"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?

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.

Not sure about linguists (or lingusts), but the others are, I think. Although there might be hard and soft science?

...I don't think I should answer that one. DH sometimes reads this board.

My sister is *not* a scientist. I accept that some anthropologists are, but she sure isn't.

I had a long argument with someone who tried to convince me that I was a scientist, because I had a computer science degree and worked in IT, but I really couldn't convince her I wasn't. I guess I just have some expectations of science work (up to and including experiments) that maybe aren't valid. Having science as a background to what you do doesn't automatically make you a scientist, in my book. Not all doctors or nurses, for instance, are scientists, despite science driving what they do.

I have a Bachelor of Science in Accounting. Never considered for a moment that I was a scientist.
