Settle down or ‘lean in’?

January 7, 2019 By Andrea Mrozek Leave a Comment

Women! Settle down sooner! As someone who received this advice often enough, it’s worth mentioning why it’s unhelpful. Women certainly are not exempt from making wise relationship and life decisions, but there’s no point in gearing this advice exclusively to women when men need it too–along with just about every aspect of our culture. In […]

Feminists must ‘reconcile with their roots’, pro-life mission

November 15, 2018 By Andrea Mrozek Leave a Comment

An article about a recent talk I did for the deVeber Institute about the interplay between being pro-life and the feminist movement. The original feminist movement, the abolitionists seeking an end to slavery and then the suffragettes of the late 19th and early 20th century, were actually more pro-women and would have more in common […]

A Failed Moral Argument for Choice—Part 2: Let There Be Faith

August 29, 2020 By Lia Mills Leave a Comment

Blatant falsehoods. Verifiable inaccuracies marketed as scientific facts. A book set apart by its dearth of truth. This is where we left off in my previous blog post about the truth—or, rather, the lack thereof—that was found in Dr. Parker’s so called “moral argument for choice”. In this blog post, I want to explore a […]

A Failed Moral Argument for Choice—Part 1: Let There Be Truth

May 9, 2020 By Lia Mills 3 Comments

I recently finished reading “Life’s Work: A Moral Argument for Choice” by Dr. Willie Parker, a self-proclaimed Christian abortionist in the United States. I was interested in this book for two reasons: first, since Dr. Parker is an abortionist, his proximity to the practice gives him a unique perspective and opportunity for insight when it […]

Why “Choice” is an Unhelpful Term in the Abortion Debate

April 23, 2019 By Lia Mills 1 Comment

Pro-choice. Anti-choice. My body, my choice. Somehow, the abortion debate has been characterized by this one word: choice. I first started thinking of the term “choice” and its utility (or lack thereof) in the abortion debate when I started working on my spoken word: Pro-Woman, Pro-Choice, Pro-Life. I had a few different goals in making […]

The State of Freedom in Canada

March 30, 2019 By Lia Mills 2 Comments

“I am a Canadian, free to speak without fear, free to worship in my own way, free to stand for what I think right, free to oppose what I believe wrong, or free to choose those who shall govern my country. This heritage of freedom I pledge to uphold for myself and all mankind.” – […]

Ten Years Later: A Reflection (Part 2)

February 14, 2019 By Lia Mills Leave a Comment

#6: Because abortion is a gruesome medical practice. I suppose this reason is a branch off of the first reason I listed in Part 1—which was that the unborn child is human—but I wanted to be more specific. Any surgical abortion—whether at 12 weeks, 22 weeks, or 32 weeks—involves the violent and gruesome dismemberment and […]

Ten Years Later: A Reflection (Part 1)

February 13, 2019 By Lia Mills 1 Comment

It has been exactly 10 years and 10 days since I first posted my pro-life grade school speech on YouTube. Which means that it has been almost exactly 10 years since my family and I first realized just how viral the video was becoming, as tens of thousands of people watched the video each day, […]

Beware of the pro-choice echo chamber

February 1, 2019 By Lia Mills 3 Comments

Ten years. I have been doing pro-life activism for ten years. (I feel old just writing that…) I have always been 100% pro-life, because I am convinced that is the only intellectually consistent position to hold. Unsurprisingly, when I first started my journey into the realm of pro-life activism, I had many pro-abortion advocates challenge […]

Pro-life feminism vs. pro-abortion hypocrisy

January 21, 2019 By Lia Mills 4 Comments

Recently, as part of a personal feminist book-a-thon, I read F-Bomb: Dispatches from the War on Feminism by Lauren McKeon. I was particularly intrigued and interested in reading the book for two reasons. First, I know Lauren McKeon personally. She and I spent a fair amount of time together for an article that she wrote […]

Eugenics, Margaret Sanger, and the sordid history of the pro-abortion movement

January 10, 2019 By Lia Mills 3 Comments

I am back again with another article about—you guessed it—the unendingly problematic book Yes Means Yes: Visions of Female Sexual Power & A World Without Rape. This time, I bring you a criticism from Tiloma Jayasinghe’s essay “When Pregnancy is Outlawed, Only Outlaws Will be Pregnant.” The essay is really more about pregnancy than it […]

Kavanaugh is all about Roe v. Wade

October 2, 2018 By Andrea Mrozek Leave a Comment

This is a great little video clip about Lila Rose, done by The Atlantic, one of my favourite magazines. I enjoyed the clip–it says why you can be a feminist pro-lifer. But I’m posting it here primarily because it also does something else. In the thorny, divisive terrain of the hearings over Supreme Court nominee […]

Why I get teary when I see people with Down Syndrome

September 25, 2018 By Andrea Mrozek Leave a Comment

Because of moments like this, where a doctor advises a mother, five months pregnant with her wanted child, to abort because there is a diagnosis of Down Syndrome. Why would the doctor do that? For every person with Down Syndrome you see, there are eight or nine more who didn’t make it. Most recently I […]

The danger of a single “anti-choice” story

September 13, 2018 By Lia Mills 2 Comments

“Show a people as one thing, as only one thing, over and over again, and that is what they become.” – Chimimanda Nzogi Adichie Recently, thanks to a video that was circulated around on Facebook, I was re-introduced to the work of Chimimanda Nzogi Adichie, a renowned Nigerian author and feminist. I had first studied her […]

Men, women and abortion

August 31, 2018 By Andrea Mrozek 1 Comment

Jonathon Van Maren drew my attention to this letter seeking advice about whether a woman can ethically keep a child her boyfriend doesn’t want in the New York Times. He comes down hard on selfish and stupid men, which may very often be the case. However, we as women have taught men this is a legitimate […]
