**curlcoat** , your obsession with all things pregnancy, baby or parenthood has become pathological. Your blatant refusal to acknowlege responses in threads that dispute your (erroneous) premises renders you no more than a fool. [http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=650590](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=650590) (If you want more curlcoat entertainment there is no shortage of threads devoted to her lunacy…hit ‘search’) But c’mon curlcoat, haven’t you grown tired of this spiel yet? Yes, we know you feel that your life has been disadvantaged by the fact that there’s all these kids being born into poor families…but you’re not the mum nor the kid are you? Yes, we know that your taxpayer dollars are helping to feed and house these mums and kids…but you’re not a taxpayer anymore, are you? Yes, we know that your advice would be that all of these useless mothers should terminate their pregnancies…but you’re not them are you? Yes, we know that it’s the offspring of these errant mothers who are responsible for all the crime and corruption in the world…except it’s not really. The GFC and major monetary crime (that affects EVERYONE) is perpetrated by WASPkids who wore fine leather shoes and went to good schools. And while we’re about it, many of your tax-dollars (the ones you don’t pay anyway) are helping to prop up the financial institutions who created this furore in the first place. It’s not the poor families who are making you suffer…it’s those decent, upstanding banks who are screwing you royally. Oh, and the insurance companies too…they’re just rainbows and sunshine all the way down they are!! I’m so over your condemnation, your refusal to listen to reason and your outright fucktardedness. Get a new bee in your bonnet please? ---

I do have to say, I’d never encountered anyone I’d describe as pro-abortion before. I mean not pro-choice. ---

I support this pitting. she almost makes me want to vote Republican on the chance that her benefits will be eliminated and I won’t have to support her sorry ass with my taxes any more. ---

It became quite obvious to me quite a while ago that she posts purely to provoke reaction. I don’t know whether or not she believes what she says, and I don’t really care. But she knows perfectly well that she’s pressing people’s buttons, and she loves it. As I said in some other thread, one of the most reliable SDMB rules is “if curlcoat agrees with me, I must be wrong.” ---

Well, I read a couple pages of the linked thread and came away with two things. 1. even sven is awfully smug and 1. curlcoat wasn’t being very annoying for, you know, curlcoat Does it pick up later? ---

:blink: Ummm… I really don’t see anything wrong with the OP in that thead. > [@](#): > > bad idea pregnancies > > * * * > > I wasn’t sure if this should go here or MPSIMS but here goes. I honestly don’t understand why it is that people are so happy when a woman/girl gets pregnant at a really bad time. She can be unemployed and unmarried but the reaction is the same as if she were actually ready to be able take proper care of a baby. She could be a teen who is looking at a good chance at ruining her life, but same reaction. How the girl/woman feels about being pregnant doesn’t seem to affect the reaction. > > Is it that they are just blinded by how they feel about babies? Or living in a fantasy land that it will somehow all work out? Or? I pretty much agree. If somebody I knew got pregnant at a really bad time, I would find it hard to be happy for them. A pointless pit IMHO. ---

Did you get the sense that the OP in this thread was complaining specifically and only about the OP of the other thread? Because there are three pages in that other thread and it seems to me that with the number of details given in the OP of this thread, many of which don’t seem to be based on anything in **curlcoat** ’s OP, that perhaps **kambuckta** was referencing the thread in its entirety, and not just the OP.

But do you find it _utterly inexplicable_ that other people might find some measure of joy in an irrevocable situation? Or that they might temper their public reactions to focus on the positive, instead of only and entirely discussing what a bad idea it is and how horrible it will be and how it’s a terrible shame? ---

Women who have children they can’t support or have abused prior children or are on drugs that will affect the fetus shouldn’t be allowed to keep a baby, tho for some bizarre reason the law says they can have as many babies as they want. You really think the law should not allow women to decide whether or not to bear a child? ---
