“I Couldn’t Bring Another Monster Into The World” – Feminist Aborts her Unborn Baby because It is a Boy

Lana says she didn’t know who the father of her baby was after becoming pregnant in 2012.

The woman claims she became a feminist after she had a negative encounter with a man while flying to San Francisco on her way to an Occupy Wall Street rally. The man allegedly told her she should “know” her place.

As her pregnancy led to the fifth month, Lana had envisioned giving birth to a baby girl. When the doctor told her she was having a boy, she had a meltdown.
“I was in shock, I started crying, weeping at the thought of what I was about to curse the world with,” Lana wrote.

“I couldn’t bring another monster into the world. We already have enough enemies as it is. It didn’t matter that I would be raising a son, he would still come into contact with boys, men, perhaps even the suit jockey who would inevitably twist his carefully constructed upbringing with their kindness. He would think ‘These men aren’t so bad, why would mom say that they are holding me down?’ Not all men are bad, my driver showed genuine concern for my well-being that day and I may have taken my anger out on him. That may have been uncalled for. But I knew what I had to do.”

A few days later, I went in for the procedure, as it was fairly later in my pregnancy, I was aware there were certain risks, but it went off without a hitch. My body’s betrayal was no more, I was free, and for the first time since the airplane incident, I felt strong. I had done something positive, something that would actually make a difference, something good, even though as I would find out, many others wouldn’t see it that way.

Today, I have a beautiful 1 year old female who will hopefully grow up to be just as strong and driven as her mother. I have endured a lot regarding my first pregnancy, but I don’t care. Sometimes, even allies will turn on you, but I don’t care.

I stand by my decision to abort my baby because it was a male.

I don’t hate men, I hate the patriarchy, what men, and even some women, turn into, I wasn’t going to let that happen with my offspring. The chances were greater that it would with a male, it was unacceptable.

If the curse returns, I would do the exact same thing all over again.
