Woman Calls C-Section "Rape"

Here's a genius solution: Nurse midwife can help her give birth at home OR she can take her saggy butt to a different hospital instead of acting like a spoiled brat screaming for a toy.

Isn't the objective of delivery to have a healthy mother and child?


She needs to find another hospital. Then if she needs a section, she should be grateful that they were able to do it.

Too many women are today placing too much emphasis on the method rather than the outcome of delivery.

The issue is that there are, unfortunately, too many doctors that take advantage of women's trust in them. Telling them they 'need' c/sections when they really don't.

I don't see the comparison between a necessary c/s (say, for a complete previa) and rape. However, if there's no good indication for it, she doesn't want one, and she still gets one, then technically that can be considered a violation of her body. Any other surgery performed on someone unnecessarily and against their will can be considered assault/battery. The thing is, it's hard to prove, especially when the doctor has documented things like 'CPD' or 'fetal distress' that may or may not have actually existed, that a section was done unecessarily (though most places keep monitor strips for the record as well). But I think anyone who has been in OB long enough can tell you that it happens.
