She’s referring to pregnancy in a time that didn’t know about sperm and eggs. How women became pregnant was a great mystery—hence all early fertility gods.shes not saying birth was easy, but that pregnancy seemed magical.

I grew up calling it pop—-but spent enough time in areas that derided me for my choice that I UNWITTINGLY SWITCHED and can’t get back to saying pop how I was raised. My dad says “cola.” I don’t know where that came from.

You may have put your fine get on why the nuts are working to criminalize and prosecute women who miscarry—they heard that medically it's still referred to as an abortion, so it must be WRONG

Um, so offensive. I'm purple-intolerant. I eat a primary diet.
