MY BODY - MY CHOICEThis photo is from a collection of portraits taken of members of the Oberlin College 2012 production of The Vagina Monologues. On November the 6th the nation is voting between two candidates with radically different policies concerning the right of women and people with periods to decide how they treat their bodies and live their lives. If you identify with one of those groups, we hope that you vo

If you are not a woman or a person with a period, think of those in your life whose bodies and agency will be deeply affected by this election, and vote for them. Your mothers, sisters, lovers, and friends deserve equal standing in this nation, and a government that does not treat them as second-class citizens. Vote today, vote thoughtfully, vote for respect, and vote for choice. Description adapted from Arianna ValocchiPhoto by Brannon Rockwell-Charland —
