This broad is all over the map. “I am not defined as a woman by my breasts and my vagina.” “Men staring at my breasts and my bleeding out of my vagina are the experiences that define me as a woman.”

Look, I have a one-year old at home. Emotionally speaking, that little girl was a person to me from the second that little plus sign popped up. But that’s just it. My emotional connection to her, a very deliberate and planned pregnancy, made her a person from right off the bat. Does that mean that biologically and,…

EXACTLY. You could start moving in the direction of “well, this woman slipped and fell down a flight of stairs at 23 weeks pregnant, resulting in a miscarriage. We are now charging her with reckless child endangerment.”

Measuring from date of last period, which is the standard in Western medicine. A pregnancy is considered full term at 40 weeks, which counts for the 2 weeks pre-fertilization. Technically speaking, a zygote/embryo/fetus is only present for 38 of those 40 weeks.

Or, at the very least, how can that life be more important than the life of the woman carrying that fetus?

Let’s see. 5 1/2 months pregnant is roughly 22 weeks. Medically speaking, a fetus’ chance of successfully surviving outside of the womb starts at 24 weeks (with something like a 30-35% chance of survival). I’m wondering, how could this be considered murder if, under different circumstances where she had naturally…

I am so sorry that happened to you.

I couldn’t help but wonder...can you take a pregnant pause, and pause your pregnancy?

It is my very sincere hope that she was never pregnant to begin with; the alternative is too gruesome and awful.

WOW. That is some detailed speculating/assuming you are doing there.

THIS.

Agreed. Even a 13 year-old is entitled to bodily autonomy (hair included).

Have you ever seen the awesome “Confessions of a GoGo Dancer?” Anything that starts with “Confessions of...” or ends with “... : The (fill in the blank) Story” is bound to be pure gold.

That cast is AMAZING.

HEY.

I live in the Bay Area, and you are right.

As someone who was a huge fan of Roswell in high school (DON’T JUDGE ME), I am all for anything Shiri Appleby does. Loves her.

EXACTLY. This movie has enough big names tied to it that casting a lesser known actress of Asian decent would probably not have much of an impact on the bottom line.

Or possibly Will Smith or Jennifer Lopez, two of the only POC in Hollywood who are often given roles that were written for white actors/racially ambiguous. But, as is the point with this article, the presence of actors AND characters of Asian decent are so massively underrepresented in Hollywood that this type of…
