Midwifery is often associated with homeopathic hippie bullshit
but it's also a legitimate medical profession
It's unfortunate that it gets wrapped up in all the hippie dippie holistic craziness, because there's a pile of legit reasons to avoid a hospital for a healthy mother and a low-risk birth. Also, people who want to breastfeed immediately or not have their children taken from them immediately after birth have few options in a hospital unless there's a husband willing to raise hell.
Seems like paranoia but then we had that thing where Texas was saving heel-stick blood (fucking barbaric in the first place) from infants to build a law-enforcement DNA database the parents had never consented to. Imagine my simultaneous rage and trollface when I found out it was happening, and none of my kids were subjected to it.
do your kids have something to HIDE, you paranoid white supremacist gun nut christian!?

hey, to be fair for the last 30ish years at least the banner of "if you're innocent you have nothing to fear" has been very firmly held by the conservatives in the US.

Who the hell knows what sort of sensible behavior your godanmned nanny state will criminalize before they're grown.
my super hippie/naturalist/anti-vaxxer friend laura did something like this i think. she paid for what was basically a nice apartment for a few days and it includes a midwife. and you just sort of go there with a few family members and friends and have your private space outside of a hospital.
It actually turns out that this is legitimately better for most births.
Lower rate of institutional infections and less stress on the mother.
As long as it's a board-certified nurse-midwife attending the delivery... the midwife can identity irregularities that require the attention of an OB in a hospital.
she was also super in love with me and named her son after me without talking to me o.oi
I remember you telling us about this lady.
I didn't mean to imply that she's not nuts. Everything you've said about her indicates she's nuts.
every person who doesn't like an acquired taste always seems to think everyone who likes it is faking it. it should be an official fallacy.

We're hoping to develop a blood test for Republican.
It will make it easier to round people up for the camps.

it was a really cheap lunch
and a very expensive dinner
my friend insisted on treating me to dinner at a fancy place for helping him find a job, and not just for a short period of time, but putting up with his laziness and smoking too much weed for like a year and insisting he keep looking and helping with the whole thing, i guess he thought i deserved it, though i felt a bit guilty, but he picked the place and all
and it was really fucking good
actually thats the most expensive meal i've ever eaten ever

The eternal fallacy of that argument: I'm not the one that gets to decide that I'm innocent.

That was really swell of him. It's nice when you help people get their shit together and they say THANK YOU.
my dinner yesterday cost 42x as much as my lunch today
but i wasn't paying
I love when that happens.
Like, Le Cirque for Dinner, PB&J + banana for lunch the next day.
$175.00 dinner
$1.75 lunch
If I make a PB&J at the cafeteria during breakfast time it costs $0.60. (It's charged as 2 slices toast, winning!)
A $25 dinner sounds reasonable.
Yeah, I was highballing the price of my sandwich as that whole meal is probably under a dollar, and I hate thinking my lunch the next day cost 200x less than my dinner the night before.
And I way paying for two (the meal actually cost twice that amount), and this didn't count the really nice bottle of wine.
That was the $550-600 dollar meal that I got so much shit for on these forums.

Yup. Access to proper clean facilities, trained personal and access to emergency car if need be is what is required. Midwifes are perfectly fine for most births. But being able to get to a doctor in case of complications. Also the birthing facility needs to be sterile including all instruments used. That is really important.
CNMs are fine. Direct-entry Midwives need to have their practices ended.

this is terrible, but
may i recommend bulimia

I'm a really really terrible Catholic but I'd still put Catholic down in the little box when it comes to it
You are cutting people out of your search for no goddamn reason
I don't have a gag reflex. It took me several hours and lots of water to throw up when I had horrible food poisoning.
This September, we're getting the band back together!
Sorry but I can smell church on people.
Even if they haven't gone.

is this a trick statement
because even with a 2 dollar hotdog and a dollar bottle of water
that's an expensive dinner o.o
I can only assume that means you put ketchup on it.
ME3 later, brobox bros!

This is a legit game rich people play.

I don't think that's unreasonable as it may inform how you spend your time, your money, how you raise your kids
so if you're a hardcore athiest, doing the same seems fine to me

Buddhism doesn't even make me blink.
Culture clashes aren't always fun when naughty bits are involved.
My point is that what someone puts down in the religion box may not at all be indicative of their actual beliefs
