Snipped from If You Can’t Play Tennis, You Aren’t A Person:
Radical femisogynist Jessica Valenti recently gave birth to a little girl. And while I doubt this subject is one she’ll ever broach, I have to say, I would love to know her thoughts. See, I’m pregnant right now. I’ve heard my baby’s heartbeat. I’ve seen the heart beating on an ultrasound. I’ve seen my baby kick its little legs and suck its thumb. I felt my baby move for the first time just a few days ago. I know exactly what I’m carrying, and yes, it’s a person. I could see the eyes and the smile, I could make out a profile with a forehead, nose, and lips. I could see the little fingers and toes. It isn’t some kind of meaningless bunch of tissue inside of me, it’s a person. A little person, yes, but a person.
When Valenti heard her baby’s heart beating, did she think it was just an abortable clump of cells? When she saw her daughter moving in her uterus, was it a fetus or a baby? When she felt her baby kicking, did she have any doubt about what she was carrying? If she had miscarried (and thank goodness she didn’t), would she have thought she lost some fetal tissue or would she have thought she lost her baby? A pregnant woman knows the truth. It’s why so many women feel they need to lie to themselves or avoid an ultrasound before an abortion. If they were to admit the truth to themselves, they wouldn’t be able to live with themselves.
These are questions she’ll probably never answer.

Uh, I don’t know. How would anyone here at FR even begin to answer that question at all knowledgeably?
Leftists are not concerned with truth in anything, including this subject.
There’s a “womyn” who was a mother in my old playgroup who is radically pro-abort. She posted something on FB quite a while ago about expressing horror at the little stuffed “fetus” dolls a pro-life group was handing out at a fair booth. A little girl was hugging one lovingly, and that was what disturbed her. I don’t know why I haven’t unfriended her, she really disgusts me. Kind of like watching at a train wreck, I guess.
Title: "The Abortion Nurse's Daughter"
How would anyone here at FR even begin to answer that question at all knowledgeably?A lot of us work with lefties, have lefties in our families, etc. Some are even former libs.
Read this column by Jill Stanek and you will hve your answer: http://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=211857Thank you so much for linking that column!
You’re welcome!
What a libertarian woman?
Wow! What an amazing story! I wonder where in the country this all happened. How old is Abigail now?
A true libertarian woman (little 'L') would rather shoot you with free market ammo, but will use government ammo if you are an invader. A true libertairan woman recognises the rights of every human, including the unborn.

Actually a true libertarian woman would adhere to the libertarian belief on abortion, which is, ZERO restrictions, just do whatever you feel like.
Don’t try and tell these people that libertarianism is a pro life party or political agenda.
What’s a “femisogynist”?
What’s a “femisogynist”?Femisogynist is a portmanteau of "feminist" and "misogynist." I first saw it used by Lori Ziganto (RedState, NewsReal), but a lot of other writers are using it now (like Cassy Fiano in the above post). Quite an apt description of the feminist Left.
And idiots that conflate drug use and license with true libertarianism are just that, idiots.
There is a big difference between the Libertarian party(tm) and true libertarianism.
If you don't know the difference, well, that just highlights some history of these United States that you don't know, understand, or willfully ignore.
I am a small 'L' libertarian, and I say that the rights of all people, even people that can't support themselves (say because they aren't born quite yet) matter. And that the unborn have the right to life.

A Feminist who hates women????? Now I have heard of everything!
Yeah we all know that when someone starts calling a five year freeper a “newb” that they are flustered.
Libertarianism is pro abortion, is there a little sub group that doesn’t agree, of course, but we also know that with out abortion, dope, the homosexual agenda, and weak national security that libertarianism slips into being conservative.
According to the new thinking.
Horrible bastardization of the original way english bastardizes ancient greek.

I just GOOGLED her. Abigail appears to be about 30 on her FACEBOOK page. She is from Toledo, Ohio, and currently lives in Virginia.
Here is a lengthier version of her story:

I’m surprised that I never heard about this young prolife warrior until just now.
I wonder if she’s a FReeper.
