[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The strand of midwifery that fetishizes "natural" childbirth is unscientific, anti-feminist quackery.[/quote] And I beg to differ. I think those theat medicalize childbirth, procedurize it, and make women feel like they are incompetent to handle it, are anti feminists. Making women feel powerless in doing something that women have done for millennia, and continue to do, without intervention is the problem. Hey, you want interventions... that’s your choice, but you should not be forced into them, either. [/quote] medical care is anti-feminist? [/quote] No, convincing women they cannot do it without medical care is anti feminist. Many women are terrified of the prospect of birth, and that does us a disservice. But I can already see from the responses, it’s medicalized birth all the way with this group. [/quote] You’re a horrible horrible person. [/quote]
