Orgasmic Birth?

Here’s an interesting article about a professional mid-wife who is trying to promote the benefits of natural childbirth vs. C-sections and the use of drugs. She says that women can experience a type of "birth ecstasy" under the right circumstances.
Gaskin began her practice as one of about 250 hippies who pooled their money in 1971 to buy rural land south of Nashville to form a commune. Soon she and a few other women on The Farm were delivering 25 to 30 babies each month.
While training herself, Gaskin sought out doctors and other midwives and devoured medical texts. But she never sought a medical degree, instead helping to create an alternative certification so lay midwives could prove their competency.
Not all obstetricians think home births are inherently unsafe. New York obstetrician Heidi Rinehart spent a few weeks at The Farm while a medical student. Although her husband also is an obstetrician, when they were having a baby, they asked Gaskin to be their midwife.
But even doctors who’ve never heard of Gaskin have felt her influence because of patients who have read her books, seen her birth videos or heard her speak.
“They request or demand or vote with their feet to have the kind of birth they want,” Rinehart said.
Now, Gaskin has a film in the works that is in keeping with her anti-establishment, freewheeling nature.
“We’re doing a movie called вЂThe Orgasmic Birth,’ ” she said.
That’s not a metaphor. Gaskin says that under the right circumstances women experience a sort of birth ecstasy.
“I mean, it’s not a guarantee,” she said, shrugging her shoulders and smiling, “but it’s a possibility.
“It’s the only way I can think to market it to (this) generation.”
If women could really orgasm during childbirth, I think we’d be seeing a lot more babies being born.
Working On Your Man-Ass?

So I came across this article about a new pair of men’s designer underwear that is supposed to make your ass look fab-ulous! Check it out:
The issue of fancy men’s underwear is still threatening to undermine this great country. Andrew Christian
has unveiled his new, horrific men’s underwear with Flashback
Butt-Lifting and Contouring Technology. He promises that it "gives men
the illusion of having a sought-after "bubble butt" without having to
spend hours in the gym." Great John Wayne’s ghost, is a bubble butt now
sought-after among men?!? An actual quote from the designer,
who is suspected by me to be working with the terrorists:
"Surprisingly, I was actually inspired to create this technology while
at the gym and seeing how hard men work on exercising their buttocks. I
just knew that there had to be a way to achieve similar results by
simply wearing underwear." Good. God. After the jump, before and after
pictures of the new underwear technology at work. We beg you, do not be
seduced.
Maybe it’s the gym I go to, but I don’t think I’ve ever seen a man working on his ass. I didn’t even know bubble-butts were sought after by guys! Is this the male equivalent of the wonderbra, where as soon as you get it off it leads to nothing but disappointment?
Guys REALLY need to stop caring about designer fashion.
