Description
What is the deception? That birth is dangerous, risky, painful and terrifying. That birth in the American hospital is safe, quick and easy. That medical interference can "improve' the birth process with technology and drugs. That obstetricians know more about birth that women. That midwives are harmful to the birth process. That home birth is dangerous. That "natural birth" actually exists in the American hospital. That women in America have a choice in the method and place of birth. That modern woman can not give birth as naturally or matter-of-factly as her primitive sister, that she cannot endure pain, cannot overcome fear, cannot participate in the one process that has always been inherently and exclusively her own- the birth of her child.
