The Daily Mail has ofc always been passionately outspoken against misogyny in all its forms
If you’re having to carry your womb, I think you may have had a prolapse.
Probably a good idea to go to the doctors…
I mean, I’m about as in favour of inclusive language as it’s possible to be, but… Who thought “womb carriers” was a good choice?
Like, there’s a level of inclusive language that only stands out when you’re looking for it.
Then there’s a level that sounds a bit awkward but hardly worth even a raised eyebrow.
Then there’s stuff where you have to think “there has to be a better alternative”, because it sounds like something an AI came up with.
And then there’s shit like this, which just a linguistic and social tragedy, which never should have made it past “what about ____?”
Womb carriers. Fucking hell. What do they call “womb carriers” that have had a hysterectomy ?
