Not All Objectification Is Sexual: The Return of the Fetal Container

Posted on November 10, 2014 by Alison ReiheldNovember 10, 2014

PJW Note: This post originally appeared on October 28, 2013. Yet, as a recent Op-ed in The New York Times, “Pregnant, and No Civil Rights,” clearly demonstrates, the problems Reiheld addresses have only gotten worse. With over 2,000 hits in the past three days, her argument clearly resonates with many of us confronting in the current political climate in the U.S. I move to the top for the attention of any readers who missed it the first time around, or for any who would simply like to be refreshed with a clear argument undercutting so much recent pregnancy legislation.

Alicia Beltran is 28. As Erick Eckholm of The New York Times reports, Beltran was taken from her home in handcuffs, having honestly answered a prenatal visit question about addiction by mentioning her previous struggle with a pill addiction. Urine tests proved she was not using the pills, yet she was taken before a family court commissioner. She asked for a lawyer, was ignored, and was told that the court had already appointed a legal guardian for the fetus. Despite being in recovery, she was ordered to spend 78 days in a drug treatment center against her will. She lives in Wisconsin, one of four states with laws that give authorities the, well, authority to confine pregnant women for substance abuse on the grounds that they would otherwise harm the fetuses they carry. These states—Wisconsin, Minnesota, Oklahoma, and South Dakota—are part of a disturbing trend of state laws which treat women less as citizens with full legal and moral rights, and more as humanoid fetal containers for the course of the pregnancy.

“This is what happens when laws give officials the authority to treat fertilized eggs, embryos and fetuses as if they are already completely separate from the pregnant woman,” said Lynn M. Paltrow, executive director of National Advocates for Pregnant Women in New York, of Ms. Beltran’s arrest and confinement.

The Rise of Problem Drinking Among UK Women

Posted on November 10, 2014 by Jackie Leach ScullyNovember 10, 2014

I suspect that many of us will read this recent piece from The Guardian, “‘I didn’t feel drunk, not even tipsy’: The rise of female drink-drivers,” with a slightly nervous, guilty eye, mentally totting up where we stand in the drinking stakes and comparing ourselves with the awful warnings discussed. There’s nothing to be flippant about here: when it comes to drunk driving and to the health effects of chronic over-indulgence in alcohol, it is appropriate to stay serious.

But there several things I find difficult in reporting like this, and one of them is how gender is positioned. What is flagged as problematic in these stories (over and over again) is being too drunk to drive your kids to school. Quite where those without children are supposed to place themselves on this spectrum (too drunk to drive to the dry cleaners? to get to Pilates? to find your car in the first place?) is left open. At first, you should take generic sales viagra devensec.com generic under doctor’s supervision. Key ingredients in Vital M-40 capsules include asphaltum puniabiunum, white aresenicum sulphidum, pongamia tadalafil free shipping glabra, withania somnifera, Balsamodendron Mukul, Orchis Mascula, Caryophyllus Aromaticus, Onosma Bracteatum and Asparagus Adscendens. This is done with the help of levitra online Click Here medical and psychological therapies. Many bodybuilders purchase online cialis click over here Proviron since it is an orally administered drug, which is available in different doses 50mg, 100mg, 150mg and 200mg. The other main association that’s drawn is between women in senior and management positions (read: unnatural women) and their need to dive into a bottle to cope with the stresses of their jobs (and, possibly, having a family as well). All of which may be true, but the particular feature of problematic drinking among women that most strikes me is its solitariness. Women are far less likely than men to boast about the amount they drink, because it’s shameful, and this connects with a whole raft of other things about themselves of which women are only too well trained to be ashamed.

Keira Knightley Poses Topless in Act of Feminist Opposition to Photoshopped Female Bodies

Posted on November 7, 2014 by Patrick J. WelshNovember 10, 2014

Once again, I’m not entire sure how I feel about this. Good for her, I suppose — though I remain skeptical about how much this actually advances a meaningful feminist body-image agenda. Still, considering the “enhancements” in the promotional shot below, I can’t say I don’t sympathize.

Yet the use of this drug has been limited partly because of its expensive price. cialis online overnight Also, to avoid the side-effects, don’t professional viagra take more than 1 dose of this remedy within 24 hours.

You can read more about it at Time. Or you can find the photoshoot and (in an interesting reversal) an interview by Knightley of the photographer, Patrick Demarchelier, at Interview Magazine.

UPDATE: For a contextualization of Knightley’s decision in terms of other bare breasts in recent media, read on here, at The Guardian, where Jessica Valenti declares 2014 “the year women reclaimed our breasts.” (Most amusing instance, albeit also evidence that Valenti’s declaration is decidedly premature, is the report on billboards featuring a large pair of naked breasts causing over 500 car crashes in Moscow.) Some of the other evidence she cites, however, is substantive and indicates progress.

“Rape Is Not a Data Problem: The tech sector has tackled sexual violence like it tackles laundry delivery, and entirely missed the point”

Another nice piece at The Atlantic.
