The story about experiences of Abby Johnson touched the hearts of everyone, no matter if you are Pro - Life or Pro - Choice and maybe it will change your heart, if you are in second group. I think it will.
Just few people knows how it works in this industry.
Few weeks before its premiere Unplanned got R - Rating from MPAA, which is given to movies describing as a violent, inclusive bloody, violent scenes, improperly for teenagers. It sounds to me somehow hypocritical, that even if movie portrays different cases of girls, who went for abortion and were maybe not even 16 or 17 years old in reality, their peers are banned from seeing this reality. And even if girl undergoing abortion is able to go there without her parents, her peers are banned from even seeing this without parents. No. This is not hypocritical. It is much more.
Somehow, social networks did their work in comparative way. You have your right to do and say everything, until it fits to someone opinion. And that someone has no inhibitions to use his/her power to show you, that until you will not change your subject of manifestation and your opinions, you will not get same right like others. Welcome to reality of 21st century. Freedom of speech is just word on paper and who is considered like ineligible, will not be able to be a part of this paper.
Luckily, there are still people strong enough to keep their values, their voice and they do not pay attention and their power to fight just against their virtual and real enemies, but fight for everything what is worthy.
I have many questions to concrete people, who are "Up". Is it not hypocritical, that you try to decide for women when and what movie they can see, even you try to decide, if body inside her body is real human being, even you try to decide what kind of right does she have, and still talk about women rights? What women rights do you fight for? We always talk about human rights and our only way for fighting for this rights is breaking down rights of other humans. You talk about rights of human groups, of religion groups and still you try to block them and try to take their rights of expression down. What kind of human rights are you fighting for?
Is it truly woman right, that she treat herself just like pot of something and have we not all right to give a life to other women and men? Are we not all people from the beginning? So what kind of human and women rights do you fight for?
I have two siblings. One with mental illness, one who was not planned and now I take care of her. And do you know what? I would not give them up, no matter what. Love is what plays main part in life. Women power is not based on what she cannot do, it is based on everything she can do. And if we think that abortion is way to empower, we lie to ourselves, because we treat women like underrated humans, who are not able and strong enough to fight for life.

This is a really good perspective...that people make abortion out to be an "empowering" thing for women, when really it just makes them feel like they are not enough possibly even more than they already did.
