What is feminism?
The radical notion that people are people. There is no end to the ways that people can be differentiated from one another: race, age, sex, gender, sexual orientation, and on and on ad infinitum. It is when these differentiations are used as the foundation for social and political hierarchies that systems emerge to limit choice, violate freedom, and do violence to people within them. Feminism knows this.

What is choice?
Choice means ensuring all persons have equal capacity to make fully informed reproductive decisions free from public or private coercion and interference.
