What not being able to make a derogatary remark about a woman being pregnant?
We truely live in a police state.

it occurs to me
that my original post doesn't convey that I made that remark in jest.

my reasoning was this: There is not much more typical behaviour of a woman, particularly one recently married, than to bear a child.

Her being pregnant has no impact on me, or my work, and I'm pleased for her because as clients go she is one of the most pleasant.

I know it was in jest, I also don't think it's offensive,
I just didn't get how you went from that remark to the "I can't say what I think anymore???1!!"

Everyone has to self censor all the time, it's not a new thing, it's not about political correctness it's about trying to avoid conflict.

Beans are better for that sort of thing
Then you can find biofuel very easily. Provided you know the location of your arsehole, of course.
