Kamala Harris says goddaughter’s friends are choosing college towns on abortion legalisation
Vice President Kamala Harris has said she knows of young people choosing which college they want to attend based on how restrictive the abortion laws are in that state. Commenting in an interview for the Roe v Wade retrospective on MSNBC’s The ReidOut, Ms Harris said her goddaughter told her that her friends wanted to attend schools in states where there was more freedom in terms of reproductive rights. Ms Harris told the roundtable: “When the decision came down she told me ‘Do you know what’s happening? My friends – whatever gender – are starting to make decisions about where they will actually go to college depending on what’s happening in that state.’” “Because of course, if you look at it, I think the number is something like 23 million women of reproductive age live in states that have banned abortion, and what that is gonna mean for those 23 million, for the myriad of health care issues that are at stake ... It’s having a real impact on all types of decisions people make,” she added. The show took a look back at the decision to overturn the landmark Roe v Wade decision that legalised abortion in the US in 1973 when the Supreme Court ruled that “unduly restrictive state regulation of abortion is unconstitutional”. In 2022, the Supreme Court, packed with three Trump-era appointees, overturned Roe v Wade and returned decisions on abortion freedom to the states. Since then, a number of states have introduced effective abortion bans that limit the procedure to the very early days of pregnancy – often before women are aware they are pregnant. Some states have also criminalised assisting women with accessing abortion, and limited abortion to cases of rape or incest. Ms Harris said that the Supreme Court’s decision last year had infringed on women’s rights. “The idea that the highest court in our land just did that and rolled back rights that had been recognized was incredibly shocking,” she said on MSNBC. She said that after she learned the news of the ruling, she called her husband and shared some “words not meant for television at this moment”. Ms Harris went on to say that the ruling means that some have to “suffer in silence,” the thought of which made her “angry and sad”.

Celebrate National Orgasm Day With These 11 Sex Toy Sales That Will Take Your Climax To New Heights
July 31 is National Orgasm Day, and we've never been more ready to celebrate. The day is all about celebrating and educating the masses about female pleasure (which is something we can absolutely get behind). For example, did you know that over 50% of people with vulvas have reported faking their orgasms? Tons of factors play into the pleasure gap (mental pressures, lack of sexual education, performance anxiety, etc.), but a great way to combat those factors is...you guessed it...masturbation — especially learning what makes your clitoris feel good. Taking the time to figure out your body's turn-ons (and turn-offs!) is the surest way to unlock the knowledge you need to get you to the big O (both solo and with a partner).
