Just to cheer you up: these things do happen [rarely] along with damage and major stress to other joints and not only do women end up with crutches, splints, braces and so on but they are not allowed to take pain killers or alcohol. So it's not just the piles and the varicose veins and the constant heartburn.

Sometimes these women have other young children too. And yet I have read only recently posts from childless feminists complaining about having to cover while pregnant colleagues attend ante-natal clinics.
