The Royal Wedding

Now here is something that has got me going.  I'm sure many of you watched the festivities of Friday 29th April.  No doubt it is now Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge's duty to get pregnant as soon as possible, in order to provide the Royal family with a successor to William.  As history shows, royal women have been used a beautiful breeding accessory for their men and in many cases woe betide if they fail.....regardless of who is to 'blame' e.g. Anne Boleyn.  I wonder if she had to go through various tests? In fact in some royal households e.g. Swaziland, where the King has 11 wives, a woman who is to be married into the royal house is only a consort until she conceives, and then they marry.  The Shah of Iran even had to divorce his wife Soraya due to her inability to conceive and she even had to go through the torment of a public address. Wow, there are even jobs out there that are out of bounds if you are infertile...lol.
On the bright side though, being a state paid breeder in this royal context is no different to being on benefits except one doesn't buy their jewelry from George at Asda!
