C-sections affecting human evolution? The Gizmodo article barely goes far enough in debunking how bad the research was. College level evolutionary biology informs how ridiculous the claim is. Kat, it is really not worth while perpetuating the original story. There are many reasons to fear a c-section, but this is not one of them. Equal time is not appropriate when one side is so outlandishly stupid.

Kellyanne Conway says this is what she says to men: “I do politely mention to them that the question isn’t ‘Would you take the job?’ — the male sitting across from me who’s about to take a big role in the White House — but ‘Would you want your wife to?’ And you really see their entire visage change. It’s like, oh, no, they wouldn’t want their wife to take that job.”
Gross.
