    And it doesn’t really matter if a cis man is “big on abortion” because these laws will never affect him and his body.

    I’m pro-choice but I’ve heard this and many similar things said and it’s such a ridiculous thing to say.

    “It doesn’t really matter what you think about inhumane treatment for XYZ medical condition because you’re not a doctor and you don’t have that condition”

    “It doesn’t matter what you think about banning this important subset of knowledge in K-12 education because you’ve already aged out”

    Believe it or not, things can affect you even if they’re not directly happening to you. People don’t exist in a vacuum.

    Disregarding someone’s opinion has never once changed someone’s opinion.
