Tired.

This was sent by a woman living in Indiana.

I am tired. I am pretty sure I never let this on.

I don't think anyone knows this. Well here you all go: I am tired. Tired of stupidity. Tired of fighting a losing battle. Tired of people claiming they know what's best for me when they really do not know shit. Tired of people who claim to be above others and DEFINITELY tired of people speaking on behalf of others. Tired of people putting THEIR religion in the forefront when all religions are different. Tired of people dancing around the truth.

And you know what I am the MOST tired of? People being on "my side" or the "other side" (why are there sides in a woman's PERSONAL choice?) worried about saying the wrong things (which would be the right things) because they think it will hurt the outcome. Want to talk about the "dirty A word?" No. Let's talk about abortion, alright? And don't speak for me because YES, I had one, and I am NOT ashamed of it.

There. Let's talk. Let's talk to the people who have been through one.

But no. Continue pushing us aside. We obviously cannot handle speaking about how feel about the choice we made to ever take a stance for ourselves. You don't want to bother with us. Because we can't handle it. Not even a little bit.

I guess...in a nutshell...I'm just asking...in the whole grand scheme of the abortion argument, why does no one ever think to ask us?
