Pregnancy is a life-threatening condition. Since America has destroyed reproductive freedom, anyone with the capacity to get pregnant would be within their rights if they killed someone attempting to vaginally rape them. It absolutely qualifies as an act of self defence. Just sayin'.
It always has been. The reasons are obvious, but just to be clear, men aren't good at sharing or taking responsibility. They claim to be, but aren't. Misogyny is one thing they do well, but can't even take responsibility for that.
When women lost their HIPPA rights years ago due to private bounties, you know it is a war on women. And no one said a fucking thing. They still don't.
The reasoning I have heard is that of the punishment was more severe, rapists would be more likely to kill their victims to avoid justice. Which I think is bullshit, but that is the only reason I have ever heard.
I just think truth, accuracy, and context matter. Too many people post memes that lack all three and generally do nothing but gin up anger in the willfully ill-informed.
