News Doula make you horny, baby?

Tonight the SisterSong Women of Color Reproductive Health Collective, a reproductive and sexual health rights activist group, hosts a film screening at Landmark of Orgasmic Birth, a documentary by "birth activist" Debra Pascali-Bonaro that asks the question, "What would happen if women were taught to enjoy birth rather than endure it?"
I might be a bit more open to the idea of having kids if it involved 36 hours of, ahem, "enjoyment." Of course that's not the only reason I'm not interested in giving birth, but the prospect of labor certainly doesn't help.
You can watch a clip on the film's website, but just so you know, it's probably not "work appropriate."
Movie starts at 7 p.m. and is followed by a discussion at 8:30 p.m. with local birth activist, Piper Lovemore, among others, about natural childbirth and midwifery.
