      Dear Clarence Thomas, A fetus is not a child. If you wish to discuss medical care you need to use grown ass medical words. Dr. Jen Gunter.

      Dear Dr. Jen, To speak colloquially is not to speak incorrectly. A pregnant woman is "with child" and is "expecting a child" and the "child moves in her womb." On the other hand, to use bad language categorizes you neatly. Dr. Grazie Christie

      It is when you are dealing with medicolegal issues. Correct medicolegal terminology should be used, not quaint outdated terms one might use when speaking with a patient or layperson. Dr J Lawrence 🙄

      The word "fetus" has the effect of dehumanizing what is scientifically, and for some ethically, a human person in the earlier stage of development. Justice Thomas makes a moving claim for these young HUMANS, selected against for disability, female sex, and race, thru eugenic abx.

      Well, no, scientifically it is a fetus. Calling a single cell a human is based in back-dated religious dogma not useful reality.

      Indeed. Does she call an embryo or blastocyst a child?

          A little tiny human. #Science. Inconvenient, I know, because we do all sort of believe in treating humans respectfully. And this interferes with sexual liberation. But still, a human.

          A blastocyst is not a human - it has no brain, no heart, no capacity for self awareness or learning, no ability no feel pain, no memories nor the ability to lay down any. The idea you would strip rights from someone who has these things for something that doesn't is offensive.
