This Is Why I Go To Planned Parenthood
I will be the first person to admit that I don’t follow political news all that closely. I’m not sure why. Maybe it’s due in part to my unsuccessful bid for 9th Grade Senator at Northport High School—where several “Senators” were elected and I was not one of them—which immediately ceased any desire I had to become The First Woman President of the United States. Shortly after that embarrassment, I turned my attention towards Broadcast Journalism, and then later to Psychology, and then later to Music, but now we are really getting off subject with why I am writing this.
I know there is something going on right now where Republicans do not want Planned Parenthood to have funding because they think that Planned Parenthood gives women abortions all the time and they do not like abortions and they think Planned Parenthood is bad. Something like that, right? I bet there’s more to it than that, but that’s kind of all my ignorant mind understands. I’ve been going to Planned Parenthood as a patient, on and off, for about 20 years. Twenty years. That’s like… many visits. So I was thinking about all of this and even though it’s personal and I don’t usually share personal things like this, I wanted to write down what I was thinking. So here it is.
This is why I go to Planned Parenthood.
