Birth Classes
We started "Birth Class" last night, where we learned that for women to have a successful birth, their husbands should give them daily massages.
There was some other useful information there too. Like, if you want to write a science fiction novel where men are able to give birth, not only do you have to provide them with a uterus, but you would also either have to have them give birth by C-section or provide them with a new pelvis.
All of which suggests to me that certain science fictions should remain ... fictions.
We also learned that 10cm is really much smaller than it should be.

Curious that the story about the massage should still be around. They were telling the same thing way back when Kathy and I went through our first childbirth class. Could it have anything to do with the fact that these classes are all taught by women? I wonder what a male teacher would make up?
As far as the 1 cm. Every journey begins with the first step. Only 9 to go.
