Happiness hit her like a train on a track

My name is Geenie, pleased to meet you.

SF Bay Area grown, I now dabble in the northwest. I enjoy photography, picking apart news articles, writing, baking/making food for friends, dachshunds, gerber daisies and rain. I am also in a constant and changing relationship with God. Get me talking about Ben Folds or Five Iron Frenzy and I won't shut up. Background picture is mine by the way...in case you were curious.

Life is messy, cruel and fast so have as much fun as you can and make every single moment count.

I love making new friends, so say hi :)

I also run a Dachshund blog.

Is pregnancy unethical? Yes, says UK bioethicist

Welcome to the Brave New World.

Do you realize what this says? Do you realize how utterly misogynistic this bullshit is? This isn’t, “we need to fix the problems that women and especially pregnant women face in an androcentric society,” or, “let’s eliminate medical complications that arise with pregnancy,” or, “motherhood and women need to be more respected in our society, how can we bring that about?” but, “a woman’s very body means she’s different from men, and that’s bad, it must mean she isn’t as good as men, so by gods we have to make her body manly.” This is sexism at its finest, masquerading as Feminism. It makes me sick.

I’m sorry, but what the fuck? is the only response I can muster at this particular moment.

If I weren’t so tired right now, I would respond with a long rant… but for now, just what in the world? is all I can produce.

I don’t even understand how someone can logically claim that pregnancy is an illness.

More on this later.

uhhhhmmmm. uhhhhhh uhhhmm WHAT?
