There was no way to explain to this stranger how my mental illness had just gifted me with a magical moment. I realized it would have sounded a bit crazy, but that made sense. After all, I was a bit crazy. And I didn‘t even have to pretend to be good at it. I was a damn #natural.” #QuotsySep21

This book was so helpful to me when I was pregnant with my second child. My first birth was full of medical trauma; my second birth was beautiful and healing. ❤️

This man managed to figure out that men aren‘t compassionate when they need to be, which was refreshing to hear from a man writing originally in the 1930s. I liked his take on labour and delivery, saying were never meant to be a negative experience. He explained the physiology of labour very well. In that, I believe his claims hold some merit. He has certainly give us something to think about. 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

GingerAntics The good points end there. This is a man who cannot fathom anyone truly not believing in the Christian god. Somehow he believes that an atheist just isn‘t compatible with motherhood. I have a feeling many atheist and agnostic mothers would have a few arguments against that claim. Despite believing that men have a compassion issue, he also believes the height of being a female is being a mother. 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻 5y
GingerAntics All of chapter 2 was completely insufferable. It was his manifesto on womanhood and I almost stopped reading there. 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻 5y
GingerAntics What made me stop reading this book was the absolutely ridiculous belief that things which we have discovered are entirely hormonal and out of anyone‘s control are pathological. I get that this book was written in a time when that was scientific theory, but this is an updated version from 2013. Update the science. For a book claiming to be pure logic, it‘s full of myth, bigotry, and BS. 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻 5y

GingerAntics Yes, this does give the reader something to think about, but honestly, just read a few excerpts and move on. The rest is male chauvinism and total rubbish. I have tested his theory on perception and expectation of pain on other things like Charlie Horses and it genuinely works. It‘s actually pretty interesting. Still, that‘s not worth the rest of this book. You honestly couldn‘t pay me to finish this book. (edited) 5y
Oldschool_millenial *opens litsy* *sees that cover first thing* Well that's a bold photo... great!--Oh written by a religious dude in the thirties and our reader bailed... NEVERMIND 5y
GingerAntics @Oldschool_millenial lol Love your reaction. It is a bold photo. lol I‘m not sure I‘d call him a religious dude. He was a scientist and never mentioned any sort of religious affiliation. He‘s English so I‘d guess he was CofE. I think that was just the mentality of the time. I think some people would still call childbirth a spiritual experience, but they wouldn‘t insist it was uniquely Christian. He‘s hard to explain it would seem. lol 5y
Chrissyreadit His name is what had me LOL. 5y
Crazeedi Omg, I looked at this and thought I really dont want to remember this! Lol 5y
GingerAntics @Chrissyreadit his name is great, isn‘t it? I get that probably wasn‘t a slang term back then, but it goes get a chuckle, doesn‘t it? 5y
GingerAntics @Crazeedi the picture really is an attention getter, isn‘t it? lol 5y

As if I wasn‘t already feeling like this book was written by a man from the 50s who has no really understanding of women, this comes along. Ah yes, those overly emotional women are causing all sorts of trouble for themselves and we really must be in the look out for the damage they are doing themselves. 🙄🙄🙄

GingerAntics I know this was originally from the 30‘s, but Jesus Christ this U.S. an updated version that hasn‘t updated its science. We knew this was BS in 2013 when this edition was released. I‘m not sure I can do this book anymore. FFS 5y
GingerAntics #GrantlyDickRead #ChildbirthWithoutFear #childbirth #wtf #bs Why say you‘re all about science, but never update the science?! WTF?! 5y
