"So many men have no idea what women go through," Obama said.
(He may be right. And being a gay dude, who has never been pregnant he probably has less idea of what a woman goes through than most men who actually know more than what they let on … and BTW Mike, the ONLY REASON for a woman’s reproductive system is to produce life. That's why it's called a REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM. The reproductive system of a woman works in synchronicity with her other systems but the reproductive system is for that one purpose. His rant reminded me of what might have been lifted from a Kamala Harris speech.)
Former first lady Michelle Obama said that a woman’s unique ability to grow a human life inside her body is “the least of” what the reproductive system is for.
Obama, a prominent Democrat and supporter of abortion, discussed her thoughts during an episode of her “IMO with Michelle Obama & Craig Robinson” podcast on Wednesday.
The “Becoming” author said that the “frustrating thing” is that the issue “has been reduced to a question of choice, as if that’s all of what women’s health is.”
“Women’s reproductive health is about our life,” Obama added. “It’s about this whole complicated reproductive system that the least of what it does is produce life.”
She continued, “It’s a very important thing that it does, but you only produce life if the machine that’s producing it, you want to whittle us down to a machine, if the machine is functioning in a healthy, streamlined kind of way. But there is no discussion or apparent connection between the two.”
(That’s the most out of touch, unrealistic viewpoint on a woman’s reproductive system I’ve ever heard. I’m a man but obsessed as I was with understanding what I was dealing with, at an early age, I read everything I could understand about reproduction.)
