Re: Too tired to be much entertainment tonight

Eeh, seems pretty legit to me.

People discovered that serious alcoholics who spent all pregnancy wasted could cause fetal alcohol syndrome and since you can't really do controlled scientific testing on the exact amount needed to fuck up a fetus by taking large groups and going "Ok, you guys have 1 glass of wine a day, you have two, you have three, you have four.... and we'll see which group starts having fucked up babies" they just went with "Alcohol can cause fucked up babies (if you drink enough.)"

Which has turned into this hysteria that if a pregnant woman so much as looks at a bottle of wine it's going to mess up the fetus. Add to that there's always some study or another that a woman ate tacos on a Wed. and then had a fucked up baby and scientists are looking into a possible connection between tacos and fucked-upedness it's really exhausting to be pregnant and everyone in the damn world is as much an expert on What You Should Be Doing as they were suddenly gorilla experts during the zoo mess.

Yeah, but as you say since we don't know how much is dangerous, and we will never be able to find out how much is dangerous saying "Don't ever judge a person who rolls the dice" is silly to me. Especially on the grounds of being cast out from adult socializing... Like alcohol is a necessary part of adult socializiyou

Also, what about other dice rolling? Smoking, for example? Smoking has the same issue, no proof of its affect on the unborn, should we not encourage pregnant women to give up smoking?

Hell we don't even need to stick with pregnancy, that just a particularly emotive example because there's babies involved, but people roll the dice on stupid shit all the time, should we not judge it? Like unprotected sex with strangers. You know it can be dangerous, but its not assured that if you do it you'll catch something nasty this time, but I net you would think someone was being stupid if the decided to take the risk?

Personally I'm more OK with that because they're risking themselves. I still thing its stupid, but people have the right to be stupid as long as they're only hurting themselves and are willing to face the consequences, but you see why its perfectly understandable to call a stupid risk stupid, right? And in the case of pregnancy, its not just a stupid decision that risks you, it risks another person - assuming you decide to carry the baby. Saying "Judging my stupid risk that could harm so one else is sexist so you don't have the right to do it" is a massive misuse of the concept of sexism.

Alcohol is an essential part of adult socialising... if you're a massive loser.

Yeah, but like... driving a car is amazingly dangerous, should we ban pregnant women from driving? If they eat food it could cause food allergies, do we force them to only take hypoallergenic IV nutrition? At what point do we draw the line of trying to police women's activities, on a scale of 1 being laying in a hospital hooked up to a perfectly formulated nutrient drip for ten months with constant professional monitoring, and 10 being skydiving on motorcycle while drinking a martini.

Additionally, prenatal vitamins have been linked to autism and the father smoking within 6 months of conception has been linked to passing in genetics for obesity. Should men be encouraged to go without smoking for 6 months before they have any sort of PIV sex?

Geez, you really want that booze while pregnant. Sure you don't have a problem?
