It's the height of irony that our greatest superpower, the ability to bear children, is also our kryptonite--with forced pregnancy being wielded against us by conservative Christians and their Trump puppet to make women weak and dependent. I completely understood how having birth control and the right to abortion was essential to women's freedom, but I didn't really get how pressure to bear children (and stay dependent on men) was woven into our fairytales until I read this piece. Thank you for another brilliant analysis.
