Seriously, what is wrong with American men? How are they generally so terrible?

Probably that human nature was generally good.

Last I checked, whole thing was on YouTube.

When I was working with a midwife we left the umbilical chord and placenta just hanging for 10 minutes or so. You’re supposed to leave it until it stops pulsating because antibodies or something, I don’t have studies on hand or anything but there’s really no rush to cut it.

I like your line of questioning. This isn’t something that I talk about very much, but I am an ethnically white woman who was raised in a Latin American country by Latinas. My Spanish is slightly better than my English. All of my culture is Latino. But when I behave normally here in the States, people accuse me of…
