Pro-Polyester

A Pittsburgh-based anti-abortion group was out-and-about this rapturous Sunday morn in front of a women’s hospital. They had the usual dismembered fetus photo placards, but got creative and added a yellow arrow with “Abortionist” printed on it pointing toward the hospital’s entrance. Not surprisingly, the smiling placard-holders were mostly a) old men sans vajayjays or b) girls under the age of 16 who will be taught that their vajayjays are a dirty, dirty place over which they have no control.

I went to said pro-life group’s website and came across this creepy-ass doll with the caption: It is not just an ordinary toy but an instrument created to impress on children that life is sacred and beautiful. This loving mother and baby can be a device to help stop the senseless killing in the world…*with the exception being when we attack, maim, or kill doctors and nurses.

*OK, I added this.

And this thing is $30! You're certainly not paying for the doll's attire. White polyester overalls. PUHLEEEEZE.

Uh. Is that a pregnant CHILD? I'm infinitely disturbed. Maybe on some terrifying level, that doll prevents pregnancy, but here in my house, it's making me want to drink a fifth of vodka. Or snort something, anything, to get the ugly out of my head. And yet, I'd like ordering information. Someone's getting that shit for Christmas...
