Does that count as abortion?

You know what's even weirder? That's not even the first fetus forest I've seen depicted in media.

Anyone ever been in a conversation or class about "Men" or "White Men" and they talk about them as if they are actively putting people down and just feel lost because you are a white male and you REALLY don't intentionally put people down?

It is always confusing for me.

*shrug* I figure it's a tiny cross to bear.

I'm a Southerner who hears the South slagged on all the time for being racist and backwards and inbred. I am none of those things (okay, okay so there's a couple of cousin marriages in the family tree, but I'm not a Hapsburg or anything).

Individuals are not groups, so I've learned to mostly ignore sweeping generalizations against groups of which I happen to be a member.

Please tell me you've witnessed some very creative pro-life advertisements.

I've seen a fetus river before from a low budget samsara metaphor, if that counts for anything.

Yeah but I would NEVER hear that southerners are slack jaw hicks in a class unless they are talking about what a rediculous notion it is.

It is just weird to learn about how White men are such terrible people in a way where it is feels like I am being expected to know EXACTLY how I am hurting the world... Yet... I really don't.

Ahh. Well, now if it's being taught as a sociological truth, then that's problematic. If it's just classmates' opinions, then *shrug*.

You were NEVER in class where they said that women are a slave to "men" and that "men" are putting them down?

I find it hard to believe anyone existing in a time past 1979 says things like that.

???  "Women in Modern American History"  'Nuff said.  And, depending on what circles you roll with, sociology can be interpreted to say all of the above. . .

It was this sort of pro-life Chinese horror film. A woman is haunted by the ghost of her aborted child.

Oh. Yeah, that's a thing. Xiao gui (little ghost). There's a related thing in south-east Asia that goes by a lot of different names (like toyol), but it's more of a homunculus-type thing created from an aborted fetus.
