Ladies and Gentleman of the Congress,

I implore you to lend me your eyes for this letter and to listen to my words carefully. My words are the words of many before me and many yet to come. Not just men, not just women but also children as well.

Recently, the topic of Abortion and Women’s rights has come under fire once more since it was last decided that the states should decide women’s fates. Recently, our country has decided that our female bodies are more of an opportunity than a right. Here I say, better count the children before the mother dies with an unborn inside of her.

I have witnessed and read countless tales of wrong doing as such like rape, molestation, sexual assault and sexual harassment. Nine out of 10 women in my family have experienced all of these. Not just one.

AT the age of 9, I experienced my first count of sexual harassment. And it hasn’t stopped. My niece was raped at the age of 11. My mother and all of my aunts experienced sexual assault and rape by their step-father. I have had a sexual assault happen in the room right next to mine in my old dorm area at my college. I’ve watched as people made open rape jokes around a table at dinner.

So I ask. Where is the opportunity here? Where is the pro-life?

Currently one in six women are raped in the USA yet a solid good portion of men who do the raping are let off because “She asked for it” when consent is a thing and rarely given. One in ten girls are sexually assaulted and or harassed before the age of 18 and those numbers go up if that girl, child and or women was in foster care. The thing that was meant to help children is also the cause of their demise. If you don’t believe me, you can easily find these stats on google.

The United States is one of a handful of countries that do not require companies to offer maternity leave because god forbid a woman actually have a child and not work. The United States claims freedom but fails to protect women from hate for having a child and or hate from asking help for providing for the child. The United States claims to have children in their best interest yet prisoners get free food while children are left hungry because the parents can’t pay for a school lunch.

And so, instead of fixing these numbers, instead of lowering cost of living, instead of providing medical care for children who are alive here and now, instead of providing food for the needy, instead of providing free healthcare and free education, you attack a women’s right to her own body.

Instead of doing productive things, you attack a women’s biological right. Instead of limiting how much medication a man can get for limp dick syndrome, you attack the medication many women need to regulate herself. Instead of helping people with family counseling, actually improving this countries terrible attempt at mental health, you strip a child of her right for health.

Congratulations, by overturning Roe V Wade, you have made this country a nightmare for millions and billions of us. Instead of pro-choice, we are now pro-rape because a 10 year old’s body is now an ‘opportunity.’ Instead of pro-choice, where a woman who was abused can get help, she now is forced to carry something dead inside of her. Instead of pro-health, a woman’s life is in danger because the seven month pregnancy is of a baby that has no bones.

MY body is my temple and is my religion. I take care of it and I believe that I can speak for billions of women who would say the same. The way you see a right to my body is sickening. I am not an opportunity for you to use. I will not stand for you to decide my own fate. I am here, I am working hard, I have remained abstinent, and I refuse to allow you to tell me what to do with my temple.

Because I am my own religion, you have no way to stop me by rule of the first amendment if I decide to do something to myself. Because I rule myself and own myself, by the first amendment which protect my religion, you cannot tell me who can cum inside of me and what I can or can’t do with it. Because of my religion, you have no rights to where I go, what I do and what I decide for myself.

Therefore, if you restrict women’s rights, as many of you have done, expect someone to take the next step to end you. It will not be me as that is against my own religion. It may not be your life, it may not be in your life, but you will be ended. Your time will expire here as you have not helped anyone with this ‘pro-life’ except rapist and sexual assaulters. For only they think that women’s and children’s bodies are “opportunities.”

So I end by saying, if you are pro-life, you are not for a life of a child. You are Pro-RAPE.

Sincerely,

Dragon Rider
