larious



or perhaps, "Do you have any gross stretch marks yet?" or, "Has your pussy started hanging out it's hole yet?"

If YOU are the "exception" to what I am saying, then why does my commentary bother you so much?
I don't hate your kids, I HATE YOU!

When told that someone is pregnant for the first time, my response is almost always, "Well, her life is over now." Haven't ever said it to anyone's face, though I might if they were militantly annoying about being pregnant.

So, it would probably be uncouth of me to say to a preggo about to pop, "Ohhhh. I'm so sorry. I guess you've run out of time to have an abortion."

It's your hell; you rot in it!

A companion thread could be: What not to say if you are a pregnant woman

"I am dilated to 1 cm and my doctor says my cervix is softening"

"The baby is kicking me in the bladder and I have to pee constantly"

"A good way to induce labor is nipple stimulation"

and the worst

(said with sincerity, not knowing the depths of my revulsion to all things breeding) "CrabCake, I have been waiting for the baby to be really active so that you can put your hand on my tummy and feel him moving"

I currently have THREE knocked up coworkers, so I am inundated with this shit on a daily basis. I am trying to look on the bright side. It is helping in my appetite control and weight loss program.

You have all clearly demonstrated that if she thinks the "is it wanted?" question is the most insulting thing evar, she hasn't met us. I'm always tempted to ask the ones related to overpopulation.

I'd like to offer a ride to planned parenthood when someone first says she's inpig.

ANY of the talk that starts a sentence with, "My cervix" just grosses me out.

How about, " Do you have any idea who is the father?"

To quote a line from Patch Adams: "Let's visit the maternity ward, you know those women put out". By announcing to the all those in ear shot that there's a "bun in the oven" then that woman has already said she has a sex life. So why feel the question "where you trying?" is rude? If you don't want to be asked what you think are dumb ass questions then keep your dumb ass mouth shut.

Besides, I have to wonder if this is one of those females on a publicly accessible forum talking about her BFNs and how often and in what positions her and the sperm donor are doing the reproductive deed.

apparently, it is rude to ask a pregnant woman "were you trying" or "who's the father", but it's a-okay to ask child free women "are you going to have babies" or "what's wrong? can't have any?"

among my cousins, the question not to ask is "what's the father in for?"
