Speaking of how fucked women’s health is right now, remember those ugly billboards Cienna posted about a few weeks ago? The ones emblazoned with sad-eyed stock image faces of knocked-up young women, advertising “options”?
The good news is that the one outside of Re-Bar has been replaced with a giant Re-Bar poster. To be fair, Re-Bar probably offers at least as much helpful advice for the unintentionally pregnant as YourOptions.com. Also, the bartender there is really nice.
The bad news is that KUOW dug up their origins recently, and it looks like they’re not going away. They’re run by the Vitae Foundation (get it?! Their crazy conservatism is all Latin and fancy!), an anti-choice media group linked with CareNet, one of the most notorious chains of limited-service pregnancy centers in the country.
On the Vitae Foundation’s website, you’ll find a giant, creepy set of closed baby eyes and the equally creepy phrase, “She rests blissfully because we didn’t.”
What a call to action.
But really, they should keep up the good work. Nothing is a better argument for contraception than creepy baby eyes. I mean, nobody wants to give birth to a demon. I’ve seen Rosemary’s Baby.
Can we show those guys “Alien”?
Oh now the cuts to an agency that provides low-cost cancer screening for women make sense. The GOP want to preserve cancerous cells growing within so they can proliferate unchecked and kill the woman. After all it is her fault or God’s will or a combination of the two.
Burbank, you are a rabid, ignorant idiot.
I think it’s very effective. Doesn’t look creepy to me!
What ever happens to be growing inside you…hmmm
What like, a baby elephant, a beanstalk or maybe an octopus?
What are you on about woman!?!?

You know, I don’t get it! I don’t understand how women can be so cold hearted and in many instances downright mean about “whatever is growing inside of them”. The thing growing inside of you is your child. Half you but still an individual. It may have your eyes, your smile or your sense of humor. You have effectively de-humanized it to the point that not only is it not a tragedy to abort it but in a sick twisted way you make fun of the idea. How sick does a person have to be? You rail against pregnancy help centers that do nothing but offer the very thing that you preach, which is a choice. A choice to give the child life. You would think that someone who was so much for “choice” would be glad that women were given that option. It just shows me that your argument is not about choice at all but instead it is about pushing abortion. You seem to have a hate not only for the unborn child but also for those who given the choice would let it live. What is your deal?
