Why do we think a pregnancy is open season to discussing intimate, personal or medical details with people?

they're expecting their second child. Big non-congratulations to anyone who piled onto social media and google in the aftermath to try and find out if the couple had conceived via IVF.

Even setting aside the desperate insatiable need for any information about Meghan Markle, the obsession with women's wombs and their ability to rapidly become public discourse is as disappointing as it is inevitable. Why when a woman announces that they're pregnant is it open season? In this case it's the speculation about whether Meghan and Harry had IVF - perhaps because of her age and our outdated notions around women's fertility, perhaps because there were stories over the summer that suggested it was an option.

There are lots of reasons it's so great we've become more open in our discussion of fertility issues and IVF - but this openness doesn't mean it's ok to ask women whether she used fertility treatments.
