Women on TikTok say hook-up culture will be ‘decimated’ if Roe v. Wade is overturned
Some women have stated that they will avoid casual sex if they do not have abortion rights after news broke that the Supreme Court is poised to overturn Roe V. Wade.
“In case you’re a man who doesn’t care about Roe v Wade just know that if abortion gets banned hookup culture will be absolutely decimated,” TikTok user @moneymollusk (Bridget Gwyn) wrote in a video, which has received more than 1.2 million views in a single day.
“What women would have mediocre sex with a drunk rando if he could potentially father their child,” she continued, noting that the video is directed at “all the pro-life men who love Plan B.”
Many commenters on Gwyn’s video shared that SCOTUS potentially overturning Roe and Casey would motivate them to make changes their sexual behavior.
“I’m entering my celibacy era,” @rebecky69420 commented. “Deleting all dating apps as we speak,” @ghbsthbh wrote. “I already told my sneaky link, no more meet up’s cause of fears of pregnancy,” @confusedlobsters commented. “I’m scared that [sexual assault] numbers are going to rise bc (sic) we know how well ‘no’ can be tolerated,” another person wrote.
“Pregnancy rates are going to drop while death rates are going to rise,” @mrkrabsbadussyjuice commented. According to the Guttmancher Institute, a policy organization that focuses on reproductive rights, abortions are still sought in countries and states in which they are illegal. In 2017, the organization found that between 8 and 11 percent of maternal deaths were caused by incorrectly performed abortions.
In another video, which received 12,000 views, fitness influencer Nicki Cox said that the debate surrounding Roe V. Wade “isn’t just for women,” adding, “Since about 75% of men only care about sex and money I hope they know that this roe v wade decision could destroy hook-up culture and leave them paying 18 years of child support.”
