No word as to whether the courts have also reinstated her "human" status.

There have been so MANY times that I've just thought, "I LOVE this woman! I LOVE her writing!" ... so many times when I've cheered and laughed and cried ... and today I just want to say to you: I love you, Twisty Faster! I think you are brilliant! :)) Twisty,

Well, I'm not sure Mr Petroski knows the actual definition of satire; there's supposed to be a critique in there somewhere. You know, a point. There's no higher institution being held up to ridicule here, only women and their disrespected claims to bodily integrity and personal autonomy are mocked. That's not satire; that's posturing for shock value. I call bullshit. But as for the Swifitian thing, well, he was kind of a raging misogynist, too, so I'll grant you that. To be honest though, my favorite part is the willful ignorance embedded in a sentence like, "No self respecting man would rape." Yeah, where is that written? I'm willing to venture that most rapists respect THEMSELVES quite a bit. It's poor form to even waste words on such scum, but if you can't blame here, where can you? Swiftian satire?

That extract from Petroski's forced birthing article/piece/pile of crap (I knew I'd get it in the end), was the one that got me too. Entitled prick.
