No, it's not Hilary Clinton. No, it's not Oprah. It's Dr. X: an abortion providing physician who chooses to remain anonymous because she risks her life every day for reproductive rights. I'm happy with that choice. Don't get me wrong, I love Hilary and Oprah, but I LOVE repro rights! The full article is here.
On a related note, if you would like to read a memoir written by a physician similar to Dr. X (but obviously not anonymous) check out this book: This Common Secret: My Journey as an Abortion Doctor by Susan Wicklund. It's quite eye-opening and made me cry in the first chapter, so that's always a good quality.
Woohoo! That is pretty awesome. Repro rights are SO important and definitely pretty underappreciated. Until now.
