Conservatives Mock Stephen King As ‘Transphobe’ For Claiming Abortion Would Be ‘Sacrament’ If ‘Men Could Get Pregnant’

Republicans are accusing outspoken leftist Stephen King of being a” transphobe” online after his Thursday comment he made about pregnancy.

It has been said before, but it bears repeating: abortion would be a sacrament if men had become pregnant, according to the best-selling artist.

Many Twitter users pointed out that his side of the argument holds that men can really become infertile as a result, which means his assumption is at odds with his purported beliefs.

Billboard Chris, a critic of extreme female theory, responded,” Transphobe.”

Another person remarked, identifying King’s’s stance as that of a” trans – exclusionary radical feminist ,”” Never pegged Stephen King to be TERF.”

Do you mean to say that men can’t get pregnant? Another woman enquired.

Stephen, welcome to the transphobe party! Many of us are already present, including friend author J. K. Rowling. You’ve’ve met, right? Someone else responded.

” I’ve’ve been told repeatedly that men, in fact, can become pregnant. You bigot ,” remarked another.

After being posted on Thursday, the message easily gained 4.2 million views and went viral.

Abortion remains a hot button political issue following the 2022 reversal of Roe v. Wade by the Supreme Court. Now states are able to make their own abortion laws, which most recently led to Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signing the Heartbeat Protection Act into law. This will restrict abortions in the state after a fetal heartbeat can be detected, which is usually around six weeks gestation. 

Other states which have similar laws include Alabama, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Missouri, North Dakota, South Carolina, and Texas. A new report found that there were 32,000 fewer abortions since the Dobbs decision.  

King is no stranger to getting mocked online. In January, he shared his opinion on banned books, which also sparked a big reaction on social media.

” Hey, young people! Steve King, an old friend of yours, is warning you that if a book is banned at school, head straight to the closest bookstore or library to find out what they don’t want you to view, according to King’s’s message.

Many of their supporters noted that these” banned” books frequently contained pornographic images that are inappropriate for kids.

Is sex included in this? I’m’m fairly certain that parents don’t want you telling their kids to access pornographic content. At the time, Stephen Miller, a former top assistant to President Trump, said.

Republican Nick Frietas of the Virginia House of Delegates retorted,” I’m’m not sure Stephen understands how frightening this is, considering the products being restricted are openly erotic.”
