OMG to the 'Pregnant People are their belly' thing. I KNOW! I'm SO glad someone else saw this and was creeped out by it! I saw the same article earlier this week, and thought the author was creepier than Target - at least Target objectifies everyone who they think they can shill a product to. That's the nature of advertising. Amanda was talking earlier this week about how frustrating it was when pregnant to have everyone address her as basically an appendage of the baby, as inextricably connected to the baby. Pregnancy in our culture brings along with it an implied reduction of selfhood.
