    “In 2022, about 442,754 women were raped or sexually assaulted in the U.S.”

    If only 10% of those are rapes resulting in pregnancy, you’re looking at more than 44,000 forced births per year. And yes. In this way, it very much sucks to be a woman. I hope someone, somewhere, who reads these stark numbers stops engaging the toxic people who try and downplay women who don’t want to be alone with you, who act cautious around you, because they’re afraid.
