"With Crimson in triumph flashing/Mid the strains of victory/Poor Eli's hopes we are dashing/Into blue obscurity"It's on HuffPo, so it must be true: a Yale undergrad artificially inseminated herself, and then took abortifacient drugs in order to induce a miscarriage which she videotaped for an art project. I'm not much of a moralizer generally, but (again, if it's true; this thing has hoax written all over it) I would say that in a country where reproductive rights are a court order away from abolition, it probably doesn't help matters to trivialize abortion.
Thanks to Jorge for the link.
Update: Shockingly, it did in fact turn out to be a lie, to the surprise of credulous journalists everywhere. Yet I can't help but feel that I learned a lesson about "the ambiguity surrounding form and function of a woman's body" anyway.
