Husband has bigger balls than me asking at that time, and I'm known to ask my wife this multiple times a day.
Asking your wife for anal while her vagina is actively being torn apart from the inside is definitely crazy.
I get that it's a crazy title but I read the article and it seems to be pretty well reasoned and makes some sense?
Kind of, but I hate seeing stuff like this:
I'm glad the author prefaces that saying that experts don't support unassisted births. Of course people have been having unassisted births for millennia with the majority being normal. But we used to have much higher infant mortality rates compared to what modern people would deem acceptable.
Personally, I'd have a dead baby and probably would be a widower if my wife hadn't given birth in a hospital.
Yeah, giving birth at home is one of the most dangerous activities a woman can undertake.
Except the part about the husband asking for sex when she was in active labor. That's pretty bonkers.
I mean yeah that is but it's also not the point of the article
The theory is there and it seems to make sense biomechanically, now we need more studies on women doing this during birth and see if it results in less labour, pain and/or interventions.
