Earlier this week, people started the #shoutyourabortion trend in the hopes of removing the stigma surrounding it, abortion activists tried to flood Twitter using the hashtag #ShoutYourAbortion. Some posts were terribly twisted, but many showed the pain women encounter because of past abortions.
Lindy West set up the #shoutyourabortion because she’s not sorry for it.

While we don’t agree with the way it’s being done, we too believe in removing the stigma so that post-abortive women can find hope, healing, and freedom without shame.
Almost immediately, Pro-Life advocates began tweeting #ShoutYourAdoption to counter the messages of death with exclamations of LIFE!
Abby Johnson, Planned Parenthood Director and Pro-Life activist mentions on Facebook:
“So, Buzzfeed decided to promote the hashtag #shoutyourabortion. They are encouraging women to talk about how their abortion experience was so wonderful and that they have no regrets. I think it’s time for post-abortive women who are now prolife to take over that hashtag. Let’s tell them what abortion really is.”
We sure like the idea of the new #shoutyouradoption trend much more! Let’s promote life, not death. What’s your adoption story?
Will you shout your message of LIFE?
