Children!
Cupcakes!
Pro-life!

Attempting to make children pro-life activists by marketing the message to them on candy coloured cupcakes.

What a fucking creepy bake sale.

I seriously cannot stand the pro-life argument. Bitch made a post about it, and some of the women in the comments were calling themselves feminist AND pro-life ... WTF. "It's not the woman's body, but the baby's". Doesn't really sound all that feminist (or, i don't know, SANE).

Fair enough to say that you personally would never want an abortion. That's fine. I don't think anybody really WANTS to get an abortion. It's not like some women wake up in the morning and think damn, I've got to get me one of those. But Jesus Christ, there are plenty of reasons that someone might not want a baby, and these cupcakes are bringing the crazy extra hard.



Some disturbing quotes from the webiste:

  • Hand the cupcakes out with plastic baby fetus's, they normally come at the size of a 11 week baby which is the age and size of the average abortion
  • Hand them the cupcakes and ask people if they would like to see what an abortion looks like. If they say yes show them a picture of an aborted baby. These can be downloaded and printed from the internet. Just put the word Abortion into google and hit "images" and you will see abortion in full color. Burn an image onto a C.D. and then take it to staples to be printed on photo paper.
  • Invite some teenage girls over to bake the cupcakes then in your kitchen. Educate them about pregnancy and abstinence. Then challenge them to make cup cakes that represent how they feel about the unborn. Then have them take the cakes to their school and hand them out.
  • Q.) What if my school won't allow me to bring in cup cakes?

    A1.) Give them out before or after school!
    A2.) Do it anyway and be quick about it! Also be very apologetic and kind if you get caught.
    A3.) Ask for permission to bring in pre-packaged cupcakes from a bakery!
    A4.) Just pass out flyers and make cupcakes after school and hand them out to your neighbors in the name of life. Whatever you do, don't give up when confronted by opposition!
    A5.) Just hand them out somewhere besides school.
    A6.) Ask to set up a table at your local grocery store.
  • Bring in a tray of cupcakes for any group of people and you will find that they will flock to get them. As soon as they take a bite they will probably ask, "Who's birthday is it?" Then you answer. "It's no ones birthday. These cupcakes represent the 50,000,000 children who weren't allowed to be born, who never had a birthday." The cake in their mouth will become dry and the moment will hopefully become quite somber. Then you say, "If you and I were aborted we wouldn't have a birthday party either."
And on and on it goes until you just want to stick pencils in your eyes.

crazy, cooking, fucked, feminism
