The Real Motive Behind The Texas Law on Abortion

In Texas, lawmakers want to pass a law that will make abortion clinics safer for women. This new law would require all abortion clinics to have wider hallways and different ventilation systems, which would cost a lot of money leading to many abortion clinics to close. In a recent article it talks about this Texas law which says that if passed, it will close a lot of abortion centers, which will make women travel hundreds of mile to get an abortion, but it also says that it's intended to limit access to abortion. 

A lot will ramble on, saying that laws like this are suppose make abortion safer on women, and they’re right. There are a lot of cases where women have died due to complications. However according to statistics 90% of abortions are performed in outpatient setting and the complications they have they, they've been able to treat them. The percentage of women having to get hospitalized due to complications is 0.3%. Then how is it that by forcing many abortions clinics, because of all these regulations, to close going to solve a problem thats not really there? I believe there is a bigger motive behind this law because abortion rates have been going down. This is why I believe there is a bigger reason; men are doing this to show that they are still the ones who will decide what a woman can and can’t do.

Abortion represents freedom because it’s a choice a woman can make for herself without the consent of a man. I ask who are the lawmakers? The House of Representatives is made up of about 435 member and only 78 are women, that’s only 18%. The reason I say this is because abortion is defying men and the authority they ones had. Back in the day there was a ideology called the cult of domesticity where women had to cultivate: piety, purity, domesticity, and submissiveness. Religion and God was one thing that women had to maintain in the family, they had to be virgins until marriage, they couldn’t work because their place was to be at home, and lastly they had to do what the men said because men were considered to be the “the movers and the doers.” 

In present time women are allowed to do whatever they want, they have more of a voice now than they did before. The moment women decided they didn’t want to conform was when men started to lose the authority they had over women. Over time men have wanted to gain that authority back, and when it comes to law making they have the upper hand. By passing this law, many abortion clinics would close down limiting the access to abort, causing women to keep babies because they now have to travel hundred miles away to a clinic, which for some wouldn't be possible due to their economic problems. Indirectly women are doing what men want them to do because now they don’t have all those resources available to them because men banned them. Why? because men are taking it all away. I just don't get why they are trying to solve a so called "problem" thats not even a problem. I thought we were closer to the point where men and women are "equals" but I guess not.
