Women who have had abortions told their stories, and allies used the hashtag to show support for a woman’s right to choose. Anti-abortion activists have attempted to co-opt the hashtag, showing just how common it is to shame and belittle women who have had abortions. The women who are using the hashtag to speak out in the face of insults, trolls and threats are a powerful reminder of how important these conversations are.
