This week's episode is very special to me. I want to thank all of the brave souls who responded to my call for abortion stories. To read their powerful words, visit sexgetsreal.com/ep162. In fact, start there before you dive into this chat with Carol Sanger about her new book, "About Abortion: Terminating Pregnancy in 21st Century America". Abortion can be a ridiculously charged topic in the United States, which is unique among countries with legal abortion. Carol's book is a fascinating and dare I say fun look into the legislation, the imagery, how technology has impacted the conversation, and more than anything focuses on what happens when people in marginalized positions are forced to choose secrecy over privacy. We tie abortion to sex work, kink, polyamory, HIV/AIDS, and of course, to the larger oppressive systems at play in our society like patriarchy and gender role bullshit. Despite the heaviness of abortion, this talk with Carol is delightful - there's intimate moments and several genuine laughs as we dive into all of the terrific research Carol has done and why it's more important than ever that we share our stories. If abortion is a hot topic for you, I invite you to listen and to be patient. The stories, more than anything, are critical for us all to hear and absorb. Oh! Don't forget: Patreons who support with just $3 per month and above get exclusive weekly bonus content, too. Literally, every pledge sends me into an excited squeal of delight. patreon.com/sgrpodcast Follow Sex Gets Real on Twitter and Facebook. It's true. Oh! And Dawn is on Instagram. Resources mentioned in this episode Carol mentioned a paper called, "I Would Like to Give My Baby, Like, Everything In the World," which talks about women aborting to protect their children. While this is an academic paper that is not publicly accessible, Slate wrote about the paper here. Lindy West and Amelia Bonow started #ShoutYourAbortion and ShoutYourAbortion.com to share abortion stories. The Rewire book review by Katie Klabusich that Carol mentions in the episode.

#268 - KATIE KLABUSICH talks with me about the fight to protect women's rights
Moment of Clarity - Backstage of Redacted Tonight with Lee Camp
#268 - KATIE KLABUSICH talks with me about the fight to protect women's rights
When I created UnFuckitup.com and our UnFucker of the Month Award, I had no idea how many people would join us in our campaign to UnFuck things up and to share what they were doing in the world. I think we're going to have to move to UnFucker of the Day Award soon! But things really took off when activist and writer, KATIE KLABUSICH of katiespeak.com took over. I interviewed her here about the unfuckers she is excited about and how unfuckery has become a way of life for her, how she avoids burn-out, and why she decided to speak up about her personal experiences with an unwanted pregnancy and abortion rights advocacy.
