Now, I am not a huge fan of pigeons...
BUT
on my recent trip to Hamtramck, MI my friends told me about a lovely plan the city has to reduce the pigeon population.
Say it loud, say it proud.
FORCED
PIGEON
CONTRACEPTION
Yes, the little darlin's will be pecking away at birdseed laced with aviary ortho-trycyclin. Yummy.
And their not the first ones to try it.
And why would I blog about this on my sex question blog??
Because, dear reader, as much as the feathered rats with wings are the bane of many a city park, once a pigeon gets dosed, there's no stopping it from heading up the food chain.
AKA, dead pigeon becomes cat food, cat pees in yard, Down came the rain and washed the pee into the ground...out came the sun....and soon COULD we all could be using contraceptive without even knowing it?
What would the Catholics say then?
I wonder if Margret Atwood was thinking about pigeon contraception when she wrote The Handmaid's Tale?
And who are we to encourage contraception in BIRDS, but tell young women that it's immoral to use it themselves??
Just a thought...
