Her fans want #FreeBritney. Britney Spears' situation seems unfair to them. Why does her father have complete control over the lives of working women?The public is now more aware of the conservatorship for pop stars aged 39, which is a complicated legal arrangement meant to assist those who are unable to make their own decisions. It was difficult to determine what Spears thought about the #FreeBritney campaign. She was said to be embarrassed by the documentary. Yesterday she made her long-awaited public statement asking for the Los Angeles Superior Court to end her conservatorship.Some may be afraid of the details she revealed. Spears claimed that she was forced into work every day, to perform on tours, to take lithium, even though it made she feel drunk, as well as to pay thousands of dollars for rehab she didn't need. These were not the most shocking revelations for many.Pregnancy preventionSpears said to the judge that she was not permitted to take out her IUD. This contraceptive device, which has been in place for many years and is very effective in preventing pregnancy, was placed in the uterus by the doctor for several years. I would like to get married and have children. The conservatorship team told me right now that I am not allowed to marry or have a child.All of this has had a devastating effect. Spears called the conservatorship inhumane, and said that she was in denial. I've been in shock. I can't sleep because I'm traumatized. I am so mad it is insane. I'm depressed. Every day I weep.Britney's description of yesterday in court has all the look of an abusive conservatorship, according to Carrie Goldberg founder of C.A. victims rights law firm. Goldberg is not involved in this case. Everyone should be questioned by the judge and all of the appointed conservators.The IUD detail seems to have most struck women on Twitter:It was also noted that gender dynamics are important.It was extremely concerning that she was being treated and medicated against her will. Involuntary treatment always requires extra court involvement and evidence that the proposed treatment is the most effective, Goldberg states. It seems that the conservators went beyond what they had legal authority to do. They used the threat of losing liberty and public exposure in court to keep her submissive.Spears' conservatorship was intact at the end of the hearing. Goldberg points out that the judge could either end the conservatorship immediately or expedite the petition to end it. It is not clear how long this process will take.The complete transcript of Spears' statement can be viewed here.This article has been updated to include quotes from Carrie Goldberg.
