SELF magazine is urging women to empower themselves by listening to Beyonce during their abortions. The advice was included in an article titled “15 Ways to Mentally and Physically Prepare for Your Abortion Procedure“.
#1 on SELF magazine’s empowering list is “Educate yourself about your abortion options…”
SELF mag suggests considering “medical abortion” or the morning after “abortion pill”, since, “It seems less clinical because you’re taking medications that mimic a natural miscarriage,” according to ob/gyn Sara Imershein, M.D., M.P.H.
Way down the list is #11: “Ask your health center if you can bring earbuds to listen to something during a surgical abortion”.
“If you’re going to be awake during a surgical abortion and want relaxation or distraction, listening to something might be helpful… Or maybe you’re looking for something more stereotypically empowering, Aebi says, adding, “You can stream Beyoncé before, during, and after your procedure if you want.”
What’s more empowering than telling the guy who knocked you up:
-
You must not know ’bout me
You must not know ’bout me
I could have another you in a minute
Matter fact he’ll be here in a minute, baby
