Sooooo 2012. Honestly, where have you been?

I think that's pretty cool.

Join the dark side.

When I was born my mother took the placenta home and then kept it frozen until I was about four when we planted a rose on top of it. I think that was a nice use of the placenta but I guess I've been raised by a pair of hippies.

I love articles like this. I said to my husband, "Hey, some lady was running a placenta smoothie business." He stopped folding his pants, and I could see his brain flat line for several seconds.

The same rich hippies that knit with Noro and raise their own heritage chickens? I think they'd be the exact people to buy a Vitamix JUST FOR the placenta blending and DIY the eff out of it.

Repeated late term abortions. Duh.

No, they aren't. Doulas provide support roles for the laboring mother and do not deliver babies. While there may be unlicensed midwives in Oregon there are also plenty of certified nurse midwives who are highly regulated and have many years of medical education.

Rich hippies. Why do the work yourself if you don't have to?

Baby-killing doulas? Back to your bridge.

Or?

Motivated enough to consume your own placenta, yet too lazy to make it oneself. I have a hard time picturing the intersection of this particular Venn diagram.

The costume porn in this is going to be crazy.

As I have said elsewhere, I watched this mostly out of boredom. I get most of my CW angst from other shows (not to mention I'm utterly sick of zombies) so I wasn't entirely interested in piling on more, but I was very surprised. It wasn't perfect, but I ended up enjoying it. There are some weak links in the cast and…

Thank you so much for your help, perfect explanation <3

I mean, I also know cis women who don't identify as anything other than cis women who think it would be nice to have a retractable penis for the purpose of sex (and peeing!). But I don't think it necessarily has to mean anything other than the fact that we're more varied than our biology allows us to be.

Trans without the asterisk is usually meant to indicate trans men and trans women, i.e. those who simply identify within binary gender the way cis people do, while trans* is meant to include the larger transgender umbrella that includes people who don't necessarily identify within binary gender, i.e. genderqueer…

My husband (who loves breasts, including mine) would be horrified to hear it, but I have contemplated and dabbled in binding myself since I was 14. I am a heterosexual cis woman who has never been comfortable with my breasts, which are somewhat large for my petite frame. My versions have included layered sports bras…

It's really interesting how some people mean it when they say they'll love you no matter what, while others bolt at the smallest sign of complications.

Yes I agree strongly with you on this one but for different reasons. I was diagnosed with a young-onset incurable disease and it upended my life in literally every way. Thankfully my husband has stepped up to advocate for me in ways I would never have expected him to have to do until old age. But it does make me…
