It's good to know that the Washington Post thinks so highly of women that the best reason for them to be healthy is because they may someday bear children.
William Gillis, Radly Balko at the Agitator, and Echinde all protest the article better than I could. Also, see Echidne's later post.
As for the actual report... my take: healthy = good, but healthy solely for the purpose of bearing children = misguided and scary.
I wonder if you could found an anarchist commune on Mars.
