It is pure evolution in action: when we do not use certain functions of our physiology, the “message” to our always-changing body-mind system — a message that becomes passed down to future generations through changes in DNA expression — is, “That function is no longer needed.” What function are we talking about? All of them that are associated with natural birth, and a woman’s body going into labor on her own.
Women Are Losing the Capacity to Give Birth
It’s being used as a noun to describe the message oxytocin “teaches” our body :a lesson, especially one concerning what is right or prudent, that can be derived from a story, a piece of information, or an experience.

No the word is certainly being used to cause an emotional reaction in the reader. If the writer was being factual he or she would say oxytocin strengthens or produces contractions during labor. It teaches nothing because it's a chemical and nothing more. But the writer said "moral". She or he is not objective so they've lost my interest.Anonymous 1 wrote: ↑Tue Oct 22, 2019 1:33 pmIt’s being used as a noun to describe the message oxytocin “teaches” our body :a lesson, especially one concerning what is right or prudent, that can be derived from a story, a piece of information, or an experience.
It does actually teach our bodies how to respond to future situations and alters our genetics to favor the response.Pjmm wrote: ↑Tue Oct 22, 2019 1:40 pmNo the word is certainly being used to cause an emotional reaction in the reader.

Those genetics get passed on to offspring and those offspring are more likely to react the same way.
This fertile myrtle never had a problem getting pregnant or giving birth. I just needed the doctor to catch the babyAnonymous 1 wrote: ↑Tue Oct 22, 2019 1:25 pm https://www.mothering.com/articles/wome ... ive-birth/

So, we should just let women and babies die from childbirth, so they won't pass on their faulty genes...
No. The article specifically states that while there are medical emergencies related to childbirth where medical intervention is needed, we should stop using pitocin as a labor starter when it is not medically needed.Olioxenfree wrote: ↑Tue Oct 22, 2019 1:54 pm So, we should just let women and babies die from childbirth, so they won't pass on their faulty genes...

Where did you get your medical degree?

Or were you suggesting that I needed a medical degree to discuss the article?
