Quit retching and reflect for a moment on the stupid fundies’ embrace of this pornographic joke. That should quell the outrage right away! It did for me!”

No, because I don’t give a toss about the fundies, not in this case anyway. What bothers me is that a woman’s body is being used in this way. Are we not supposed to give a shit becasue it’s Britney Spears? We all hate *her*, right? It’s like being back at school, we laugh at the woman and the guy who used her gets a great big slap on the back. What a hoot.

Just wondering-are pro-lifers really jumping on this porn for the cause?

(raising hand) – Me. Both my labors started that way. I know other women who swear by it as a way to either start or move along labor. I thought it was from a combination of contractions from orgasm (however gotten to) and some hormone in jism. Also nipple stimulation (self, midwife, or partner) can help w/ distracting from pain and keeping labor going.

When I first saw the picture (it was posted on bagnewsnotes), I thought it was a sculpture of some anonymous pregnant woman getting ready for sex from the back, or else woman swaying hips or doing the recommended “cat arch” for back labor (but with the rug???).

I did not have painless labors, I am a big fan of “gas and air” (mixture of nitrous oxide and oxygen), but some women I have met really *enjoy* laboring and birthing and even do so by themselves.

I don’t like the sculptor’s political agenda, and he certainly did not get the position very accurately, and I *hate* the bearskin thing, but besides that, it’s a nice change from depictions of women as suffering the “curse of Eve” in birth.

And it’s probably a minority of men who’d survive long enough to get it up if they came near any woman in labour.

Then I saw in the paper this morning that the statue really is of Brittney Spears Giving Birth and I am SO having problems with being part of the reality-based community. I mean, really. How can there be snark when reality is inherently so much snarkier.

I must suffocate myself in the nearest bearskin Brittney rug. Really.

Apparently a good hard rogering will start things right up if you’re having a hard time getting into gear. There was some stuff about orgasms causing contractions and semen making the cervix dilate and what-not — I’m just trying to imagine the at-term woman who’d really be in the mood for sex…

The guy’s a prick.

Let’s see a picture of him naked on a bearskin rug with his bottom facing skywards. Then I might have a good laugh.
