This year I've fully grasped the reality of human built-in obsolescence and am wondering after all if being made in the 1950's or Germany would've been a better option.

Inspired by the old rhyme about little girls being made of sugar and spice, and little boys of slugs and snails. Turns out not to be true.

Things are coming full circle. If seems the reason abortion is (was) legal has been forgotten: women were dying in botched & backstreet abortions. It seemed humane to try to stop the women who will always seek abortions from dying. Not because the law is encouraging abortions.
