most of us (pro-choice folks) are, actually.

And FWIW, to chime in a bit on cable/broadcast... WTF are the content
labels for?

why is it that a TVMA "rated" show on network (like Boston Legal or
CSI:Wenatchee), on after 10pm isn't allowed nudity (beyond the bottoms
on NYPD Blue) or profanity (the good words, you know, the one's your
kids already know)? MA means Mature Audiences does it not? The
argument that there could be children watching is specious because the
content labels were created to be a guide for "parents" so that they'd
know in advance an dusher the kiddies off to bed.

Maybe we could apply this logic to other industries. How about me
start making lighters that have huge day-glo warnings on them that
they could set stuff on fire, but when you click them, the only thing
that happens is you get a soft glow from a christmas light-type bulb.
Useless, but no one will be accidentally exposed to flame.
