Book Synopsis
This is a critical exploration of historical perspectives to modern controversial topics in gynaecology; from birth control to sterilisation, to episiotomies and the "husband stitch," to "educational" pelvic exams, shackling labouring convicts, gender affirming surgery, human embryo research, assisted reproduction and much more. This book poses questions for us to consider about the current and future reproductive ethical decisions. Does reproductive health need more or less regulation? Who should be deciding? The Thin Pink Line: Regulating Reproduction is a brave and honest look at where we have been, so we can figure out where we want to go. The Thin Pink Line: Regulating Reproduction is intended to educate a wide audience of womynx, men, femmes, gender non-conforming folks, uterus owners, and everyone in between. It has a specific intersectional focus on the impact that the current reproductive regulatory framework has on disenfranchised groups, such as people of colour, LQBTQ individuals, and the lower socioeconomic strata.
