I'll give Tony Danza a pass because he seemed to be commenting on the double standard, not criticizing the pregnancy per se.
It's good to have cargo. Makes us a target for every other scavenger out there, though, but sometimes that's fun too.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
but how is it a double standard?

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I do think the time they gave toy lambs to the kids at the opening of a lamb processing plant was in questionable taste.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
but how is it a double standard?
Yeah. I dont get it.
It's like, "msbelle, you don't like rhubarb so you can't possibly have a cat."
It doesn't make sense.

Maybe "hypocrisy" is the better word. Danza seemed to be saying that Cruise shouldn't be so eager to raise a big moral fuss about antidepressant medication if he's going to violate traditional moral values with premarital sex. IOW, it isn't the sex/pregnancy, it's Cruise's "I'm above the rules" attitude.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
IOW, it isn't the sex/pregnancy, it's Cruise's "I'm above the rules" attitude.
Does Scientology have a rule about premarital sex/kids, though?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That was my question, and it must really not.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
It doesn't make sense.
Here's how I make sense of it. Who has heard of Tony Danza's show? Nobody (or not me anyway). Who has heard that Tom & Katie are expecting? Everybody. So Tony comments on T&K, plugs his show to boot, and it gets published.
Makes perfect sense.

Fair point.
