“…First, reproduction has largely been considered a heteronormative women's issue (Riskind & Patterson, 2010), leading to the marginalization of males (Culley, Hudson, & Lohan, 2013;Ravitsky & Kimmins, 2019) and sexual minorities (Moradi, Mohr, Worthington, & Fassinger, 2009;Mercurio, 2019) who could equally benefit from and share the burdens of, reproductive health reforms. Second, women, are differentially affected given the "motherhood mandate" (Gotlib, 2016), maternal mortality rates (Khorrami, Stone, Small, Stringer, & Ahmadzia, 2019), career-family conflicts (Seierstad & Kirton, 2015), and risks for trauma and perinatal mood and anxiety disorders (Barnes, 2014;Hart & Flynn, 2016). Third, the reigning pregnancy prevention paradigm must integrate more culturally competent approaches that normalize the positive value of childbearing across diverse communities that do not share the Western ideals of selfhood (Arnett, 2008).…”
