Since when did pregnancy become a dirty word?
I was reading an article about the recent approval of plan-B for over-the-counter sales (ugh, so let me get this straight: the low dose form (aka birth-control pills) those require a prescription, but the high dose plan-B doesn’t?) and it struck me (as it has before) how much the word pregnancy has become a bad word like cancer. “Anything we can do to prevent a pregancy!”
Just another example of how the world has changed to see the family and new life as a bad thing.
