Quick literary hive mind question:
What is the name of womb/birth symbolism? I know it has a name and can't remember it. Also, is there a name for the female version of "phallic" symbolism?
Like any of that's enough to fight the Dark Master. Bator.

There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

I don't know if it's the correct term; just that I've heard it before.

Looks like it googles well. Now to find the womb/birthing term.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
paisleys are symbolic of the womb. I know that's not what you're looking for but it's a fun fact I like to share often.

What a great bookstore! Now, they just have to get themselves featured on Ace of Cakes for some national TV recognition--maybe they can order a funky theme cake for an event?

Oh, the storefront has been on Ace of Cakes. And they've been on the Daily Show..
and for something else Waters-related...some news magazine program.
The most funny thing about that story for me is that it says their record label puts out Country music cds. er...not so much.
