Pregnancy Advice and Ableism
“You shouldn’t drink/smoke while pregnant because it can cause birth defects and disabilities” Okay?? Why are we so scared of having disabled children? Just another classic example of ableism, eugenics, and policing what women do with their bodies. :/
A screenshot of a social-media post over a leafy outdoor background criticizes warnings about drinking or smoking during pregnancy. The punchline is the sarcastic claim that concern about birth defects reflects ableism, eugenics, and attempts to control women’s bodies, making it a reaction to controversial or offensive opinions about disability and pregnancy.
