appropriately) how babies are made. And if they are in puberty: how contraceptives ACTUALLY work, and how to use them.

I'll be posting a link to NARAL's site in my sidebar later, along with a link to donate to them.

  1. congratulations! go, liz!

    i started college in 1975, and never did i think that abortion rights, much less contraception rights and basic women's health care, would still be in issue all these years later.
