Thought #1: Um, having been raised by hippies (wolves), I didn't know people dyed their hair while pregnant. Chemicals.
Thought #2: Actually, after a little bit of thought - but truthfully, not until then - I am put off by this piece. Like a new mom doesn't have enough to think about or the cut is so awful.
Thought #3: Besides making new moms feel bad... Don't know how to put this... I feel like there's less and less space for children. I know so many 20- and 30-year olds with a distaste for, yet a marked unfamiliarity with, children. Like they simply will not be friends with anyone with children because they don't like children, what they imagine about children. It's a phenomenon different from that of not being able to relate or get time with peers with children. It's all about the 'yuckiness' of children period. Like they're 'other.' I find this so odd. We were all once children and no one is ever other to himself. It's seems like a psychotic break to me... Of course, children aren't for everyone; but I feel terribly outnumbered...
