When Donald Trump won the election, we saw a tsunami of leftist tears. Some expressed their rage with unhinged social media posts, others shaved their heads.
But then there are the Americans who are preparing for Trump’s return to the White House by … stocking up on abortion pills, emergency contraception, and gender-transition hormones.
According to Aid Access, a nonprofit that facilitates mail-order abortion pills (because people are so lazy these days, they won’t even leave the house to go kill a baby), demand for abortion medication has exploded, from 600 requests a day to 10,000 requests the day after the election.
And they’re not alone in this: emergency contraception company Cadence saw five times their usual weekly sales. Wisp, a telehealth service, reported a whopping 1,650 percent increase in emergency contraception sales.
People are panic-buying Plan B like it’s toilet paper during COVID.
Here’s one of my favorite lines from one of the abortion pill makers:
Clearly, people are trying to plan for the reproductive apocalypse that we anticipate will be happening under a Trump presidency.
That’s Elisa Wells, co-founder of Plan C. And I think she really means this.
There are also women making plans to get sterilized … because nothing sticks it to big bad orange man like … not procreating.
Take that, Donald!
And let us not forget, they’re stocking up on gender-transition hormones too.
Dr Crystal Beal, meanwhile, was dealing with an influx of emails on Wednesday from trans patients concerned about their access to hormones and hormone-blocking therapy. Beal runs a site called QueerDoc, which provides estrogen, testosterone and hormone-blocking drugs. Trump is hostile to trans rights, vowing to punish doctors who provide gender-affirming care to minors, and Beal’s patients wanted to know how to protect themselves from a second Trump administration.
By early on Wednesday afternoon, QueerDoc had already received more messages that day than it would in a typical week …
Beal said the service was advising patients to stock up on as much of their hormone treatment as state law and their insurance coverage allowed, and even suggesting trans men reuse single-use vials of testosterone to make them stretch farther.
The desperation is sinking in for these people. How will they ever transition to the other gender (which they claim to already be) without adding hormones to the mix??
Trump’s America is already so much fun, isn’t it?!
