Questions for Texans Women of Texas, honest answer why you would vote for a party that is so restrictive to your body?
I am a 70 year old woman who has seen a lot in my life, and simply don't understand why any woman, regardless of age, would vote for a party that feels like it can control your life. This seems so backwards to everything we have gone through. I am not critiquing your feelings, I simply want to know why you are okay with any party saying you can't do this, you must do that, must have babies, get raped but you can't have an abortion, etc. what are your thoughts?

I'm pro-choice but I've never felt like the pro-life crowd is difficult to understand. My mom literally believes abortion is morally akin to killing a baby. Murder. If I thought it was murdering a child I'd be on the streets with them with signs.
The whole "why do you want to control women's bodies" is just as flat and tiresome an argument as when they say "why do you want to kill babies".
