| Perverted, disgusting, and incestuous | 2010-07-16 | 1 / 5 |
| This film was recently recommended to my husband and I as we look forward to the upcoming birth of our child, and as a result, we rented it through Netflix last week. We watched the film in its entirety, from beginning to end--hoping that we would receive some benefit from it. When it was over, we were both left with an overwhelming sense of disgust.
We are very much in favor of natural childbirth for low-risk mothers, but rather than being particularly educational or informative in a preparative way for natural childbirth, the film focuses on promoting the notion that birth, not only can, but should be a very sexual, sensual process, and that embracing sensuality during birth should be encouraged. Mothers and experts throughout the film communicate that women can and should experience sexual pleasure in feeling their baby's pass through their birth canal, and that if lucky, women can experience the most incredible, intense orgasms of their lives as they experience their baby's being born.
The ultimate implication of the message communicated throughout the film is essentially that women not only can, and do, but should "get off" on their own children as they are being born. My husband and I are both very shocked and disturbed, not only that this film was made, but that no one in the film seems to comprehend what it is they are actually suggesting. This film and its message are extremely perverted, disgusting, and incestuous.
If the message, itself, was not enough, the film, throughout, portrays several different naked mothers screaming with sexual, orgasmic pleasure as they orgasm to the birth of their children. The one woman towards the end who was rolling her eyes ridiculously and laughing in overwhelming sexual pleasure directly into the camera as she was giving birth was the worst. My husband and I were both struck by how obvious it was that this woman was completely exaggerating and putting on a show for the camera--she seriously had "porn star wannabe" written all over her. When she was being interviewed after the fact, she shamelessly boasted about having had two incredible, rolling orgasms during her child's birth.
If there are some women whose bodies naturally respond in an orgasm when they are giving birth, without them doing anything to encourage this reaction in their bodies, then obviously it is something that could not be helped, and does not mean they are trying to be perverted with their kids. Don't advertise it to the world though! Do you really think your mom, sister, best friend, and midwife need or want to hear you screaming "Yeah, yeah, yeah!!!!" in sexual pleasure right in front of them??? NO WAY!!! When a woman purposefully tries to promote sensuality and encourages herself to orgasm while her baby is passing through her birth canal, that is downright, and utterly sick.
Just because childbirth is part of the reproductive process, it does not follow that it has to be sexual. It is the childbirth part of the reproductive process, not the sexual part! The filmmakers of this documentary seemed to get this point very confused and mixed up.
If when I grew up, I learned that my mother had not only verbally announced to other people that she had experienced incredible sexual orgasms as she felt me pass out of her body, but if she had also allowed herself to be recorded in a publicly available film while naked, laughing and rolling her eyes in completely exaggerated sexual pleasure as I was being born, I would be absolutely disturbed and offended, and I would feel I had been violated in some strange way as an infant.
For a much more educational, informative, inspiring, and motivational film in support of natural childbirth, check out "The Business of Being Born" with Ricki Lake. That film was excellent, and it provided loads more useful and encouraging information. |
| Finally got my description of giving birth right! | 2010-07-16 | 5 / 5 |
| All I could tell people after the birth of my first baby in 1976 was that pushing him out felt like I "had died and gone to Heaven". I was re-born the day my son was and the woman I needed to be and had always been "in there" arrived. I went on to teach Lamaze Prepared Childbirth and continue to do so 34 years later because I could not keep this gift to myself. When I first heard the title, 'Orgasmic Birth" I knew exactly what the film-maker had done. She had dared to use the word that needs to get the attention of disbelievers that birth can put a woman in that very spot between heaven and earth that no words can begin to describe------------orgasm, absolutely.
Thanks Debra---oh, and Piper too!

| not impressed | 2010-07-07 | 3 / 5 |
| | I had high hopes for this DVD, but I was a bit disappointed. Maybe because I already knew much of the information presented. I watched this with my husband and was a bit uncomfortable with the couples shown, it was a strange concept. Also mothers I have spoken with have said they felt NOTHING like an orgasm when they gave birth. I liked "The Business of being born" much better. I feel like I paid too much for this. Orgasmic birth was a bit too far out there for my taste. |
| Very Informative | 2010-05-10 | 5 / 5 |
| | This video would be a great gift for anyone about to have a baby. It is educational, enlightening and inspiring. Tons of statistical information about the birthing business here in the US. Highly recommended. |
| great film! | 2010-03-01 | 5 / 5 |
| Don't let the title fool you! This is a fabulous film for prospective parents. The title, however, is misleading. It should have been called ecstatic birth. I think it's better than The Business of Being Born. It shows that birth can be a wonderful positive experience, while telling the truth about what birth is like for most women in the US.
I highly recommend buying this one for your library. |
