I'm going to the corner to cry now... shiv-alry is truly not dead in here. I hope I'm on the wrong side here. really. 'biner just told me on facespace that she doesn't give a fuck. fb messaging being somewhat easier on the iyup than the bloated monster that is this chat room thread. i was implying that she was hanging me out to dry by letting you think she might actually cry. but by your logic, no women of childbearing age should ever be an obgyn or geneticist. (because it fucks with our brains.) I know some brain-curdling shit, for sure, about what can go wrong, and I have never even had to consider it happening to an extant, wanted and loved fetus of mine. I know you have a personal perspective on some of this, but, your implication In reply to: No, I'm saying don't do anything to fuk with a potential childbearing woman's mind regarding childbirth. Missing hand or not. It's just like telling the bride that she should be marrying the guy. In reply to: that women's brains are just too delicate to deal with realities of what might happen, and that ANY such conversation, no matter how tangential or hypothetical, should be avoided is distasteful to me. We're not discussing realities and that's the problem. Let the women deal with realities when they are real. And the real emotion or response to biner's birth has no positive benefit. She knows that her parents took care of her and raised her. Knowing how they reacted to her birth does not change that. (you are quick to jump on the woman as inferior angle of anything) here's the thing that I fail to see: how does asking "hey did you know if i had both hands or not before i was born?" constitute fucking with somebody's brain about having babies? that something so tangential would require such a volume of chivalrous defense so as not to 'fuck with' 'potentially child-bearing women's minds' seems patronizing to me. especially since Biner is the one who brought it up and wanted to know... Sorry INC but i think you're way off route on this one. I will remind all that Inky has a little girl with challenges so we should not project a disinterested position upon him. I don't think that's the cause here. Here we had an adult who couldn't ask the question 3 years ago. I should go and read her quote again cause maybe this is where I'm off base, but I remember it being a question of how her parents reacted to her deformity. Not a question of if they knew about it. Apparently she hadn't come to terms with it then, I don't think now is the time to try either. Imagine if the response she gets from the parents is not all sunshine, now imagine the two days leading up to her ultrasound. Why would you want to put her through that just to fill some curiosity? I'll stand by my don't fuk with their minds comments. Sometimes you think something might not fuk with somebody's mind but it turns out they have a history of problems in that area and it really causes problems for the other person - like zeke's photoshoping. In reply to: I wonder if my parents freaked out a little bit when I was born, or if they even knew about my arm before I popped out (like from and ultrasound) or if it was just one big suprise. I've never bothered to ask them, it's never really came up. But at least I was healthy (too healthy, if you ask my mum ;) ) i guess i read "too healthy if you ask my mum" and assumed they 'reacted' just fine, because i wasn't asking about that part. much of the thread was talking about prenatal diagnosis, and i was wondering if you could see lack of a hand on the screen. presumably. but i dunno? 'biner's words to me were something like "i dont care, and anybody who knows how i am about this sort of thing knows that i don't care. so no, i don't care." as far as the fuck with minds avoidance... there is reasonable, and there is unreasonable. i'm not going to go around not asking people, for example, if they know if it's a boy or a girl just because some genetic diseases are specific to one sex and somebody might have a family history that i dont know about that makes a chance of something bad or lethal and they're burst into tears. totally plausible scenario, but not one i'm gonna plan for. i felt like i knew 'biner well enough to ask teh question, and she doesn't seem to give a flying fuck, which is why i don't understand why you jumped down my throat. especially as it was a very specific question, not a general one that might raise issues of other ppl, future babies blah blah blah. just a simple, did you ask them if they knew? Can you imagine how Jake's parents must have felt if they knew their son would grow up looking the same as in the ultrasound? Heh... Except Jack was born before ultrasound. Knot sure ifs it's a paying attention failz on yore part or just another random, cheap shot at my disability.... cuz I'm knot Jake. Still, funny in either case. Course, nobody is more aware ov my perdickament than me... knot nearly as strong as I used to be and I hurt everywhere and awll teh tyme. Still, it brings a smile to my fase to noes, that at close to twise yore age, at least I kin take oft my shirt and nobody asks when teh baby is due... Heh... although choosy is as old as me, which would make you almost 80. Still, age is just an overdeveloped growth porblem and knot an underdeveloped won, like a carnie. 70, 80 90... trying knot to keep count, though I due has a b-day cumming up. Still chossy, looks to be closer to 30? Knot quite sure... from memory I think only ewe, donny, me, INC and C4F are older than Chossy. He's in teh old half. When's yore b'day? Mine is fairly soon too.

That may have been the first time my mother had ever seen him without it. my dad shaved his and no one noticed for like 4 days. he was pissed. my dad shaved his beard back in the late 90s. Looked fucking weird. Brought it back in a year or so ago.
