')I think one child per couple is desirable, myself, and that could be implemented simply by creating a social atmosphere where people would feel humiliated if they had more. I consider women who crank out child after child, irresponsible brood sows. It's not a feminist issue, it's a human rights one.
you've got a strange sense of human rights if you advocate that ten year old girls must have their ovaries removed unless they can pass some state test of the worthiness to breed. Of course, I can see that maybe you don't really advocate that. But that's what gg3 was saying, while claiming it to be the ethical thing to do. I was making my case against that and you came in dumping this sneering sarcasm. Also, "cranking out child after child" and "brood sows" is nasty rhetoric. Is it giving birth when a woman has one baby, but piggish if she has two, or, heaven forbid, she desires a family of four children? Maybe you will say, "see, you're talking about the proper way to hold a fork again." Call me a prig if you want, but a family with 4 children is not irresponsible if the children are all loved and provided for.
Perhaps this will help you to see where I'm coming from: I hear people railing against "fascist" governments, while accepting totalitarian proposals of forced sterilization for whoever doesn't "make the grade". It is obvious that what that would mean is the forced sterilization of whoever doesn't have connections with the ruling elite.
Actually, Penultimate, I'm calling you out in supporting the brutally fascist latino regimes, on the one hand, as a buttress against Communism and then having a hissy fit over the prospect of enforced sterilization. How dare you, of all people, get all sentimental and warm about human rights? My comments do drip with sarcasm, but you have blood on your hands. No, wait. You have blood on one hand, and a basketful of goodies for new moms and babies in the other. Grosse.
