Leana Wen, ousted Planned Parenthood head, wrote a confusing and lightly enraging op-ed
about why she “left” the organization, stating she has “long believed that the most effective way to advance reproductive health is to be clear that it is not a political issue but a health care one.”that, per sources, “Wen also refused to use ‘trans-inclusive’ language, for example saying ‘people’ instead of ‘women’ and telling staff that she believed talking about transgender issues would ‘isolate people in the Midwest.
Wen explains her across-the-aisle stance during her tenure, which involved including “people who wrestle with abortion’s moral complexities, but who will speak out against government interference in personal medical decisions,” as well as those who oppose abortion but support abortion access and/or Planned Parenthood itself, in her words. She writes:
Ultimately, my departure is not about me or the organization I continue to care deeply about. It goes beyond the movement for reproductive rights to the very ethos of our country.
