The Abortion Thread
Re: The Abortion Thread
Supreme Court upholds abortion clinic buffer zone. Fascist scum lose another one. Scumbag SCOTUS judges I guess they figured they were unpopular enough and didn't want to give majority voters another reason to throw all republiCONs out of office. Some weak circumstantial evidence the ruling to not take the case was 6-3.

That myth has been busted. Some of the DICKHEADS on this forum make Texas look like Rhode Island by comparison.

Nah. Bunch of pin-dciked losers compensating.
The envy and fear these men have for women and their ultimate power — creators of new humans, is pretty funny, but not amusing.

Re: The Abortion Thread
Speaking of Texas, researchers looked at college enrollments for the top 100 US colleges in the years up to and including 2022. They found that red state colleges saw freshman enrolments down 1% in 2022. Reading this as an early signal that red states were going to have a problem. The scrotus bags of sh*t only ruled against Roe 2 months before the 2022 school year began. The researchers are real interested in seeing the Rice University 2023 numbers. Rice won't release them as of this date. They are a relatively highly ranked college in Texas where 25% of their annual freshman enrollment comes from blue states. Only 40% from Texas and 35% from red states beside Texas and international students.
High school guidance councilors and for profit placement consultants are reporting there is a lot of push back among students and parents in even considering a college located in a red state. This is signaled in many cases by mothers of the female student being very frank with the councilor or consultant, making statements like "no red state colleges" when initially asked about college choices.
This from a recent Newsweek report.

Brain drain. Some states with their retrograde policies are increasing their rate of driving out their most talented and accelerating their descent.

Re: The Abortion Thread
I would suggest you provide a link to the article so those that are interested could read what was stated more accurately than what you posted. Where you generalize by saying freshman enrolments were down 1%, the article states that there was nearly a 1% decrease in the share of female applicants. Regarding Rice, they are not not just a highly ranked college in Texas. Rice is the #1 ranked university in the state and if you accept U.S. News and World Report rankings it's rated the #17 national university. Maybe I missed it but I didn't read anything you're suggesting that the researchers are real interested in Rice's numbers when the only mention in the article is that they have been contacted for comment via email.jhu72 wrote: ↑Tue Dec 12, 2023 5:02 pm Speaking of Texas, researchers looked at college enrollments for the top 100 US colleges in the years up to and including 2022.

I do agree with you that some schools in abortion states may have problems. As the author mentions, it remains to be seen.

Re: The Abortion Thread
The boys ain't alright. Not matriculating at the same rate as women. So, a drop in female applicants is more significant than it seems. Maybe they could become "Incel U?" Good news is, don't really need that many men. The number of females is the key to population stability. And increasingly, I'm betting they want no part of procreation given the stupid that is the Republican Party. How the fcuk do they think this is going to work out for them. Think they read Lysistrata? Or, for that matter, can they read?

Dahlia is angry, and pulls no punches on the PoS politicians and judges that are perpetuating this abomination of a "policy".
Read the whole piece...After Dobbs came down, the pro-life football-spikers assured us that they were in it for the moms, and the babies, with all the wholesome pro-lifey gooey humanity that comes with such status. And yet, after Kate Cox’s physician warned her, according to their court papers, that “the safest option to protect Ms. Cox’s health and future fertility was to get a D&E abortion,” the people invested in fulfilling that promise were nowhere to be found—and then they were quite suddenly everywhere to be found, asserting their right to still restrict choices proffered by actual medical authorities. That the majority that penned Dobbs and the Texas Supreme Court decided that they all knew better is conclusive proof that nobody cared enough about Kate Cox’s next pregnancy, or her desire for an actual viable baby.
It is one thing for jurists to inhabit a world in which fake people with fake facts drive doctrine for the rest of us. It’s another matter entirely when actual people with real facts—real pain, real suffering, real bleeding, and real babies who will really die or suffer before they die—don’t matter enough to inspire judges to act with humanity. Dobbs was never about protecting mothers, or their babies. It was about control, and the abject awfulness of what the state of Texas has imposed on Kate Cox, her family, and her doctor makes that plain. It is about pretending to respect maternity and modesty and medicine while insulting all three, and calling it “law.”

Re: The Abortion Thread
Very good article. We traded a relatively uniform standard under Roe, on which 60+ percent of Americans agreed, for a hodge-podge of judges second guessing the advice of physicians and the decisions of patients, combined with threats of criminal prosecution of the physicians who would implement that medical judgment. This was always abut controlling women, and enshrining their second-class status in the law.dislaxxic wrote: ↑Wed Dec 13, 2023 8:35 am The Lie at the Heart of Overturning Roe v Wade is Now in Plain Sight
