Crosses are misogynistic? Who knew?
Via Campus Reform:
Pro-abortion students at Auburn University held a counter-protest on Wednesday against a pro-life display of crosses on the grounds that it was “misogynistic” and “sham[ed] women’s reproductive choices.”
Auburn University’s Students for Life (SFL) created a “Cemetery of the Innocents” earlier this week: 150 white crosses on the university’s lawn, each cross representing 20 lives lost to abortion. And it was those white crosses—not the pro-life message itself—that had another group of students up in arms.
“[The group of students] weren’t directly protesting against the pro-life argument, but they thought the display was shaming women’s reproductive choices,” Wesley Nelson, Auburn’s SFL president, told Campus Reform in an interview. […]
“I think these crosses are misogynistic because they’re shaming women for having abortions,” Imani Tucker, a senior, told the Plainsman. “We felt that since this happens every year, there’s a lot of misinformation and shame associated with a display like this and we wanted to counter that.”
