Summary

Following Donald Trump’s election victory, women are experiencing a surge in misogynistic harassment online, with phrases like “your body, my choice” trending as men taunt women about reproductive rights.

The phrase, co-opted from feminist slogans, reflects heightened hostility, with reports of threats on platforms like TikTok and X/Twitter.

This backlash arises as Trump’s administration, alongside VP-elect JD Vance, raises concerns about potential federal restrictions on abortion.

Even without a federal ban, existing state laws have already limited access to reproductive care, contraception, and increased maternal health risks.

    One of my friends had some rough experiences in some communities after it. I’d have to dig up the screenshots but it was atrocious. She’s not even American but she flat out said it made her want to take a break from online for a while.

    I’ve never seen anything like it considering the game we play together tends to have a more progressive and welcoming community that lashes out against open misconduct like that.
