Women experience our lives as full human beings, something that gets lost in our quest for ever-more "inclusive" language.
The "uterus-haver" whose path to an abortion is blocked is the girl who has to drop out of school or the woman who dies from a back-alley abortion.

Our whole lives are bound up in our sex and in the global struggle for reproductive autonomy. Yet inclusive language summons an indifferent parade of body parts and functions as though these were somehow detachable from living, breathing women and girls.
That's not an accident. Erasing women and girls as a coherent political class goes hand-in-hand with selling sexual and reproductive "services" (prostitution and surrogacy) and peddling dissociation and lifelong medicalization (gender identity).
Don't dismember women and girls in your speech. Don't participate in this intellectual dissection of women and girls out of respect for inclusivity. What activists are seeking is not respect, but submission. Don't submit. https://twitter.com/elizamondegreen/status/1320740342669430793
