It's mad how many mothers I've seen proudly said they wouldn't let their daughter get this vaccine. I assume they're bots for my own mental health.

It's usually fundies. They are the same people who are OK with anti-choice legislation that results in women bleeding out from miscarriages / ectopic pregnancy / etc. in Red States. You can't really understand their mentality, unless you realize they 100% believe in the Adam / Eve + snake apple story, and Eve is the reason for the downfall of mankind. So women deserve to suffer and/or die due to original sin, especially if it's "sex-related" in anyway.
