What Is "Birth Rape"? Thoughts???
A vulnerable woman, who is powerless to leave the situation, is at times held down against her will, has strangers looking & touching at private parts of her body, perhaps without appropriate measures being taken to acknowledge her ownership of her body or to preserve her comfort levels. Perhaps she has fingers or instruments inserted without her consent, and sometimes against her consent, invading and crossing decent boundaries. She is fearful of what is happening to her and perhaps for the wellbeing of her baby, and receives no reassurance that either she or her child are ok. That is a violation, no matter how you look at it. Even IF this treatment is given with no malice and the intent of attempting to assist her with birthing her child, there is NEVER a reason to forgo common decencies that will enable her to maintain a role in the birth, some autonomy over her body, to be involved in the decision-making, to be informed about what they want to do BEFORE they do it.

Ok I know it's bait but I'm gonna be baited.
You consented for a doctor to take care of you while you give birth. You sign agreements to allow them to do this for you. It is not rape.
If you don't want it just become Amish and do that shit at home with a bucket of warm water on the bear mattress you sleep on.

I don't think it's particularly accurate to put it in the category of rape, but I agree it's certainly all sorts of fucked up, some of the shit doctors pull in these situations
You're actually right OP. It's about time someone is brave enough to bring attention to this subject.
