Former Tiller intern: Abortion can be a radical act of love

I see being a doula as a political act and I believe that abortion, pregnancy, and childbirth can be a radical act of love and resistance. I’ve held the hands of thousands of people during their abortions and the compassion and love that I’ve witnessed while supporting someone during their abortion has shaped the kind of birth doula that I am today.

Being queer and actively choosing to work with queer and trans folks makes me a little different than the traditional doula (and I love that!).

What the hell is a doula?

My first reaction also, but Bryanw92 was kind enough to post the wikipedia definition on Post 17.

In this case, doula means heartless denizen of hell...

So killing another human being is a “act of love”?

Wow! Liberals are insane

Yes can be.

If it is John Gacy, Ted Bundy, or Richard Speck. That is a love for humanity and decency. However the libs think think mass murders should live and unborn babies should die.

Go figure.

Liberals: Protectors of life...except when it’s a unborn child
