Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has announced she is freezing her eggs and has posted a video of her injecting herself with medication.

“This is just not something that men deal with,” she said before injecting herself.

“Men run for office, or frankly, they interview for jobs and people don’t think in the back of their mind, ‘OK this guy’s running for office, how old is he? Oh, well is he gonna wanna start a family?’”

“This is a choice I am making to feel more in control of my life.”
