In the US, Georgia is among a number of states to propose new laws restricting abortion as soon as a foetal heartbeat can be detected - which is at about six weeks into a pregnancy. After theactor and Me Too activist Alyssa Milano urged women to withhold sex in order to protest, #sexstrike started trending on social media. Batya Ungar-Sargon and Avery Everling have conflicting opinions on whether a sex strike is a good idea - and shared their thoughts with Nuala McGovern. (Photo: Batya Ungar-Sargon and Avery Everling.
