Feminism is Always bad for Women

Natasha Pearlman is a super-important jet-set magazine editor type.

She's also 8 months pregnant and upset that men won't give up their seat for her:
One of the benefits women have accomplished through feminism is the ability to be treated equally, despite the fact that we’re growing a human inside of us. I hate the idea my physical ‘condition’ could ever be perceived as a hindrance.
But:
However, much as I would like to deny it, there does come a stage at which biology intervenes — and other people’s common courtesy should kick in. While my brain is functioning just as well as it did pre-pregnancy, thank you very much, there are some realities I can’t ignore.

I wouldn't have given Natasha my seat either.

There's a lot more 'I', 'me', and 'my' in that piece becuase of course there is.*

Natasha had a choice. She could have stayed home. Instead she works, 8-10 hours a day most likely, all while severely pregnant. Well, Natasha made her choice and expects men to adapt to her.

You wanted equality, you got it.

*That's why we like to use 'we'. Stole that from James Taranto.
