It's a shame that the educational anatomical project has been stymied by what I suspect is blatant profiling!
Sure, knitting circles are notorious fronts for geriatric gangs of dangerous noisy rebels, but some circles are legit and shouldn't suffer due to stereotyping. IMO.
I mean, where's the proof that the Knitter Natters were 86d because they were engaged in boisterous shenanigans. Where?!
And, how are health care students and volunteers supposed to learn about anatomy without knitted visual aids (I mean, besides photos, books, anatomically correct plastic models, surgical observation....).
Anyway, rams, here are some pictures to help you understand the academic and societal significance of this story.
This is what ramsey's gall bladder used to look like before it got yanked :
(the same knitted model could probably double as an oversized sperm - efficient!)
This is a woolen replica of ramsey's womb:
This knitted replication shows the danger of the "pull out' form of birth control when ejaculation is uncontrolled. (Who knows how many unwanted pregnancies have been prevented by this life-like model?)
And, for women who wonder what it would be like to trade in their tired old vaginas for a penis and testicles, anatomically-correct knitted boxers can simulate the experience without the expense and permanence of an addadichtomy.
In short, the OP story matters on a lot of levels. So, STFU, ramsey!
