Liberals heads will spin right off their axes when pregnant women demand that everyone use the pronouns “they“ and “them“ during their pregnancy. Liberals will say these women are abusing the pronouns because there’s no gender change. Women will explain that there are two lives whenever they are being addressed, so “they” makes the most sense. In fact, it makes more sense than using it to explain your gender dysphoria.

There's a mounting body of evidence on how having or being denied an abortion affects pregnant people, including impacts on their mental health and the finances of them and their children. The effects on their male partners have received less attention. In the wake of the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade, experts say that no longer should be the case. "It's really naïve to think that the repeal of Roe is only going to impact women and pregnant people," said Dr. Bethany Everett, a professor of sociology at the University of Utah. While the issue disproportionately impacts people who...

Bill Maher blasted Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and her progressive ilk for losing the debate on abortion thanks to the use of woke slang including 'pregnant people.' Speaking on his show Real Time with Bill Maher Friday - hours after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v.

'For decades, liberals have said,...

As the delta variant of COVID-19 spread across the United States this summer, the virus appeared to take a particular toll on unvaccinated pregnant people, with deaths dramatically increasing in the summer months.

More than 40% of the 248 deaths among pregnant people since the start of the pandemic occurred since August, the data shows. The number...

Fauci appeared on NBC News’ “Today” show on Thursday morning, where he talked about the COVID-19 vaccine, among other subjects. During his interview, Fauci suggested that pregnant women are often vulnerable to severe disease from COVID-19, and they should look to get vaccinated. “When pregnant women who are not vaccinated get COVID-19, they get into serious difficulty,” Fauci said. “There’s no question that recommendation had to switch from ‘could’ to ‘should’.”

Centers for Disease Control Director Rochelle Walensky repeatedly referred to “pregnant people,” instead of “pregnant women,” during a press briefing Thursday. “For pregnant people who are at a higher risk of severe illness from COVID-19, we are strengthening our guidance and recommending that all pregnant people or people thinking about becoming pregnant get vaccinated,” she said. Walensky said the CDC has obtained new data about “people who were pregnant,” ensuring the vaccines are safe for “pregnant people.”
