Hollywood reacts to Roe v. Wade being overturned: 'Absolutely terrified'
Fox News ^ | 06.25.2022 | Lauryn Overhultz

The Supreme Court of the United States voted to overturn Roe v. Wade Friday.

Celebrities reacted to the decision via social media with Alyssa Milano saying it will have "deadly consequences" and Elizabeth Banks calling it "devastating news."

"Today’s Supreme Court ruling overturning #RoeVsWade will have deadly consequences, with the harm falling hardest on people of color who already face disproportionate discrimination in our country and grapple with a severe maternal mortality crisis," Milano wrote.

"Banning abortion will disproportionately impact people of color, LGBTQ+ communities, people struggling to make ends meet, young people, and those living in rural areas."

>>>>I don’t get it. The number of young (18-35) sluts is staggering.
There’s a reason they wind up marrying some beta simp.
No alpha male wants some worn out slut for a wife and mother.<<<<

You gotta wonder how many “young sluts” these “alpha males” helped “wear out” by insisting they put out, though.

I agree all the way with waiting until marriage. Sadly, our culture tells our young people that this is abnormal and even unhealthy and has for a some decades now.

It’s a widely accepted myth nowadays that people used to marry in their mid teens. Not true.

Aside from from royalty and the higher nobility (who did often marry in their teens), women married for the first time in their early to mid twenties, men in their mid to late twenties during the Renaissance:

https://internetshakespeare.uvic.ca/Library/SLT/society/family/marriage.html

And also during Medieval times (scroll down to The “European Marriage Pattern” section:

https://www.encyclopedia.com/history/news-wires-white-papers-and-books/betrothal-marriage-age

What about later on?

Recency era: “Sources put the average age of marriage between 23 and 27 for women and between 25 and 29 for men.”

Victorian era: “At the end of the 18th century, the average age of first marriage was 28 years old for men and 26 years old for women. During the 19th century, the average age fell for English women, but it didn’t drop any lower than 22. Patterns varied depending on social and economic class, of course, with working-class women tending to marry slightly older than their aristocratic counterparts.”

Modern claims that people married in their early to mid teens (based on a few royal and noble marriages) and it is therefore “unhealthy” to delay sex until marriage (or at least betrothal) is pure poppycock.

People did not lose their minds, and no, the church steps and roadsides were not piled high with illegitimate babies:

“Illegitimate births and premarital conceptions reached their highest recorded level during Victorian times, as around 1650, less than 1% of all births were illegitimate and only 16% were premaritally conceived. In sharp contrast, in 1852, 6.8% of all births were illegitimate and over 40% were premaritally conceived.”

Compare and contrast with the 20th and 21st centuries:


What links liberalized contraception and abortion with the declining shotgun marriage rate? Before 1970, the stigma of unwed motherhood was so great that few women were willing to bear children outside of marriage. The only circumstance that would cause women to engage in sexual activity was a promise of marriage in the event of pregnancy. Men were willing to make (and keep) that promise for they knew that in leaving one woman they would be unlikely to find another who would not make the same demand. Even women who would be willing to bear children out-of-wedlock could demand a promise of marriage in the event of pregnancy.

The increased availability of contraception and abortion made shotgun weddings a thing of the past. Women who were willing to get an abortion or who reliably used contraception no longer found it necessary to condition sexual relations on a promise of marriage in the event of pregnancy. But women who wanted children, who did not want an abortion for moral or religious reasons, or who were unreliable in their use of contraception found themselves pressured to participate in premarital sexual relations without being able to exact a promise of marriage in case of pregnancy. These women feared, correctly, that if they refused sexual relations, they would risk losing their partners. Sexual activity without commitment was increasingly expected in premarital relationships.

Yes, it’s PBS, but surprisingly on the mark and seriously worth a look. Includes other factors driving up percent of births to unwed mothers:

https://www.pbs.org/fmc/timeline/ddisruption.htm

We got sex, drugs and rock and roll, y’all. “Reliable birth control” backed up by “safe and legal abortion” on demand has given us an explosion of babies born to single mothers to be raised in poverty and abused by a succession of Mommy’s boyfriends.

The rate for out of wedlock births in 2020 was 40.5%. In 2019, for blacks, it was 69.4 percent; for American Indians/Alaska Natives, 68.2 percent (Native Hawaiians/Other Pacific Islanders were at 50.4 percent); for Hispanics, 51.8 percent; for whites, 28.2 percent; and for Asian Americans, 11.7 percent.

In other words, contraception and abortion have wildly increased — not decreased — the number of babies born to single mothers.

Two words: (1) birth, and (2) control.

Young women need to be regularly told "Keep your pants on."

They’re “terrified” that they might not be able to kill their children.

Wake me up when someone in Hollywood cannot get an abortion. It is a baby sacrifice center.

Juneteenth is the holiday celebrating, when the Republicans freed the slaves from their evil Slave Master Owners, aka Elite Democrats/The KKK.

Then, on 24 June 2022, the Supreme Court overturns Roe v. Wade!

Abortion kills 1,000 black babies every day in America. Abortion is not just a woman’s issue. It’s a human rights issue.

Abortion is the number one killer of black lives in the United States. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, abortion kills more black people than HIV, homicide, diabetes, accident, cancer, and heart disease … combined.

In 2019, black women had 38.4% of all abortions in the U.S., despite African-Americans comprising only 12.4% of the total population.

In Michigan, black women make up only about 14% of Michigan’s female population, but they had 55.4% of all abortions reported in the state in 2020.*

Excellent, if you don’t mind, I would like to use this where it is appropriate:

Only Banning Abortion is Dangerous
Five-dollar gas isn’t dangerous.

15% inflation isn’t dangerous.

Unsecured borders aren’t dangerous.

Endless wars aren’t dangerous.

Critical Race Theory isn’t dangerous.

Arresting parents for caring about what their kids are learning in school isn’t dangerous.

Letting five-year-olds choose their gender identity isn’t dangerous.

Printing money like it’s going out of style isn’t dangerous.

Baby formula shortages aren’t dangerous.

A decimated military isn’t dangerous.

Black Lives Matter & Antifa aren’t dangerous.

Biden’s corruption and rapidly declining mental health aren’t dangerous.

Nope, none of that’s dangerous.

Only banning abortion is dangerous.

Alyssa is worried that blacks won’t be able to kill their babies. I guess she doesn’t like black babies.

Racist.

Men haven’t ever changed, women did. Men “convincing women to have sex” is just one excuse in a long line of women taking zero accountability in their decisions.

I don’t know how old you are, but many chicks took zero convincing. I’ve had girls(multiple) grab me under the table and say they want me to **** them. Is that my alpha male aggression?

Menstruation + beer + no accountability = sluts

Women never take accountability.

Men aren't so great at it, either.

Inverse proportion to intelligence, stability, self-support, taxpaying and productivity. But hey, all cultures are equal.

“LGBTQ+”? How can the Federals getting out of the abortion business POSSIBLY AFFECT QUEERS AND LESBIANS?

Last time I checked they can’t naturally reproduce anyway!
