A History of Misogyny, Chapter I.
On Abortion Tourism | Marta (Krakow, 29). On January 2nd, 2015, she was forced to travel to Slovakia to have an abortion, which is illegal in Poland unless a woman's health is at risk, the fetus is malformed or the pregnancy is the result of a criminal act. Because she learned about her pregnancy during Christmas time, she had to a wait few weeks before making the trip. The anxiety of waiting made her try desperate (and cheaper) alternatives: "I took a bath in boiling water and swallowed many aspirins, but I did not succeed. I was too afraid to hurt myself. I just wanted to end it, I wanted to feel stronger than the law." On her 7th week of pregnancy, 445 euros in hand (all the money she had at that time), she jumped into a van at a gas station in Krakow, together with two other girls, and travelled to an abortion clinic in Sliac specialized in welcoming Polish women unable to have the procedure in their country. Although the almost 15-hour experience passed without any altercation, Marta still had to face her (at the time) coercive boyfriend. "He begged me to not do it. When I called him during the trip to complain about the van's bad smell, he answered: that seems fair, murderers should be treated as cattle." Krakow, Poland, 2016. © Laia Abril.

"Look up as the truth lies there. Always keep your eyes to the skies whenever you can. You just never know when that special event will happen. At those times there may be no answers, leaving you only to wonder what just happened or what you saw, and having to ask more questions...getting no answers. Life is a mystery, enjoy the ride."
