Ok, all that aside, that third chick asking about college--- what does that shirt mean...? No clothes hangers? Is that an abortion statement or does she just like folded clothes over hung ones?

Definitely a pro-choice statement: "Don't make women resort to [risky abortion techniques]"

I especially like her panels because it illustrates that even liberal, socially conscious people need to stay aware of their own biases. I try to be a progressive person, but that certainly doesn’t mean I’m immune to this sort of thing.

Yup, it's really well done

I assumed it was an abortion statement (pro-choice, as in, "don't make women resort to unsafe back alley clotheshanger abortions").

I like that take, and I'm going to go charish my lovely ceder hangers for more than just their rustic smell.
