On this day in 1975, Joan Little was acquitted for the murder of her rapist. She was the first American woman to be acquitted of murder committed in self-defense against a sexual assault.

There is a Google doc that lists gynaecologists who will perform tubal ligation (tie tubes) without asking if you have kids/your partners permission/are married etc. as long as you're old enough to consent to surgery.

It's sorted by alphabetical order by state.

If your city isn't listed, keep checking because it's constantly being updated.

So far there are entries for USA, Canada, and Australia. Europe will hopefully soon be added.

Throwing this out there in case you haven’t gotten to this realization yet:

Why would a man in a patriarchal society care so much about “what is a woman”? If it’s a matter of sex, it should be consensual and any biases against trans women would be cleared up after a conversation. A man could just move on to the next date. So what is it really about. I’ll give you a hint— men in a patriarchal society where women are treated like objects and property are also raped.

This is a very important story in the fight for healthcare rights and body autonomy on the topic of abortion.

Having just spotted this for the first time, it seems worthy of sharing. I regret not knowing whom to credit.

Picked up 3 signature books for my initial dive into signature collection. Arriving at the ACLU building on Chester, it looks very closed. Pressing the doorbell, I was quickly greeted by someone offering me all the assistance I could hope for. Plus, of course, I signed.

Thank you! That's great. I've clicked that first link, and this next link takes one right to the list of places to sign, and pick up/drop off petition books.

ohioansforreproductivefreedom.

I emailed a few local college student centers and asked about setting up a table to take signatures. So nervous, but this is so worth stepping outside of my comfort zone!

Ah! Yes! The second link is just what I wanted. So good.

It looks like nothing within 10 miles of me, but, it also looks like I can drive slightly further than 10 miles, pick up a book, and go back to my neighborhood to collect signatures. So, anybody not finding a close spot to direct family and friends, why not become that close spot?

in please!

I cannot find anywhere information letting me know where to go to sign the to amend the Ohio Constitution to protect a human's right to make sexual reproduction decisions with his/her physician and without interference by the government.

Can anybody direct me to how I sign? I've talked to many people, all eager to sign, all waiting for me to tell them where to go.

I am out of words. The bill is already through the legislature in .

"Currently, rapists can't sue, but a Senate amendment to the so-called "trafficking" bill would delete that part of the code and allow rapists to bring a civil case.... House lawmakers agreed to that change Thursday afternoon."

“At some points, the group appears to struggle with clear signs that they are being purposefully discriminatory… one drafter states that male and female people require separate but unequal treatment… A Liberty Counsel member replies, indicating that “separate but equal” may not be the best language to use.”

Florida call to action: the FHSAA has called an emergency meeting to scrap the invasive requirement that female HS athletes provide menstrual history. We don't have a lot of time:

Gathered the 5 teenage boys having a sleepover at my place to tell them my number 1 house rule (respecting other people's body autonomy), & pleased to announce that only 2 of them didn't know what body autonomy was (they do now!)

A perfect answer for people questioning your desire to not have children.
It's time we normalize elective sterilization.
