A loser du jour came to this blog yesterday to announce to me that a fetus is not part of a pregnant woman’s body because something something. . . placenta seperates. . . something something. . . placenta is a body part but a fetus inside it somehow isn’t.
It is really funny that this preachy idiot who – I am absolutely sure – has no capacity to be pregnant at all would try to educate me about “seperating placentas” at this particular moment in time. As I as reading the idiot’s comment, I was suffering from an affliction called “pruritic urticarial papules and plaques of pregnancy.”
PUPPP is a very nasty rash that 1 in 200 pregnant women get in the last weeks of pregnancy. Usually, it afflicts women who are carrying boys. The rash is so bad that many women ask to be induced weeks earlier than their due date, and many doctors actually agree because women suffer so badly. Believe me, this is horrible suffering. I have no idea what can carry one through it other than the knowledge that one has freely chosen pregnancy for oneself.
The rash happens when fetal cells invade the skin cells of the woman. Tests have shown that male DNA is present in the skin eruptions of women with PUPPP who are pregnant with boys. Does this sound close enough to a body part for everybody?
This is what the fight for the reproductive rights is like: women, doctors, and scientists try to explain what a pregnancy is to a world filled with officious losers who know nothing about the functioning of the human body but believe themselves to be entitled to decide what happens in the bodies of others.

Hi Clarissa, Sorry to hear you have PUPPP. It is an awful thing but at least you know that once you have the baby it will go.
My old boss told me once that nobody is a complete waste of space as they can always serve as a bad example.
Similarly, I would suggest that losers like the one you write about might be of some value in that they might provide a moments distraction from your extreme discomfort.

Lol, nasty rash, karmic justice for the woman who rants about patriarchy. 😉

I’d much rather have PUPPP than be afflicted with the intellectual deficiency that makes one imagine a connection between a rash and patriarchy.

Attack of the male DNA. Patriarchy is even more insidious than we had thought.
