Apparently, the mere acknowledgment of a fetus is a big no-no to some militant Feminists. Enough of a no-no, that one had to post about it in the community forum of Feministing.com, a hot bed of predictable Feminist shrieking and cognitive dissonance.
A Yahoo sportswriter committed the horrid politically incorrect faux-pas of writing the following about a pregnant member of the Canadian Women’s Curling team:
As with all curling teams, Team Canada features five members. Well, six, if you really want to get technical with it.Alternate Kristie Moore, 30, is 5½ months pregnant, making her just the third athlete known to be with child during Olympic competition.
Huh. There doesn’t seem to be anything rage-worthy in those sentences, does there? Not if you are, you know, sane. However, as Jill Stanek noticed, if you are a militant feminist, it’s a different story. A member of Feministing.com’s community posted about it (I picture her taking a break from scrawling madly in her manifesto to post it, all furious and furrowed brow-y) and said the following:

Wow, what a surprise.
Oh sheesh, does that liberal lady have a brain comprised of rotten lemon pulp and does she smother kittens and puppies in her spare time at home? Her heart was touched in spite of itself and She Just Couldn’t Have That.
Just another hate-filled lib with a skull full of dead insects and dried leaves.
I have never seen a good looking feminist babe? They all seem to be men hating, lesbians, with cropped hair?? I’m not joking, I am yet to see one that is enough of a looker to look twice.. Now, that is the “traditonal” form of feminism, the contemporary feminist is what I akin to the likes of Sarah Palin. Now she’s a looker.. :)
Oh, feminists hate Sarah Palin... Go figure? :)
Tim-
predictable Feminist shrieking
Still trying to convince themselves and us that they don’t kill babies.
How about all feminists voluntarily have themselves steriliZed. That way, they will not have to acknowlege or deal with any fetus and are free to live their lives in their own manner.
It’s like a real die hard atheistic evolutionist getting hot every time he hears somebody talk about a “wild creature.” It’s perfectly good linguistic convention but it also opens a mental door he wants to keep firmly shut.
It does seem that the women who rant most loudly about abortion "rights" are usually the least likely to need one!
