Corporations are People. Women, Not so Much
Women, although quite relevant, should be changed to People with Uteri/Ovaries
Except that this wouldn’t be an issue if it weren’t for misogynistic attempts to control women’s bodies. Women are presumed to have this particular set of reproductive organs, and that assumption combined with sexism is what produces the horrifying desire to control contraceptive access, abortion, etc.
Yes, people who have uteri/ovaries and are not women will be impacted. Yes, I want those people to have full autonomy over their reproductive decisions. In fact, I want comprehensive reproductive rights for all people. However, that does not mean that these policies were not designed with the specific intent of impacting women. Neglecting that fact in favor of “inclusion” (and incidentally, this terminology that reduces people to their genitals is actually pretty ignorant of the way these policies operate on non-cis women’s bodies) obfuscates from the larger problem: sexism.
i knew it was only a matter of hours before we had to go over this again.

Except the point isn’t to erase other people when talking about your experiences. God forbid other women actually exist...
