Ocasio-Cortez posts videos confirming she’s freezing her eggs
The Hill ^ | 08/09/26 9:16 AM ET | TARA SUTER

“Usually, I keep my private life quite private, but I have made the decision to start freezing my eggs, and I want to share that with anyone who is — and I want to share this because I was weighing it for a very long time, and I think that, you know, I was saving for it for a very long time, and there just isn’t a ton out there, I feel, and sometimes it can feel very daunting,” the New York Democrat said on her Instagram story Saturday.

“And as women in general, we are not taught about our bodies, we are not prepared for our own lives, whether that is in puberty, whether that is in pregnancy, whether that is in perimenopause, menopause, whether that is in so many different aspects of our lives,” she added.

Always a victim while at the same time proclaiming their empowerment.

Why doesn’t she just go F herself?

She’s not right. Women today have more knowledge about their biology than at any other time in history. She’s trying to say that women are victimized by society by being kept ignorant about their own bodies.

Once we get all of them gathered, can we take them outside and step on them?

(Un-oh, that sounds a little hostie...)

Not a woman, but I’m pretty sure every woman alive is aware of the ‘biological clock’ that they all face and that this has been the case since the beginning of humanity.

My wife worked for seven years at the Stanford Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility Clinic. She tells me, “Eggs do not freeze well. Embryos do.”

The key word is "knowledge".

Yes, you are correct.

However, they are indoctrinated or brainwashed or whatever term you prefer to use.

The ideal time for a woman to have children is when she is in her 20s.

AOC is 36, she will turn 37 in October.

...to have people stop taking her seriously.

The train left the station years ago on that one.

I very much doubt that AOC is complaining that she was brainwashed or indoctrinated into living as she has freely chosen to live.

That's debatable.

Women's "knowledge" of their biology today is that women can have penises, prostrates, and XY chromosomes.

Women's "knowledge" of their biology today includes that taking hormones as birth control is healthy.

Women's "knowledge" of their biology today includes that having multiple sexual partners doesn't adversely affect their mental health.

Women's "knowledge" of their biology today includes that they can deny their biology. That because they think something about their biology, it's true.

Her point is that women are easily influenced by societal norms.

And she was taught or "indoctrinated" to believe that women should have it all by prioritizing career over having children (which is a biological urge).

Again, I don’t think that is what AOC is complaining about at all.

If that is her point, why is she a warrior for the very faction behind all of that ‘indoctrination’?

She is starting to broaden at the hips, get a pudgy mid-section, and flatten out in the chest. It is no accident that she is seen wearing an outfit like this:

This process of body change is normal in women as they age, and is not normally a subject for criticism. It happens.

But in the case of a woman who has totally banked her public life (as brainless as it is) to her body habitus, and who is dedicated to destroying this country, she is wholly deserving of any ridicule we can send her way.

She knows her body is changing, and soon, people will be looking less often at her boobs and figure, and more at her changing face with the teeth that could eat corn on the cob through a picket fence.

And that mouth that goes with the teeth:

For a woman like Phyllis Schlafly, she could command real respect into her eighties regardless of the physical changes that life wreaks on all of us...because Phyllis Schlafly never used her sex or her looks to get ahead, and did so on the basis of her commanding intellect.

AOC does not have anything upstairs beyond Leftist posturing and pandering, and she knows that her window, both for her public life (and her reproductive life) is narrowing.
