I am the same DS. I have a pretty good BS sensor, whether it is radical left or radical right. That's why I always test just a tad to the right of center. Problem is ... I used to test a tad bit to the left, but the center has changed over the years.

Extremely horrible article. Take one person and apply it to the entire right of politics. Take something out of context and apply it to the entire right of politics. If someone should read the above article, and truly believe that point by point speaks for the entire "right" and their political positions, then that person is very, very naive. There might be a 'little' truth in there, but the majority is crap. And it would be no different than me posting a Rush Limbaugh or Coulter article, one of their more extreme positions, and applying it to the entire left.
Let me ask you this, Wind.... Do you believe Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, Boxer... or worse, left wing pundits - do you think they are indicative of the majority of those who lean left politically?

For the entire species of humanity, DUH. unless you want us all to die out. This is like saying men have to be fathers. people have to work for food. Now, i know you don't HAVE to, but think of the pros!
food=life,
being a father=teaching a kid your morals and having someone to look up to you,
having a kid=having a kid! babies are awesome! plus you get all these benefits when your prego! people help you more, maternity leave, etc.
And i don't know about you, but this is for guys as well, do you honestly want to grow up to be an old man with no one who loves you? no children to care for you? no reason to live anymore, cause your spouse died off, and with them your entire family.
Now, i know you don't HAVE to have kids, and there's plenty of people who SHOULDN'T have kids, but it's stupid not to. What is the point of life without having a child to teach, nurture, and play with?
Besides, when you have a kid, you get to act like one, play with dolls, ride roller coasters, play hid n' seek, and blow stuff up!

Okay, in defense of the OP, it was that women are perceiving as having a duty to reproduce, that they're somehow a failure if they're not popping out babies. It was an incorrect view of women based off of a Huffington Post op-ed piece.
However, yes, kids are awesome. They are also a brilliant excuse to go back to Chuck E. Cheese.

If you examine Catholic doctrine on marriage, it does appear that having children is considered the reason to marry. Consider the Churches position on birth control.
Contraception is wrong because it’s a deliberate violation of the design God built into the human race, often referred to as "natural law." The natural law purpose of sex is procreation. The pleasure that sexual intercourse provides is an additional blessing from God, intended to offer the possibility of new life while strengthening the bond of intimacy, respect, and love between husband and wife. The loving environment this bond creates is the perfect setting for nurturing children.
But sexual pleasure within marriage becomes unnatural, and even harmful to the spouses, when it is used in a way that deliberately excludes the basic purpose of sex, which is procreation.
