And don’t float “adoption” as an answer. Adoption? F**k you, seriously. I am not turning my body over for nine months of gaining weight and puking and being tired and suffering and not being able to sleep on my side and going to the hospital for a bout of misery and pain so that some couple I don’t know and probably don’t even like can have a baby. I don’t owe that couple a free couch to sleep on while they come to my city to check out the local orphans, so I sure as shit don’t own them my body. I like drinking alcohol and eating soft cheese. I like not having a giant growth protruding out of my stomach. I hate hospitals and like not having stretch marks. We don’t even force men to donate sperm—a largely pleasurable activity with no physical cost—so forcing women to donate babies is reprehensible.
This is why, if my birth control fails, I am totally having an abortion. Given the choice between living my life how I please and having my body within my control and the fate of a lentil-sized, brainless embryo that has half a chance of dying on its own anyway, I choose me. Here’s another uncomfortable fact for anti-choicers: Just because a woman does want children doesn’t mean she wants them now. Maybe she’s still got some fun-having to do. Or maybe she has a couple already and, already well-educated about the smelly neediness of babies, feels done with having them. Either way, what she wants trumps the non-existent desires of a mindless pre-person that is so small it can be removed in about two minutes during an outpatient procedure. Your cavities fight harder to stay in place.

The sad thing is how much time I’ve had to put into raising my children to be aware and plot “exit strategies” around encountering seething meat-mounds of hatred like this “thing” is. It’s almost unimaginable that they could ever have a meaningful or even functional at a basic level relationship with someone else. A man in her life would feel about as secure as a guest in the “Bates Hotel” on Halloween evening with a power outage.
They may be time sucking monsters in the beginning and money sucking monsters as teenagers. But when they become good productive members of society, because of all the time and money, it is when you see your return on that investment was very much worth every second and penny. You really do reap what you sow.
Those of us who,
by no intent of our own,
have no children,
entering into our senior years.
understand that statement all too well...
For Good and Evil...
I’m sure that some dyke would keep you from getting pregnant, see problem solved you stupid animal.
Amanda, you must have been a beautiful baby. Who stole your joy of life?
What a selfish self centered little witch. I prefer that she NEVER have children. But what in the world makes her the ‘expert’ on children when she has none?
Her mother must be so proud. Unless her mom wants grandchildren, then I hope Amanda has at least one sane sibling. My fourteen year old granddaughter is more mature than this.
I have four daughters. If I could do it all again I would not practice birth control. Four isn’t enough.
This sums it up.
My three kids WERE time-sucking little monsters, but I love ‘em.
I think it’s worth pointing out that the excerpt posted is from Amanda Marcotte, not the author (Cassy Fiano).
Camille Paglia was at least open in embracing abortion as homicide. This one still uses the old dodge of cell cluster removal.
They are direct voices from satan..those human are just tools...of evil.
Ok, so this sad excuse for a human being is allowed to “choose me” but when I want to “choose me” in the form of keeping my money and my time on this planet by NOT having both taken by force by their goverment —I am heartless? Got it.
Amanda Marcotte? She used to write stupid pieces for the Guardian about hating Texas and moving to NYC. I begged her not to enter my city but she didn’t listen. The Guardian (I think) eventually dropped her.
I knew way too many angry women like this in my clooege days. Now,,I don’t associate with such contemptible people.
I haven’t read all the comments, so someone may have already said it, but under the circumstances why doesn’t she get sterilized? As I understand it, it’s a simple, almost painless procedure.
Sigh.
A love affair for the ages
