The incredible Dr. Tiller used to say “Trust Women.”
.
.
“Tiller provided abortions to women who often had no place else to turn and whose health, or the health of the fetus, was threatened. He knew that if the world learned to trust women, women would not only control their bodies but would control their lives. If the world learned to trust women, women would be welcomed into power structures, affecting every legal, political, social and economic arena. If the world learned to trust women, women — and especially men — would no longer fear living outside of stereotypes and would be able fulfill their potential. Trust Women isn’t just a mantra of tolerance or respect. It’s a phrase that changes the playing field, in every way imaginable. It’s the right phrase to advocate for women making their own reproductive health choices, and it’s a much broader statement about our future.”
