Perusing some of the older submissions I came across this. At first I thought it was just some weird polymer head with a goofy grin and funny eyes.
Then I read the description and choked on my water then spit it all over my computer.
Someone owes me a clean computer.
Heed the warning, people. Heed!
From the listing…
This is a strong mama & not for the timid. She is crowning in a deep squat, known to be an optimal position for birth, utilizing both gravity and a wide open pelvis to bring her baby strongly into the world. She refuses to be drugged, cut open, or forced onto her back in a pose of subservience. She takes charge of her birth & she’s doing it HER WAY. She is as anatomically detailed as I could manage, complete with labia, nipples & clitoral hood.
Holy feminist Batman!
Guess that makes me a push over man servant. Ah well. Can’t win ‘em all, can we? No sense in getting my labia all bunched up.
I will not make her less detailed.
How’s that for standards!?
Thanks Carolyn!

o.O Well, I’m frightened for the day. Awesome. Also, I really wish there were a way to make a bug-eyed emoticon with the bigger eye twitching.

Well, shit. Apparently I went about childbirth wrong. I was able to deliver with my head intact.

Well no freaking wonder it took me over 24 hours and 3 hours of pushing for each of my kids…..I was in my “submissive” position. Those bastards!
If I would have just “popped a squat” I could have been home in an hour!

But … but … she doesn’t have a head.
Detailed, maybe, but missing some of the rather crucial ones now aren’t we?

It is great that the hood will not be sacrificed, but the head isn’t really necessary.

I looked and looked and looked, trying to figure out the craftastrophe before reading the description… but wow. Enlightenment is not pretty, y’all.

I think the head is where the crafter has their head- up the backside.

It looks like a headless Sheela – na – Gig

And it helps if I finish the comment.
I’ve never quite understood the point of the Sheelas anyway – I mean, what? Hi, the world is in my snatch? Noooooo. And maybe, seeing as I have no intentions of experiencing the joy of childbirth, I’ll never get it.
I think I’m OK with that.

Dude, after looking at the shop, this person has a weird obsession with the process of childbirth. Including a pendant showing a close-up of the baby crowning. Childbirth is beautiful, but not to wear as jewelry.
September 29th, 2009 at 8:52 pm
I don’t mind the missing head so much, but for all the detail in the girly bits it seems that there is a clitoral HOOD but no CLIT. I really don’t see the point of a wide-open pelvis if that crucial “detail” isn’t given its due. For use at a later time, of course.
September 29th, 2009 at 9:21 pm
Yeah, that warning still didn’t prepare me… Computers still run when there’s green tea in the keyboard, right?

In psychology, when a child draws a picture with that much attention to details of sexual anatomy while paying little attention to details on the rest of the body, it’s indicative of sexual abuse.
…Just sayin’.

…Heh, reads harsher after a few minutes. I was just implying that there is something distinctly unhealthy about focusing so much on just the boobs and belly and baby to the exclusion of the whole rest of the person.
September 29th, 2009 at 11:29 pm
Oh dear, I’m a terrible excuse for a woman apparently because I allowed myself to be drugged and cut open, while lying in a subservient position after the childbirth process began to take a bad turn…or maybe I just wanted my baby to live.
September 30th, 2009 at 6:19 am
Oh my science, and look at the names she has for the colour options you can have your pendant made in:
Red Hot, 2nd Chakra Orange, Spring Yellow, Love Green, Calm Blue, Powerful Purple, Meditative Pearl, Goddess Gold, Queenly Silver or Kali Black.
I have rarely seen so much New Age babble crammed into such a tiny space.
September 30th, 2009 at 9:15 am
with all that detail where is her head?
Oh, it popped off while deep squatting?
that’s really too bad.
September 30th, 2009 at 9:40 am
At first glance I thought this was a weird blue frog… then I read the description. This person is way too obsessed with childbirth.
WAAAAY too obsessed.
The headless bit is traditional for pagan goddess sculpture depictions. Dunno why…I think I’d want my deity to have all his/her parts in their proper place.
September 30th, 2009 at 12:07 pm
With such attention to detail, there ought to be a sweaty head.

Zoinks! I concur with Bean – what? Why did you make that? Dude – that’s something most people work really, really hard to forget. Like years of tequila therapy hard. Ouch.
And why is it blue?
