OMG, the bloody tone of this article - "the surgery which would destroy her fertility"; "incredibly" her partner didn't mourn the loss, WTF?! Like it's the end of the bloody world if a woman doesn't give birth.

I have no problem with these women's choices, as they feel they're just following through to the fullest on their own beliefs. As much as I consider myself an envronmentalist as well, I do want to have children of my own one day, so of course I have no problem with other women doing so, but it sounds like these women don't have a problem with that either - I don't get the impression they're out crusading for everyone to stop breeding, they just don't want that for themselves, and that's just fine.
