I read the links, watched the video. Regarding the top two articles-- sure intercourse, reproduction and the human body are weird and funky but you can blame nature for that, not humans. and yes, PIV carries more risk to women than to men. Blame nature for that one as well. I'm just happy that nobody has to get pierced in the abdomen to reproduce or get their heads ripped off. When you look at the reproductive strategies of other animals, insects, etc, our system is the best of the worst. Also, regarding the other blog posts on "all piv is rape" -- that actually does a disservice to real rape victims in my opinion. If everything is rape, nothing is, so it's important to not muddy the waters and change definitions there. the reality is, some women are oriented to like male bodies, PIV sex, and that's their sexual orientation. Inequalities should be addressed of course, but placing a blanket "PIV=BAD" statement on what millions of women are oriented toward just seems way off base and lacks nuance.

Well there's some perspective for today! I guess it really could be way worse.

I think we should lay eggs, though. Small ones that we can leave under a heat lamp.

if we laid eggs they would probably have to be the size of a newborn or be able to grow as the fetus develops. it would be much more convenient though, i have definitely thought about that before lol

They should be born tiny and helpless with conveniently small skulls, and grow strong as we feed them a mixture of unicorn blood and snake venom for another few months.
