Ok, so first off, let me say that I don't easily get squeemish or nausious. A lifetime of surfing the internet will do that to you. But the topic of this blog made me gag more than once, which is saying something. The lovely topic I'd like to discuss is of course, placenta eating!
Those of you who are fortunate enough to not have experianced childbirth probably don't know what a placenta is. Don't feel bad if you don't know, its not really something that they bring up in sex ed (or if they did bring it up, it must have been the day I was having unprotected anal sex in the bathroom with a random female partner).
In any case, thanks to the magic of wikipedia I bring you this quaint definition.
The placenta is a highly vascularized organ that connects the developing fetal tissues to the uterine wall, supplying the fetus with maternal nutrients, and allowing fetal waste to be disposed of via the maternal kidneys.
The placenta is often reffered to as the "afterbirth" because it generally is "birthed" aka pushed out 'jo vagina, after the baby. Thats all well and good, its deffinatly not pretty but neither are newborn babies. Mostly they tend to look like tadpoles, something else they failed to mention in sex-ed.
Ok so there isn't any nice way to say this other than, there are people who eat human placenta.
Here is a blog of a woman who decided that the first thing that she wanted to do after giving birth was to eat a piece of her own RAW PLACENTA!
Oh and there are even people who get together for placenta eating parties!
So I can't confirm its authenticity but if you just type "placenta eating" into google your going to get a lot more hits than you may care for.
Here's my take on the subject, if a baby was still-born, would you think its ok to eat it? No, obviously not. For one, that would make you a fuckin sadistic pyschopath, two its gross. But logically whats the difference between a dead baby, essentially a piece of meat, and a placenta?
Biologically the only difference (yes I know its a big difference but bare with me) is the configuration and variaty of cells. One is not more alive than the other. Im not proposing that we eat dead babies, i'm just trying to point out that eating placenta is cannabilism.
Somehow these people have come to the conclusion that cannabilism doesnt count if the meat in question squirted out of your vagina. It didn't come from thin air, the woman's body made it. That makes you a cannibal, am I the only one that gets this?
I wonder if these people would eat tumors removed from their bodies too?
To be perfectly clear, I'm not saying that these sick fucks should stop their little human excrament soirees but don't try to pass it off as natural or healthy. Maybe if you had no other source of meat and you were starving to death it would be reasonable to eat placenta, just like it would be reasonable to resort to cannabalism. But otherwise its a disgusting and unnessecary practice and expect people to say so.
