Pro life or Pro Choice? Both are inherently Anti-Feminist

American political pundits have created an irrevocable, albeit completely illusory divide on women's fertility "rights". The fallacy goes like this:

You are either for abortion, or against it; you are pro-life or anti.

Meanwhile, never is there a mention of the wisdom of the female body outside of the industrial-medicine paradigm.

While the argument seems simple, it's genesis has deeper, darker roots, focused on  controlling women's bodies through institutions, rather than empowering women to understand their own biology outside of systems of hierarchical control.

Never is there a question of the innate wisdom of the female body and it's cyclicity outside of the Western medicine system. Never do these old white women and men look to indigenous or ancestral systems used to empower women's fertility, rather than put rigid first world boxes around the limitless and divine womb of creation. Dichotomous thinking has created discord concentrated on micromanaging a women's most sacred power--the seat of human life and continuity.

While most people on the pro-choice side of things view it as radical bodily autonomy, this is a slippery birthing canal into totalitarian euthanasia. Abortions, when managed by the state as a sort of sterilized and devoid of humanity procedure, strips a "woman's right to chose" down to a pill or a barbaric extraction.

If a women "chooses" to keep her fetus, then she may bring a life into the world that she wasn't completely in consent of, and the energetic effects of that can last for a lifetime, for both the mother and child. I was a big "oops" child, and I have had innumerable psychological and spiritual obstacles to overcome as being labeled a "mistake" my whole life.

A few years ago I was diagnosed with a fairly large ovarian cyst after loosing my cycle for 6 months. The doctor offered me these options:

Total ablation of my uterine lining & birth control -- both nuclear level medical-industrial options.

I asked if there were less aggressive options for treatment, and she said no. I declined her options and dug deep into cycle syncing, herbal remedies and changed my lifestyle. When I went in for a check up 6 months later, I had restarted my period, and the cyst was completely gone.

As a woman that has been on multiple types of birth control and has ultimately opted for the natural route (a combo of cycle tracking, abstinence, partner vasectomy) I see this argument as a weak attempt by the patriarchy to hold a little more control over women's bodies by saying:

Hey, you can only have bodily autonomy if it is mandated by the state.

Fuck that.

I dare you to think -- what if women were empowered through their communities, educated in lost and refound wisdoms from matriarchs? What if feminists moved away from infusing tyrannical power into medical-industrial systems and began to focus on building strong local networks of empowered women instead?
