Say wut? Are you saying that, by ridiculing an attempt to compare insensitive doctors to sexual predators, I'm serving some kind of shadowy fifth column interests?

Poly IS a conservative stronghold.

He's saying that by criticizing women's rights, you are implying something similar to those criticizing affirmative action.

Who's criticizing women's rights? I'm criticizing an idiotic misnomer that has the potential to trivialize sexual assault.

Apolyton is a lot more conservative than it used to be, mostly because there are no commies posting. When people like Asher and Imran represent 'the Left', the center of the discussion is a bit on the right side.

Asher and Imran... sounds like a bad Jew-Muslim buddy comedy.

Everyone should be paid a minimum wage by the fed, abolish other discriminatory forms of welfare! Better now?

How many doctors or nurses actually want to make a mother giving birth feel like dirt?

[rowneigerie]

There's certainly room for improvement when it comes to birthing in hospitals. The process is designed for doctors' convenience, not that of the woman giving birth; for example, lying on her back is a lousy position to give birth from, since it means she's got to push the baby *up* out of her birth canal, against gravity. But the position gives doctors easy access, so that's what they do. And so on.

I'd contend that this suggests some women perceive it to be happening, regardless of whether or not it is. We should remember that women giving birth are not exactly in the right frame of mind most of the time, what with the stress and the fatigue and the hormones and such. So it's certainly possible that women could think the doctors are being *******s in some way when they're not.

Perfectly true, but surely the sensitivity of the procedure should suggest that doctors make their demeanour especially gentle?

[beepbeet]

I strongly approve of the label "birth rape" for those cases where the doctor jams his erect penis in "to try and lever the baby out." Most other cases, not so much. Those would be cases of "professional misconduct" or "malpractice."

Yawn rape? Wuzzat?

[moohassinny]

Being lazy, I'll just assume it involves the logistically problematic act of whipping it out and in while someone has his/her mouth open for a yawn. That's what it sounds like, anyway.

Presumptively by acrobats.

[Lillie_Steins]

Where's the fun in that?
