Abstract
The "war on women" has been a socio-political issue and an arena for feminist scholars' social critiques. The phrase gained media attention with "legitimate rape" remarks within the 2012 election. This piece looks at how this neo-liberal commentary has affected my personal agency through legislating my womb without permission, thus, rhetorically oppressing my personal agency through legal precedent.
