My Story: I Was Raped. peecharrific:
I work with rape and assault victims. I look them in the eyes, I listen to their stories, I hold them, I pray. Inside, later, when I’m alone, I’m reminded of what happened to me. I rarely talk about it, but today seems to be the day.

There is no fool-proof method to keep from getting raped.
Women shouldn’t have to spend their whole lives trying to keep people from raping them.
When there is a rule book, when a woman gets raped, people immediately go to, “Well, she didn’t follow the rules,” to explain what happened instead of “SOME ASSHOLE RAPED HER.”

Emergency contraception is contraception! Check out this peer-reviewed expert summary of how EC (the “morning after pill”) works and why it is not, as many of the anti-choicers like to say, abortion-inducing. It’s a very safe way to prevent unintended pregnancy, and while the FDA has approved the sale of it to women over 17, some pharmacists across the country are still refusing...

If the law were to take effect, the consequences for women in South Dakota would be devastating.
