With their cat Tillett checking in on them, a shaft of light shines on Josie Norris’ face as they hang out at home on Oct. 30, 2022, in San Antonio, Texas. “My decision to have my fallopian tubes removed was not one I took lightly. When I was 21-years-old, I got pregnant when a condom broke with a casual hook-up right before Spring finals while at Central Michigan University. I spent final weeks of class obsessively googling what the odds of me being pregnant were and taking pregnancy tests. After the semester ended, I took the last pregnancy test I had. After peeing on a plastic stick, one of my biggest fears came true: I was pregnant and I wanted to be ‘unpregnant’ as soon as I could. I was about to move to Texas for a big internship and and began calling clinics looking for an appoitnment. I was able to be seen two hours away a few days later for a medical abortion. My experience was a lonely one— at the time of my abortion only one person knew I was pregnant— due to shame and the stigma of abortion I had witnessed growing up Evangelical Christian. The six months I spent in San Antonio was a healing and beautiful experience and when I returned to school, it was important to tell all my close femme friends what happened because what is mentionable is manageable. After my abortion, I knew I never wanted to be pregnant again. My surgery recontextualized the trauma of my abortion and my body will never betray me with a preganancy.”
