I fully respect that medical treatment of women has historically been lacking, and at times horrific. Number of c-sections is actually a metric used to measure appropriateness of medical interventions for a reason, since if it's not necessary it's extremely invasive and a brutal recovery.

I feel for those who have had bad experiences. Midwives are absolutely amazing.

I am more concerned with those that refuse prenatal care and medical care for their children, when they are accessible, for their own comfort.
