Summary
Following Donald Trump’s election victory, women are experiencing a surge in misogynistic harassment online, with phrases like “your body, my choice” trending as men taunt women about reproductive rights.
The phrase, co-opted from feminist slogans, reflects heightened hostility, with reports of threats on platforms like TikTok and X/Twitter.
This backlash arises as Trump’s administration, alongside VP-elect JD Vance, raises concerns about potential federal restrictions on abortion.
Even without a federal ban, existing state laws have already limited access to reproductive care, contraception, and increased maternal health risks.
If you’re within probably 1.5 hours of the Minneapolis/st. Paul you’re probably among sane folk, maybe within 30 of Duluth as well, but if you’re out in the boonies and such you might be finding people who, while polite, might be flying a trump flag and think “city/colored folk” are the problem.
