Texas Women are being abused by Politicians and Police.

According to a bill supported by Rick Perry, before a woman may have an abortion she must endure having the ultrasound probe inserted into her vagina, listen to the fetal heartbeat, watch the fetus on the ultrasound machine, listen to the doctor identify the body parts, sign a document saying that she understands all of the things presented to her, have the form become part of her permanent medical file, and then wait 24 hours for the abortion procedure. I have been married 29 years, had three children, but never had an abortion. Once I had a trans-vaginal sonogram to assist in the diagnosis of a medical problem. It was invasive, uncomfortable and humiliating to have such a device inserted into my body. To require such a procedure for a woman seeking an abortion is punitive and harassing. Even if the goal was to ensure the woman knew what the fetus looked like, an abdominal sonogram would accomplish the same goal, without the personal embarrassment of humiliation of vaginal penetration.

There is so much more in Texas which is meant to punish women for being women.
1. Body Cavity Searches on women is now normal by police.
