Currently holding my newborn as I type this. Up until a few months ago, this little human being was a frozen embryo.

Both of my children were IVF babies, and I'm about as left leaning as they come.

Also, we're not wealthy by any stretch. We ended up participating in a clinical trial that provided free IVF therapy (minus some misc costs).

I absolutely feel sorry for our fellow American citizens who are going through this horror, regardless of their political affiliation. Politicians are dealing in lives and livelihoods as if we average citizens mean nothing to them (spoiler alert, we don't).

You should look into expanding your worldview.

An interesting thought, but just to offer an alternative viewpoint: This is precisely the type of false logic and pseudoscientific justification that others would use to subjugate you & I.

People know what they are taught, and for the most part, quirks & oddities (and cilantro) aside, we're all mostly the same despite our skin color or where we come from, who we love, etc. We're just shaped differently by our respective environments.
