Netflix reality dating show contestant Amber Pike flipped the Left’s “shout your abortion” narrative on its head when she opened up about her abortion regret, detailed post-abortive emotional trauma, and made it clear that going through that experience again would “destroy her.”
Speaking to male contestant Matt Barnett during an episode of “Love is Blind,” Pike revealed that an ex-boyfriend pressured her to abort their child when he found out she was pregnant.
Tears in her eyes, Pike told Barnett that she she did not “follow through” with the pregnancy, revealing the abortion. “It was really the hardest thing I’ve ever gone through in my life,” the contestant said, according to The Washington Examiner. “It’s not exactly something that’s like — I’m proud of.”
After the abortion, her boyfriend didn’t understand why she couldn’t just “move on” from their baby being killed, Pike explained.
“After the fact, we were just talking. I’m telling him, like, I’m trying to explain what I’m going through, like, I’m having a really hard time getting out of bed in the morning,” she told Barrnett. “I don’t eat. I’m not really sleeping. I just — this was supposed to be my other half.”
“And his reaction, he goes, ‘Why don’t you just get over it? You just need to get over it already. Like, move on,'” the 25-year-old recalled. “That is the last thing in the world you want to hear.”
“I can’t survive that again,” an emotional Pike told Barrnett. “It would destroy me.”
Pike’s abortion story comes in stark contrast with Democrats’ push to normalize and celebrate abortion.
As reported by The Daily Wire on Wednesday, Renee Brecey Sherman, an abortion activist who fancies herself the “Beyonce of abortion storytelling,” wildly celebrated abortions and “future abortion providers” to a hyped crowd of activists gathered outside the Supreme Court.
“A special shout-out to — Where my people who’ve had abortions? Where y’all at?,” said Sherman. “Nothing about this work is going to be without us! Woo!”
Sherman also celebrated her own abortion, calling it “one of the best decisions of my life.”
“So as I said, I had an abortion when I was 19. It was honestly one of the best decisions of my life. I was simply not ready to become a parent, and that’s really all you need to know,” the activist shouted.
Far-left Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) was in attendance at the rally, as well. “This past year, I realized — my, my, my are they obsessed with our bodies, how we talk, how we look, what we stand for — I mean this type of policing of our bodies is so interconnected to all the social justice movements all around the country,” the elected Democrat told fellow abortion activists.
“You know I, in the legislature, in the Michigan legislature for six years, used to say to people, ‘Yo yo, you know what? You’re so freakin obsessed with what I decide to do with my body, maybe you shouldn’t even want to have sex with me,’ or with you, or with any woman,” Tlaib added.
As noted by The Washington Examiner, research shows that post-abortive women “are 34% more likely to develop an anxiety disorder and 37% more likely to experience depression.”
