I was upset over this…I actually enjoyed the show (the plot is too crazy and filled with plot twists, it pokes fun at telenovelas blah blah).
The whole abortion thing irritates me because it’s really obvious that they are trying to make a statement…Xo didn’t want a baby because she wants her life to be ‘about her’. Then she stupidly hooked up with someone else and then aborts the baby. The whole ‘babies hold you back, abortion is no big deal’ thing really annoys me. There’s literally no reason for Xo to be pregnant in the first place… it hardly affects the plot.
But of course, to keep the love triangle going on, they had Michael shot on the wedding night and something might make them divorce so she can run to her baby daddy
I get that it’s a secular show and isn’t trying to promote the religion or attack it…but I’m getting tired of the messages the writers are desperately trying to put in to make SJWs happy
That’s sad. I only watched the first few episodes so I haven’t seen the new season. But this plot line strikes me as weird, considering she was told to get an abortion when she got pregnant with Jane at sixteen, but didn’t. You’d think she of all people would know that an unplanned pregnancy isn’t necessarily the end of the world.
