Blog for Choice Day
I am very pro-choice. But I’m not going to blog about it. Although I am supposed to, according to NARAL. It’s January 22, the anniversary of Roe v. Wade.

When powerful people want to stand for something they believe in, they don’t blog about it. Goldman Sachs managing directors don’t have a “blog for massive bonuses” day. Choice is something we deserve; it’s our right under the law.
Blogging is about agitation. The rights we exercise when we blog are our First Amendment rights. I feel that a “blog for choice” day diminishes the message that choice is our right in the US. For now, at least.
Of course, the US Capitol is swarmed by anti-choice activists exercising their rights to demonstrate. Blogging for choice doesn’t stop them from swarming.
