Dear Holy Rolling Republican Legislators,

Hey, it's me. Host body with uterus. I wanted to check in and see if we could get a clear definition on this whole "sanctity of life" thing you're talking about. Since you say that life is sacred, I wanted to see if we could agree on the following:

- Will you ensure that my host body gets the prenatal care it needs to make sure this embryo grows into a healthy fetus?
- Will you ensure that my host body gets paid family leave, so that I can care for the baby you said I had to have, no matter what?
-Will you ensure that my baby will be able to see a doctor after it leaves my host body?
-Will you ensure that my baby can breathe clean air and drink clean water, after my host body isn't providing its oxygen and isn't providing its milk?
-Will you make sure my baby has quality childcare and early childhood education? Because my host body sometimes has to go to work, to feed us.
-Will you provide a quality K-12 education? Because my host body can't teach that kid chemistry.
-Will you create a safe society, where my child won't have to be afraid of getting shot? Where they don't have to do lockdown drills in their pre-school classroom? Because who'd want to leave my host body for a world like this?
-Will my kid be able to go to college and get a good education, so they don't grow up to believe that women are just fucking host bodies meant for bearing children, and perhaps they read some books other than the Bible? Like maybe even some history. Or science. Or fiction that isn't the Bible.

Here are some other questions I have:
-What if that kid is black? Or brown? Will their lives matter?

What if that kid is Muslim? Or Jewish? Or atheist? Will their non Christian beliefs be protected by you?

What if they're LGBTQ? Will they be treated equally under the law?

What if they're a migrant child at the border? A refugee? Are they fully human and whole in your eyes?

Hmm. What's that? Hard no to all of those? Oh, so let me get this straight. You're not pro life. Because you don't give a damn what happens to the kid after they leave my host body. You just want to hand them some teeny tiny bootstraps and wish them the best of luck pulling themselves up.

So let's be clear. This isn't about the "sanctity of life". It's a bill that's designed to legislatively fingerbang my uterus. See, in science, that's what we call the spot where the fetus grows. (It's not a host body.)

Well, guess what. Me and my "host body" are gonna rise up and push back against your holy roller laws. We women with our "host bodies" have done it before and we're gonna do it again. And we're gonna come at you with our big words spelled correctly, and our facts, and our lawyers, and we're gonna fight you tooth and nail. So get ready to get your pearl clutching, hypocritical asses out of my bedroom, my uterus, and my doctor's office. Because you weren't invited. And you're not welcome. This "host body" is ready for the fight.
