Here below is document that I deem worth its salt.
You don’t have to erase every trace of childbirth from your body
Posted on December 5, 2013 by The Matt Walsh Blog
This woman had a baby a month ago. Now she feels pressured to look like she never conceived a child at all. Apparently, I have accidentally added to that pressure:
...
Kim,
...
Speaking of which, I’m about to do something that is very rare in my life, and possibly unprecedented on the internet: I’m going to admit that I was wrong. ... I don’t want to spend too much time rehashing a post from a month and a half ago (which is approximately 40 centuries in cyber years) but I also don’t want to sit here and let your husband cite me as justification to harass you about the weight you gained while carrying his child for nine months.
...
Thanks for calling me out.
-Matt

That IS really good, NadirGP.
I am pretty much immune from the tides of current social behavior. But i couldn't help noticing the
RAVING news headline about Kate Middleton [YAWN, I don't like her anyway] as having bounced back
immediately after a birth.
The articles would say : "See PICTURES !", trying to FORCE the world to bow down and worship some phony goddess
for one virtue only : this.
...
Then there was another woman celebrity who was fawned over for the exact same thing and likewise
the caption "See Pictures !"
Who cares ?
Who would waste their time assessing some stranger's waistline ?
I see it as Media Conditioning of the public to do what this Matt described so well : force ALL American women to emulate
horrible role models [Kate Middleton, all fake-"stars", Twiggy....].
And not want to have children out of indoctrinated shame about how they may look immediately afterward.
He is a good writer !
