Mormon mom of six writes viral Twitter thread focusing on male responsibility in pregnancy
- When Gabrielle Blair first wrote the thread, she wondered if anyone would even listen.
- One of her posts says: That makes 24 days a year a women might get pregnant. But men can _cause_ pregnancy 365 days a year. In fact, if you’re a man who ejaculates multiple times a day, you could cause multiple pregnancies daily. In theory a man could cause 1000+ unwanted pregnancies in just one year.
- The no-nonsense thread garnered the interest of celebs including Alyssa Milano and Glennon Doyle who both have shared.
Gabrielle Blair is not a legal scholar or an ethicist or pundit. She is a 47-year-old self-described Mormon mother of six with a flair for design who currently lives in France.
And yet, what she had to say about abortion on Twitter — cut to the chase: men need to be far more responsible with their sperm so that women aren’t confronted with abortion as a way to deal with unwanted pregnancies — continues to light up the Internet … incredibly, some four years after she hit “Send.”
