Be a step in the right direction.

Fun fact: they stopped working on a male birth control pill because of the side effects it was causing. Most of those side effects are experienced by women taking the female birth control pill.

Fun fact 2: the chainsaw was invented to open the pubic Symphysis joint during difficult child birth.

Bonus banger to enjoy how dismissive healthcare is for women.

(as one of my friends constantly reminds me, my facts are not very fun)

IUDs are a pretty terrible experience for many women. My uterus wouldn’t stop trying to reject mine for two years. These don’t work at all for a lot of women.
