In response to Georgia’s “heartbeat” bill, pro-abortion activist and occasional actress Alyssa Milano has exhorted her social media followers to engage in a #sexstrike. “Our reproductive rights,” says she, “are being erased. Until women have legal control over their bodies we just cannot risk pregnancy.”

Apparently, abstinence is the sole form of control women have over their bodies that in all instances prevents unintended pregnancies.

I applaud Ms. Milano for her powerful stance in support of this fresh, progressive idea. In fact, instruction in the specifics of this novel approach to pregnancy prevention should be incorporated into high school curricula everywhere.
