Here is an article written about one Thomas Beattie's decision to bear child in the PORTLAND MERCURY last week.Written by one ANNE ROMANO.

It is because of people like her that I am losing faith more and more in the human race...

NOT OKAY!!

I fucking hate "va-jay-jay".

[mr_tommy_gunn]

I hate that I ALWAYS laugh when I hear that word...like a 6 year old who just heard the word "penis" or something...

[gymx]

It just makes me grimace, honestly. I mean, it's better than openly misogynistic terms, but what grown woman goes around talking about her va-jay-jay? How many men talk about their wee-wees? And yes, anyone can call their own whatever they want to, but as the owner of one I have to say it's infantilizing.

Sorry for the rant.

but what grown woman goes around talking about her va-jay-jay?

You'd be surprised I guess. I dunno how that term is really any better or worse than "pussy" or "cunt".

va-jay-jay

Stop posting this. For every one article that sounds like this there are 5 others that are just like it. It's shitty, we get it. What's the point in posting them all? A bunch of Beatie spam? Yep, we get it, she's (and every other article like this ones authors) are speaking with ignorance and a bit of hate. What do you want? A bunch of comments about how terrible it is? Well here.

That's terrible.

iawtc.

[mr_tommy_gunn]

wow,if you are really that over it,than thanks for wasting your time and energy posting your snarky ass comment.

[goodyproctor]

I've dealt with the fact that ignorance is being written and posted everywhere about Beatie.

What I am not "over" is people like you who post this everywhere wanting to get a rise out of people and look like you're trying to say something about it. You've offered no solution to this, not even a way to contact the paper to reply. You've simply stated "NOT OKAY!" Yeah, we know it's not okay. This community, as well as Birls where you also posted this, has discussed it, again and again. Until there is a solution, which if you have one, please post it, this is just rehashing what is pointless and hurtful.
