Good Ol Backwards North Dakota

good ol’ backwards North Dakota wouldn’t want to be a woman in North Dakota, cause’ choice just ain’t happenin’ there. nah, if you’re a woman who gets raped in good ol’ backwards North Dakota, since they just shut down the last abortion clinic, all those bible thumping, christ screaming, pro-lifers, will be telling you to give birth to a constant memory of the man who raped you, because they ****ing said so. wouldn’t want to be a woman in don’t-need-your-thumbs-to-live-here North Dakota, because i’d be unable to decide what to do with my own goddamned body, due to the fact that the “heaven” seeking hillbillies want me to kill my dreams of having a career before settling down with a kid, so they can feel like they did their “god” good. wouldn’t want to be a woman in North Dakota, unless i had enough money to get on the quickest ****ing train out of there & gee willikers, doesn’t that just feel ****ing dandy in “the land of the free?”
