I'm from Canada and the USA :B It's more the phrase itself implies an expectancy that the norm in the US is thus the norm everywhere else where the 21st century is pretty much the emphasis of diverse norms and acceptances. | ||

I'd expect the US to be behind on these things tbh. Religion and marriage etc still being more relevant in the states than in (north west) EU.. | ||

Its mostly about the risk for genetic abnormalities (something like 5-10x as high vs someone below 30), miscarriage (more than doubled) and such. Tbh it will probably be fine, the absolute risk is still quite low, maybe 2-3% for chromosone problems in the baby. I'm sure they will take every precaution to make sure Jessica and the baby is healthy.  SC3 progamer hwaiting! | ||

That shit is NORMAL in the US." | ||
