What I learned:
1. babies used to wear a lot of make-up
2. the secret to life: a woman becomes impregenated when she is going to have a baby
3. blood floods out of my body in a steady stream
4. I shouldn't get emotionally upset or feel sorry for myself b/c it can bother other people
5. I might feel a "twinge" of pain
6. if I do, i should do excersices, but only under the supervison of a professional

Hahaha I love old info-movies like this!

Hysterical!! Thank you for sharing.

Random aside: is your forum name inspired by "No Pressure Over Cappuccino"?

That was pretty great, here's what I learned.

1. Women who get crabby during their period should get over it, it's not that bad.
2. Eggs are magically fertilized.
3. It's important for women to look good at all times, no excuses.

we could learn a lot from the 60's.

I would pay good money to have seen Walts face when the idea for this film was suggested to him!

Ooh! Very educational!

Besides the above items, I learned that the only thing a woman needs a man for is dancing. Apparently she doesn't even need one at her own wedding. I guess that is in line with the magically-appearing baby concept.

Oh, that and it's silly to do anything extreme like lifting large pieces of furniture with one hand. Don't do that.

Yes it is. Alanis was my first musical obsession. I still love her!

I learned from this that I can "grow short".

Really? I can GROW SHORT? Awesome.

I was looking at your name, and I kept singing "they throw opinions like rocks in riots" and then I remembered!

I love that album... and I love her.
