After Roe v. Wade fell, the National Domestic Violence Hotline saw a 99-percent increase in callers reporting that people were trying to control their reproductive choices.
In the year before Roe fell, roughly 1,230 people told the National Domestic Violence Hotline that they had endured some kind of what anti-domestic abuse activists call “reproductive coercion,” including being denied an abortion or being forced into one. In the year since it was overturned, 2,442 people said the same. That’s a 99-percent increase.
Let’s not pretend that banning abortion just didn’t make any kind of difference.
Yeah and domestic abusers also use abortion itself to control their victims and continue abusing them. Abusers gonna abuse 😞
