Birthing Videos 101
Tuesday, October 23, 2007
DG has distinctive memories of watching graphic birthing videos in high school, with full on frontal crotch shots, hairy 70s women, and big bloody afterbirths spilling out onto the floor. I remember getting lectured on the human reproductive system and stern talks on using condoms on unpeeled bananas. South Dakota vs. Connecticut sex education. I'm thinking DGs class was trying to scare him into abstinence.
We watched our first birth video in class on Monday night. Even though it was soft core, the whole room squirmed and I let out a huge guffaw when the first woman gave birth to what looked like a 3 year old child. *ouch*
I need to go work on my breathing techniques now.

Why is it that all guys seem to have seen this video sometime during their adolescence, and yet no girls have seen it, even those who are now pregnant?!?!? Todd too has horrid memories of being forced to watch such a thing in approximately 5th grade. All I remember about sex ed was watching a cartoon video about flowers blooming & wearing tampons. And I thought that once you got your period, you had it every day for the rest of your life! I dreaded it!!!!
