TRENTON, N.J. (AP) — New Jersey is drawing the line when it comes to bikini waxing.
The state Cosmetology and Hairstyling Board is moving toward a ban on genital waxing altogether after two women reported being injured.
Both women were hospitalized for infections following so-called "Brazilian" waxes.
The legislative debate taking place now over "Brazilian waxing" a method of removing hair from the genitalia is a opportunity to show the hypocrisy of the stated reasons that are at the foundation of so-called abortion rights. (1) The "health" reason given is two reported infections out of tens of thousands of these procedures. If this standard were applied to surgical abortion, that procedure would be banned on those grounds. (2) What does this say about "choice"? In New Jersey which does not require parental consent, any pregnant child can obtain an abortion. That's advocated on the basis of choice, but an adult woman cannot choose to have hair removed. Is this giving rights to pubic hair that unborn children do not have?
