Speaking For Yourself About Contraception

from Helen Alvare
Women Speak for Themselves

Recently prominent women who have publicly questioned or criticized contraception have faced a lot of heat in the media. My article in the Washington Examiner provides a bit more background on this, and why we should be celebrating these women instead of attacking them. My goodness, even women who have decided to use contraception need real informed consent!

The world needs you to speak for yourself to change an untruthful, unrepresentative narrative of what it means to be pro-woman — both in the media and among your own friends, family and circle of influence.

WSFT has just published a sheet of talking points to use as a guide. Our "what to say and how to say it" is intended as a starting point for your own efforts in advocacy.

Also, you might find this blog post helpful in offering you some methods for refuting the untruths floating around today.

Excited to see what you do with this, and as always, grateful for your continued good work.
