A major pro-life website is describing Miss Piggy as “pro-choice” and here’s why:

On June 3, Miss Piggy received the Elizabeth A. Sackler Center for Feminist Art’s First Award at the Brooklyn Museum and publicly announced, “Moi is a feminist!” In a follow-up interview airing June 6, MSNBC reporter Irin Carmon took the opportunity to ask Miss Piggy, “Are you pro-choice?” “I am pro – I am pro-everything,” Miss Piggy gushed. (And would she have answered the same to “Are you pro-life?” But feminist reporters don’t ask that…)

During the interview, they asked her many questions such as “What’s the definition of feminism to you?” and “Why not Ms. Piggy?” (Her answer to that last one, which isn’t in the video below, was “I’ve spent so much money marketing myself as Miss Piggy.”)

While this might seem insignificant, other recipients of the award have been Sandra Day O’Connor, Toni Morrison and Anita Hill. (Really, Anita Hill?? At least they’re improving on their choice of recipient.)

Would you interpret Miss Piggy’s statement as being pro-choice?

Watch the partial interview on page 2.
