The lamaze instructor for our first birth showed us a picture of a woman
moments before her baby was born.  An *awful* face, all screwed up and
grimacing, mouth open.  The whole room got very quiet.  Then she showed us a
picture of Bruce Jenner (remember him?) just as he won the decathlon.  Same
face.  Oh.  That put it in a whole new light.

(Michel Odent's "Birth Reborn" has similar pictures, pp 57 and 59 in the
new edition.)
