I have wondered this myself

You know what I don’t get? Is the number of women who are extremely careful about what they eat, who spend small fortunes on organic, “chemical-free” Food and whatnot (as though all chemicals were bad — we’d sure look funny without H2O), but who don’t hesitate one-third of a second before pumping their bodies full of hormones.

It would seem to me that progressives love them their organic foods. And the ones that aren’t vegetarian get all hot and bothered over the idea of milk, chicken, and beef that haven’t been pumped full of various hormones. And yet, as the ladies at PWPL note, most of the women within that category think nothing but the best about pumping themselves full of hormones, ostensibly in the cause of being “liberated” (from what, exactly…the normal function of the female body?).

My wife has every right to rail against hormone-laden milk and meat products, because she isn’t on the pill. Anyone who likewise is not on the pill also retains that same right. People who willingly inject themselves with all manner of hormones with the intent to augment and offset the natural hormonal concentrations in their own body have no business whatsoever complaining about any sort of hormone content or biological modification in the food that they eat.
