From the late-night Senate vote to repeal the Affordable Care Act to attorney general nominee Jeff Sessions’s demonstrated inability to disavow anti-abortion domestic terrorist groups, the incoming administration is looking like some fresh fucking hell if you possess a uterus. In the months following the election, I heard from women stockpiling Plan B, scheduling emergency IUD insertions, getting real about long-discussed vasectomies for their partners, and devising strategies to maintain their sanity and bodily autonomy in a country soon to be led by creepy old men who want them to have neither. You might feel alone right now if you’re going through this too, so remember: You’re a foot soldier in an army, fighting back against tyranny with birth control preparedness. And I’m here to help.
