Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

You've come right out the other side of the forest of irony and ended up in the desert of wrong.

Thinking about it, you could argue that we have 2 days to celebrate.
1. The day of "Conception"
2. The day of "Birth"
I would put option 1 as more important, since it is the point from which everything begins.
I just suppose it's easier to remember option 2.
Working out option 1 might be tricky, since sperm can last in the body for 7 days, so the place of reproduction may not necessarily be the same place as fertilisation, which can occur some days afterwards.
Could be great new opportunity for Clinton Cards though.
"Happy Fertilisation Day !"
"So glad you came ! "
"You Survived Gestation ! Grats !"
"Yay ! You Avoided The Curtains This Time !"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive.
