Lo Que Callamos Las Mujeres

I just got back from a walk to the park with the babies, and the channel happened to be on some spanish channel. I put the babies down for their nap and told John was about to go workout, but I got sucked into this show lol. I have retained a little spanish from high school, but its fairly obvious what's happening in this episode---an unwanted pregnancy, and a girl contemplating abortion. It's pretty interesting to watch a show in another language! I also had google translate out, so I could grab words here and there to make sure I know what's going on.. (i.e. "verguenza"--shame, "barbaridas"--lot, "embarazada"-- pregnant, "hijo"--son). I think I am gonna stay for the end or record it just to see what happens, but from the look of it, it seems to be cautioning women against it--although the girl's friend keeps trying to tell her it's safe and legal etc, but it looks like her cousin just died because of an abortion so she may have changed her mind. The episode is called "Madre, No Delincuente." (Mother, not criminal).


This would never have been written for any major American network shows. It would have ended with no regrets and happiness...okay really though, I gotta work out and stop watching telenovelas! enfarto!
