Speaking of women and IQ....apparently women need entire marketing campaigns to warn them not to drink during pregnancy. Supposedly pregnant women in general must be stupid....FAS couldn't possibly have anything to do with chemical dependence on alcohol during pregnancy which is a separate issue entirely....and also won't be helped by simply telling people not to do it. If men could carry babies, there'd be no posters and campaigns telling them not to drink because men are considered capable of making their own autonomous choices in life. Whereas women supposedly need entire ad campaigns in order to care for their growing fetuses. Low to moderate drinking does not actually cause FAS or FAE. High levels of alcohol do.

One of my grad school profs said she was rebuked by a stranger in a bar during her pregnancy. She was actually sipping orange juice at the time out with a few friends who wanted to watch a football match on the big screen....but a noble citizen shouted at her and told her she was going to produce a brain-damaged child. Charming.
