    I’ve got no doubt a handful of trolls have been saying it, but nobody who holds any real power.

    Just a group of people lying to themselves about why nobody likes or supports them.

      Those who hold power have already said it with their abortion bans with no exemptions in case of rape.

          The phrase “your body, my choice” appears to have made its way offline, specifically into schools. Young girls and parents have used social media to share instances of offline harassment. They include the phrase being directed at them within schools or chanted by young boys in classes.

          On Facebook, the phrase “your body, my choice” is currently trending, with 52,000 posts in the last 24 hours. One parent stated: “Today my daughter was told three separate times on campus ‘your body, MY choice.’ The third group of boys told her to ‘sleep with one eye open tonight.’”

              Is a 52k trending post not sufficient to qualify as a slogan? That’s more pull than most marketing campaigns actually achieve.

              If anything, little (and not so little, the incidents are being reported on campus) shits using it is worse, because it’s a pretty good reflection of where the next generation is headed.

                There should be a narcissist’s prayer for people who bury their heads in the sand.

                That didn’t happen

                And if it did, it’s contained online

                And if it isn’t, it’s not popular

                And if it is, you can ignore it

                And if you can’t, ¯\(ツ)

      Why are you insisting so hard on this not being really a thing? As if ignoring this kind of stuff EVER lead to any kind of improvement oO
