Reproduction is a natural behaviour, and essential to our continued
existence. While is may or may not be seen as voluntary, so can extreme
obesity. There are a lot of people around who are just to fat to move
because they stuff themselves with food on a daily basis. We consider
them to be disabled and offer special parking, so I don't understand the
objection to offering the same to a person who is having physical
problems in relation to their bringing a new life into the world.
