What does that phrase even mean

[-] Allero@lemmy.today 13 points 5 months ago

It's a reverse of "my body, my choice" (as in "I do whatever I want with my body, including abortions etc.) that is meant to demonstrate the position of right-wingers who want to take that away.

I don't think any of right-wingers themselves used that kind of phrasing. But I can be wrong.

Apparently they did, being emboldened by the election results:

My daughter is in high school and has reported an increase in precisely this kind of thing at her school.

Another anecdote to add (may as well leave it with your daughter's). Since Wednesday I've been catcalled 4 times, just out getting groceries, doing errands. I'm a woman in my late 40s in Canada who hasn't been catcalled in that specifically threatening nasty way since my early 30s. And it's ALL been from rabid-looking white guys. They've obviously been given a very clear go-ahead with Trump's win.
