Let's Pretend This Post Is About Adorable Polar Bears
Yeah, so actually this post isn't about baby polar bears. It's about miscarriages. So you can see why I opted for the picture of a baby polar bear instead.
A Yale University student's art exhibit is generating a considerable (and somewhat understandable) amount of hullabaloo. Even menstrual blood paintings seem pretty tame compared to Aliza Shvarts' project, which involved a series of self-induced miscarriages. Shvarts has obviously drawn fire from pro-life supporters for the controversial exhibit.
So...um...baby polar bears. Cute, right?

Other stuff like this: controversy, miscarriage
It's a hoax:

Glad it's a hoax... it does still bring up a very valid point - technically, what she was claiming to do was legal... I've always been pro-choice, but I've also always thought there still needs to be some major limitations on what that means, and this proves that.
