Sharon Stone Discusses Abortion and Women’s Health on Podcast

Actress Sharon Stone recently appeared on Michelle Obama’s podcast, addressing the topic of abortions and women’s health. During the “IMO” podcast episode, Stone shared her experience of having an abortion at 18, emphasizing her lack of sexual knowledge at the time. The 68-year-old actress revealed that she was uninformed about birth control, saying, “He didn’t have any knowledge or information that I should have some kind of birth control. And I had no…like when I tell you I could have been the girl who gave birth in the bathroom stall.”

Stone humorously remarked that her parents mistook her weight gain for the “freshman 15”. She criticized those opposing women’s healthcare, questioning, “And now we don’t want to give women care, OB-GYN care, and we want to prosecute women for having a miscarriage? What kind of arcane nonsense is this?” Stone further commented, “If men got pregnant, you could get an abortion from a vending machine.” Obama laughed in response, suggesting that if men could get pregnant, there would likely be a “birth Olympics”.

Obama elaborated, “If there were the birth Olympics… men would film themselves going into labor and honoring their pain and, you know it would be…there would be trophies given, you know, ‘well done dude,’ ‘Bob, you did that without an epidural.'”

Following the podcast, Laura Echevarria of National Right to Life criticized Stone’s remarks on abortion, asserting, “Vending machines are about convenience. Abortion is about consequences—it ends the life of an unborn child and can profoundly impact the mother. Reducing abortion to something dispensed on demand doesn’t elevate women; it trivializes both women and their children.” She also advocated for compassionate medical care for women and their unborn children.

Kelsey Pritchard from Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America commented on Stone’s statements, criticizing the Democratic Party for its approach to abortion and its impact on men’s perception of the party.

Recently, Stone also addressed fellow actress Sydney Sweeney over a provocative advertisement. Stone stated, “I think that it’s up to her to take responsibility for her actions, not up to me to judge her for her actions. It is up to me to be a cheerleader for the women who have made it through and become champions in women’s sports.”
