Phyllis,
  Here is the paragraph from the article in Boston Globe Magazine  
yesterday.

This is the kind of article that is so biased and so flawed that I  
don't even know where to begin to respond in a 150 word letter to the  
editor. I throw up my hands and say it's not worth my time to try to  
refute it, I'd rather spend my time on something more fruitful. I  
will, however, be interested to see how the article comes up in my  
childbirth class tonight.
