By now, we’re all used to Azealia Banks voicing her political opinions on Twitter and sparking lots of debate.

A few days days ago, she was in total agreement with Donald Trump’s immigration sentiments. Sigh. Today, she is pro-choice—sort of. In a series of tweets, the contentious rapper explained why, although she is pro-choice, full agency should also come with some boundaries.

I’m totally pro-choice but i think there needs to be limit to how many voluntary abortions a woman can get. cause some chicks be wilding

Do you agree with Azealia or is she wrong for policing women’s choices?
