REPRODUCTIVE RIGHTS ARE FUNDAMENTAL

I am in support of publicly funded reproductive rights, including family planning, contraception counseling, and right to decide on abortion. If men got pregnant, there would be such services provided by every HMO. This I believe to be the reality of the matter. Since men do not get pregnant, and men are the dominant gender in Congress by a huge percentage, women are less free to make their own decisions regarding this life changing issue. A woman's body belongs to her and only to her. She is the only person who should have any power to decide what is to be done with her body. If  woman cannot have exclusive control over her own body, then she is nothing more than a creature owned by the state.
