Let’s not split hairs here.

 

For all practical purposes, an umbilical cord is the same as a dumbwaiter Uncle Tim asked you to install so he doesn’t have to move his fat ass from the downstairs couch when he wants food. Well, there is one difference… you don’t have to clean off the tray after each meal.

 

A baby being inside a woman’s body is no different than a houseguest burrowing into your spare bedroom.

Think of a woman’s body as a house. A. Brick. House. Mighty, mighty.

 

Anyway…

We’d never dream of treating a houseguest as a sub-human, inferior being over whom we have total sovereignty. Maybe start treating our flesh and blood, unborn sons and daughters with the same amount of respect?

 

Maybe?
