Oink oink oink oink.
Honestly, most of the time y'all men are in pretty good shape because no one ever asks to stick a camera up your dress to take a picture of you when you are definitely at your best - giving birth. Videocameras in birthing rooms are the stupidest idea anyone ever came up with.
But let me tell you how I REALLY feel about this. :-)
As for you, Maggie, I can tell that you REALLY care about how the other person is feeling, just by your comment. Kinda like the pot calling the kettle black, isn't it? That is beyond a gross generalization, so I'll break it down for you easily. Some people ARE self centered. Some people ARE male. Therefore, there are some self centered males out there. However, there are some self centered females out there too. Welcome to the real world, please leave your coat at the door.
When the stirrup is on the other foot !
Thats so d@mn funny =D
My mum offered to take pictures of both my son and daughters heads during childbirth!!!! What fruit loop would allow anyone to video their lady bits?!!! child birth or not, its not normal and i'm pretty sure people have choices as to whether they have cameras in the room with them!!!
On the other hand, i noticed that i was surrounded by 13 med students as i gave birth to my son and 11 months later i was surrounded by 9 students as my daughter made her grand entrance!!! I wasn't even slightly embarrassed and actually had a charming conversation with a young asian girl who held my hand while i delivered! Child birth can be pretty harrowing for men too....
Am I the only one who notices that when guys started gettin the finger q year at 40 the whole scientific community was ascramble to come up with a blood test.... but women are still sticken thier legs in the air after 100 years...
I think you are just marvy! 8`-)
Where is the Testogram machine?
Ok, regarding cameras in the delivery: hell no! Who the hell wants to see that??? Unless it is for medical purposes, and is consented to in advance, why oh why? Eeeew ~shudder~ Makes me think of Epistomes and SitzBaths!
As for the guys being there... Yes and no. I agree that some guys need to be more responsible in this aspect, but then again, some chicks maybe need to be slightly more picky in who they let knock them up! I mean, if he doesn't look like he's going to be there to support you, having a baby isn't going to change that! Ladies: be picky when choosing a mate! Go for only high quality Dr.'s! :D
Still kinda bummed; nobody ever took my offer to shove a camera down my pants seriously... :(
Ok, regarding the ~ahem~ testing. Having worked in a clinic that specialized in reproductive organs, I can say beyond a doubt: pap smears suck. Mammograms suck. Then again, having some dude stick a finger up your butt while he fondles your testes and tries to make "small talk" isn't fun either. I agree, it is a sucky thing to go through. Then again, so is losing part of your body to cancer because it wasn't caught in time. I don't enjoy my yearly testing either (they have this one STD test where they shove a q-tip the size of my arm in... let's just say a very small hole), but I'd rather be safe and catch things early...
Did I miss anything? /end-minirant
Mott, you may empathise here.
When one has a caesarian section, the baby's head(only) is lifted out and the mouth and nose cleared. The baby's neck is flush with the mum's abdominal wall. I reckon it would be a fantastic picture. With all staff out of the frame, it would almost be akin to the alien coming out of the stomach at brekkie scene. Especially if the baby opened its mouth and cried.
Even after 26 hours of labour, this thought was going through my mind as my daughter was being cut out. All I could think was disappointment at not getting the once in a lifetime shot. Guess that makes me a bit of a photographer doesn't it?
"Yes, I had the 7:30 reservation with Mulva."
"Of course. Right this way, Mr. Hunt."
Guys that was sooo worth reading. made my evening....thanks!!!
Look at the positions of those 'styrups'
