“The frequency of personal questions grows in direct proportion to your increasing girth. . . . No one would ask a man such a personally invasive question as Is your wife having natural childbirth or is she planning to be knocked out? But someone might ask that of you. No matter how much you wish for privacy, your pregnancy is a public event to which everyone feels invited.”
—Jean Marzollo (20th century)
“Certainly, words can be as abusive as any blow. . . . When a three-year-old yells, Youre so stupid! What a dummy! it doesnt carry the same weight as when a mother yells those words to a child. . . . Even if you dont physically abuse young children, you can still drive them nuts with your words.”
—Mary Kay Blakely (20th century)
