not married? NO BABIES FOR YOU.

ummm, if i was an unmarried lady (which i am, but not for long CONGRATULATE ME MOTHERFUCKER) and i wanted to get pregnant and i couldn't do it naturally, i would be shit outta luck. that's messing with what goes on in my body. if i decide that i want to have a child, nobody should tell me that i can't because i don't have a husband.

the adoption thing was hyperbole, really. i mean if the state succeeded in making this law a reality and you weren't allowed to have children (can you see the inherent ickiness in that statement alone?) unless you were hitched, then who would give up their kids for adoption? unmarried women? nope. they aren't ALLOWED to conceive, silly.

what i would have rather seen was something that made a tiny bit more sense. marriage doesn't make anyone a parent. maybe if they were asking that unmarried women took parenting classes before they got knocked up then it wouldn't be quite as bad.

it doesn't matter, i guess, because the bill isn't going anywhere. it just upset me. i'm a single mom and if i wasn't able to have a child naturally, you can bet your little bottom that i would have gone some other route. to have the government tell me "nope sorry, no can do unless you say i do" would be horrifying. it's really not their business. at all.
