Pre-pregnant?

Women of the world - or at least the U.S. - we're in a lot of trouble.

Apparently, there's some guidelines out there that affect a pre-menopausal women's rights to certain health care because (get this) she may become pregnant. Apparently, the potential health of a potential fetus now outweighs the actual health of an actual living, breathing human being.

My BF has been saying for a while, this is not about abortion or birth control or choice. He's right.

This is about enslaving women. Barefoot and pre-pregnant. Got a ring to it, eh?

Here's the CDC's "pre-conception guidelines"

As if they didn't have more important things to be concerned with.
They're not taking into consideration that with the large amount of people living in borderline poverty, most "pre-pregnant" people nowadays cannot afford to take of themselves in the manner these idiots are suggesting, yet alone afford to be having children. I think our society today has more childless adults than ever in history.
