Give Birth Like a Feminist: Your Body. Your Baby. Your Choices. by Milli Hill

5.0

"...bear in mind a long history of seeing pregnant women as 'vessels', mere containers for the baby and by this implication as disposable as any other form of packaging" (pg. 103). This and "...in a world that is usually very careful to gain consent for organ donation, we might argue that this renders pregnant women with less bodily autonomy than a corpse" set the tone for the entire book which encourages females and pregnant people to stand up for themselves (pg. 103). Offering legal tools and assertive phrases to accomplish this, Milli Hill seeks to empower anyone possessing a uterus to stand before the raging bull and demand they be treated with the same respect and body autonomy as those who will never undergo the same level of body and reproductive regulation.

A valuable read for anyone and everyone.
