"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I'd probably be mildly envious of the women who actually manage to acheive orgasm during childbirth
what?
the things I learn from you people.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I have no doubt that it's physically possible, but the idea that giving birth only hurts because American women aren't close enough to the earth or whatever makes me roll my eyes and want to stab things.

Because books.

I have almost convinced myself to buy a "pack" of electronic cigarettes.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
"When the baby's coming down the birth canal, remember, it's going through the exact same positions as something going in, the penis going into the vagina, to cause an orgasm,"
What is the percentage of women who experience orgasms without clitoral stimulation, again?

It's not big, for sure.
(That's what she said.)

I think the more relevant question is, how does one become a board-certified OB-GYN without ever having seen a penis? (Just my lay opinion, but: penises and baby heads, not the same size or shape!)

I don't know what penises you've been looking at, Jessica!
Okay--definition of scientist--does it include a) anthropologists b) archaeologists c) lingusts?

Our wings are not tired.
I read the linky and saw there were bunches of lengthy comments. Jumping to the concise comment I found something I could agree with...
I had a baby. It hurt like hell.
I suppose this is what I deserve since I popped in here to distract myself from all the work I am supposed to be doing. Doing work, considering orgasmic childbirth, doing work, maybe I should give that work thing another try.

ita: all three are social scientists. Many archaeologists would also qualify as hard scientists, as would many anthropologists, depending on their subspecialty.
In fact, I don't think it's possible to be an archaeologist nowadays without a solid grounding in biological science and chemistry. There's just too much going on.
