In Argentina, the so-called "green tide" fostered a process of politicization of women's and childbearing people's desire and sexuality, closely tied to the demand for the right to voluntary termination of pregnancy (VTP), which gave rise to new configurations of subjective meaning. This study aims to analyze the subjective implications for adult women who accessed a VTP in 2023. Drawing on a qualitative and interpretive approach, intersecting with feminist and affective epistemologies, seven in-depth interviews were conducted with cisgender women. The findings reveal the subjective impact of pregnancy as an unwanted experience and the persistence of affects such as guilt, fear, and shame. The women expressed a strong affirmative stance regarding their decision to have an abortion, grounded both in its legal status and in the support of peer-based sociability linked to feminist activism, as well as feelings of relief and happiness regarding the procedure. Barriers and facilitators within the healthcare system were also identified, in terms of ensuring access to VTP from a comprehensive care perspective.
在阿根廷,所谓的“绿色浪潮”推动了女性及生育期人群的欲望和性取向的政治化进程,这与自愿终止妊娠(VTP)权利的诉求紧密相连,进而催生了新的主观意义结构。本研究旨在分析2023年接受自愿终止妊娠的成年女性所面临的主观影响。采用定性和解释性方法,并结合女权主义和情感认识论,对顺性别女性进行了七次深度访谈。研究结果揭示了意外怀孕带来的主观影响以及内疚、恐惧和羞耻等情感的持续存在。这些女性对堕胎决定表达了强烈的肯定立场,这既基于堕胎的合法地位,也基于与女权主义行动主义相关的基于同伴的社交支持,以及对堕胎手术的解脱感和幸福感。从全面护理的角度确保获得自愿终止妊娠服务方面,还确定了医疗系统中的障碍和促进因素。
