The sovereignty of a woman

Back in Lincoln’s time, they abolished slavery not only because it was inhuman but because it was forcing one human against their will to serve another. It’s easy to look back on that time and say: Well, of course, it should have been stopped, and of course, we will never go back there again, But as of July 2022 our “Supreme Court” has made it possible to force one human to create another against their will. This was when Roe V Wade, a decades-old law, was abolished. Now a woman who gets raped or is forced to have sex with a relative and gets pregnant has to carry that child to term, even if they are a minor. However, the wisdom of our highest and mostly male court did not feel that the perpetrator should have an equal penalty such as castration, it is one of the easiest crimes to prove through that person’s DNA matching the child’s.

Perhaps an appropriate deterrent for such actions should be, upon confirmation, castration. Since changing a woman’s path in life is not a crime, castration seems like the balance to the crime. If this sounds too savage of a consequence, then perhaps the idea of having to carry a child to birth, following nine months of physically unwanted changes, should be reevaluated in your mind. And for those quoting the Bible, perhaps they should read deeper.

Genesis 2:7 Says: And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and man became a living being.

For those less versed in how a fetus evolves, remember this: A child’s first breath happens moments after birth. Until then, the mother and child are one, and that being said, it is a logical conclusion that there is no individual other than the mother. Slavery takes on many forms but the most brutal is making a woman face the evolution of an unwanted pregnancy.
