Re: Too tired to be much entertainment tonight
(Anonymous) 2017-05-25 12:41 am (UTC)(link)That may be true, and it's certainly fine to play it safe.
But here's the problem. Pregnant women are told to avoid pretty much everything. Loads of common foods, for example, certain exercises, whatever. And it may not even be a significant number of doctors recommending this stuff, in fact, the studies it is based on may be shaky or non-conclusive. But if you're "playing it safe", why not avoid everything?
At some point, the stress and anxiety of worrying about fucking up your baby has a bigger chance of actually fucking up your baby (or, you know, you). Not that it's fine to just go totally carefree, but scaremongering pregnant women is not cool. Neither is shaming them for catching them eating a piece of sushi, or peanut butter toast, etc.

(Anonymous) 2017-05-25 09:13 am (UTC)(link)It's not that hard to avoid alcohol, blue cheese, sushi, etc etc. Sure it sucks but most people are happy to play it safe for the sake of their baby. It sure as he'll isn't sexism. What's 'being a paragon of virtue' about not eating sushi for nine months for fucks sake.
