Female Erasure in the Birth World & Risks of Assisted Reproductive Technology with Isabella Malbin
Listen now
Description
Isabella Malbin, the host of the “Whose Body Is It” podcast, is also a life-coach, hypnotist and former "liberal" feminist turned radical truth teller. Isabella shares what initially peaked her years ago; euphemistic, sanitized terms like “belly birth” in lieu of cesarean section is just one example. We hear why she was kicked out of her Fertility Awareness Training program and why her Doula training program found her vernacular rooted in truth and refusal to erase “women” and “mother” from her vocabulary to be a threat. Why none of us on this recording use pronouns. Isabella theorizes on the root cause of the uprising of female erasure in language amongst most birth workers. Why is “inclusive language” actually more harmful than innocuous? Isn’t there a seat for everyone at the table? We debate the question “just because you can do something, does it mean you should?” when it comes to ART (assisted reproductive technology). Why do some cultures justify surrogacy whereas others accept pregnancy may not be in the cards? Are guilt and shame actually healthy reactions to our choices instead of emotions we should aim to avoid?
