Diaper Change #1 - Choice

A Note About Diaper Changes

A mother isn’t bothered by a messy diaper or a child covered in vomit. We clean them off, sometimes singing to them or tickling them along the way and then we send them off to play.

As such a mom, I’m treating each Vulgar Buzz Original (VBO) as a child with a dirty diaper. I’m not bothered much by its stench and refuse to ignore the child because it is smelly or in this case, uttering crass vulgarities under dire duress. By the way, VBOs are also known as WWMSU's (What Would Michelle Say in Utero?) to honor our often referenced and Darling Derry Girl.

The Dirty Diaper (VBO #1 aka WWMSU #1)

This wee lass is obviously upset about everyone ignoring the fact that she is also a human female with a body. She is calling into question the mantra touted by thoughtless females "My Body, My Choice" because they are ignoring certain less privileged bodies who cannot voice their choice. This sort of "I'm big and you're little and there's nothing you can do about it!" attitude is being protested in no uncertain terms.

The Clean Diaper (WWFFS #1)

It was pretty easy to find the image used by The Vulgar Buzz and then copy the style with InDesign to make the more civil language version above. It isn't important which image helps a person make a better choice, it only matters that the message hits home before it is too late for the most vulnerable humans in the world.
