My dad didn’t have to tell me anything. I knew without a doubt he would kill me if I got pregnant before marriage. It kept me a virgin until my wedding night. (I never did get pregnant. Ever. LOL!)

“So stop reducing it to ‘my GF is angry at me for factors outside of my control’ for pity points on the internet, and intentionally making your girlfriend the ‘crazy hysterical woman.’ Their anger at you is born out of your reaction to the SCOTUS ruling, not the ruling itself.”

Stop telling me not to view her as a crazy hysterical woman when that’s exactly what she is to be mad at me for something I had utterly no control over and no hand in. That’s exactly what she is. Anybody looking at it rationally could see that.

Let's explore the hysteria and irrationality a little further. From the article....

how pregnancies are so much more dangerous now, and how I might face going to jail if I miscarry.

pure hysteria. Nobody is going to jail for a miscarriage. Where did you even dream up such laughable nonsense? She me any even proposed law in any state that would criminalize miscarriages. I'll wait.

"It didn't really hit home for him until I told him we can't try for another baby because of this.

Hysterical response. You're dramatically altering your lives and possibly ruining your relationship with your husband for NOTHING.

I've been low-key upset with him since the ruling was leaked way back when and he sighed at me like I was over reacting when I was in tears."

You're clearly a lunatic who needs to get hold of herself. There is zero reason to be mad at him for something he played no part in. There is similarly no reason to be in tears. Stop emoting and think for a change. This does not affect you. Get a grip.

"I'm also one of these women. I can't even look at my husband or sit near him bc he has still not said a word not one word. I'm not bringing it up. I have twice in the form of a comment about how I'm feeling and there was silence so now I'm silent. I don't know how this is going to play out."

You're another hyperemotional and completely irrational nutjob. You're mad at him for what? failing to read your mind? If you want your relationship to actually work, the first thing you need to do is talk to your spouse. Do not assume he can or should be able to read your mind. Nobody can. He probably went silent because he was trying to avoid making you even more unstable than you already are - which is quite unstable. Get a grip.

"I told my partner (who's sympathetic but can anyone without a uterus truly understand?) I'm mad at anyone who isn't mad."

Guess what. Not everybody on the planet is going to feel exactly the same way you do about every issue. You cannot demand universal agreement of others. The best you can ask is empathy - which he gave.....and you're STILL mad at him for no reason. He really ought to rethink whether or not he wants to stay in a relationship with you.

"What disturbs me is that, even if you want to get pregnant, something could go wrong, like an ectopic. In many of these states, the ban[s] are absolute. People are going to die. Even the married Christians who want a bunch of babies."

uhh no. I know of no state at all in which an abortion could not be performed if it were medically necessary to save the life of the mother. Show me one state that even proposes a law such as this let alone a state that has actually enacted such a law.

"It's already starting... #medtwitter I saw 2 ectopic (which are in NO way viable) wait 9 hours so man doctor can talk with man lawyer to make sure that she 'qualifies' for care. Those ladies who think Trump is Jesus have no idea that all of these emergencies are off the table in some states."

Where did you go to medical school....doctor? I didn't realize that was your patient. Oh you didn't? Oh, that wasn't your patient? Then how the hell would you know whether or not the doctor in that case did anything that fell below the standard of care? You wouldn't. Again, what state has so much as proposed a law that would ban abortions which are medically necessary to save the life of the mother? Name it.

"Heck my husband is effing terrified for our kids. He's been raging right along with me. I don't understand how men don't care about the women they claim to love."

Not agreeing with YOUR POLITICS is not the same as not caring about the women they love. You hold no monopoly on care.

"My normally very, very empathetic husband told me to—and I quote—"calm down" yesterday when I learned of the apparent tampon shortage that's going on. (I start my period soon-ish.) Given how angry that made me, I can scarcely imagine how irate I would be if we weren't equally appalled by Roe's overturn."

He must think exactly like I do.....OR ELSE!!! Grow up. Not everybody in the world is going to agree with you about every issue. The best you can hope for is communication and genuine empathy on those occasions when your spouse disagrees. Be happy if you get that. If you are going to childishly demand 100% agreement on everything you are either not going to get it and are going to lash out like a child OR you have married an utter doormat you cannot possibly respect. Calm Down.

"I've actually had men ask why I care so much when it doesn't affect me. I'm too old to get pregnant myself, so I should stop giving a s***?"

Nobody said you can't care about it. What they've essentially said is "Calm Down". It sounds like you need to.

"I commented here the other day that my husband came home and openly wept, he was so angry and upset and felt so helpless."

LOL! Your "husband" is pathetic. "Wept"? Over a political issue? He needs testosterone supplements STAT!

"Mine told me not to worry because it won't affect me in my state (which depends on the next election mind you). Also, it didn't ban abortion, it just turned it back to the states. Grrrr!!!"

So he told you the truth. Deal with it.

Here is the post ( I think this is it ):
“My GF is mad at me about Roe v Wade.”

Discussion

I’ve seen many posts from men, predictably confuddled as to why their girlfriends were angry at them “for no reason” about Roe v Wade.

Of course, these girlfriends in question were immediately labeled as “red flags” or “crazy feminists” by dudebros in the comments.

Men, your girlfriends are not angry at you because of Roe v Wade. They are most likely upset because you were unable to display empathy, and were apathetic to (or worse, in support of) her rights being stripped away. So stop reducing it to “my GF is angry at me for factors outside of my control” for pity points on the internet, and intentionally making your girlfriend the “crazy hysterical woman.”

Their anger at you is born out of your reaction to the SCOTUS ruling, not the ruling itself.

May I suggest lesbianism for these “womyn” ? They’ll get all the empathy they want.

People keep lying and saying women will go to jail for a miscarriage. That is not happening. People will be charged with abortion for jaywalking!

Girlfriends being angry at their men for no reason is the normal state of affairs. Females being irrational and all.

Where is ‘here’; in what nations are abortions illegal?

I don’t know how many nations. I only know about this one. Abortion is illegal. Some still get it done, but I am not sure how, since I don’t think hospitals will do it.

Not just a bf/gf thing. Women across the fruited plain are snippy at men, taking cheap shots at brothers, co-workers, male acquaintances. Women in workplace authority are pooping on the men below them, figuratively.
They can’t say why they are acting this way, as they know it is wrong. Just a mean streaked lashing out at any male they can damage.
Guys are just hunkering down, hoping sanity returns soon.

A response that is nearly exactly true:

To the lefttard woman I use to date; I have met a wonderful, traditional, graceful and beautiful morena and we are very happy together. She values life in a way you cannot know. Quite frankly, she makes you look like a harridan POS. T'chau - I wish you the best. Regards, Caipirabob

Oh, the lefttard in question sent me a friend invite on FB some time 23 years later. I accepted. She went on about what she was doing and my response was "That's nice. I'm happy for you".

Then I gave her access to the photos I kept of my wife.

She unfriended me within days.

Glorious...

“I just liked seeing Kate Winslet’s boobies.”

I think there was scaffolding out of camera’s sight pushing them up.

The proper term is “vertical navigation”.
