Will the Ohio General Assembly Give Men the Final Decision about a Woman's Reproductive Health Care
One year ago, State Rep. John Adams (R-Sidney) introduced one of the most outrageous pieces of legislation we have ever seen.

House Bill 287 would require a woman to have the written informed consent of the prospective father of her fetus before being allowed to have an abortion.

That's right...If the man says "No," there will be no abortion. Period!

This bill may actually be scheduled for hearings in the coming weeks.

To raise awareness about this offensive bill, Planned Parenthood Affiliates of Ohio is partnering with ProgressOhio, an outreach organization that builds awareness of legislative issues.

1. That's the same law Iran has
I hope those old bastards are proud of that.

I also hope all their willies turn green and fall off.

I am SO sick of the shit that downplays the risk to a woman's life and health (not to mention her finances and social support system) that an unwanted pregnancy poses.

It has to be voluntary.

If a male wants offspring, let him find a woman who is willing to bear them.
