This is a 10-week gravid uterus, Zoey Thill said, holding up a "pregnant" papaya the size of a large fist. And this, she added, gesturing to her own pregnant belly, is a 38-week gravid uterus.
Thill, a New York City-based abortion provider, was explaining the anatomy of the uterus to a group of about a dozen of us, in Verso Books Brooklyn office on a Monday night. The narrow part of the papaya, where the stem would be, is like the cervix, she said. The broader portion of the papaya is like the upper area of the uterus known as the fundusand it's that part we would want to avoid puncturing with our tools when, in just a few minutes, we would practice performing an aspiration abortion on our own papayas.
But if we did by accident, that was OK, Thill said. Were not going to shame perforators, she reassured.
Thill brought us to a long table across the room, where several Hawaiian papayas were lined up on surgical pads. After telling us about the tools that were laid outplus the ones she didnt have with her, the speculum and tenaculumThill demonstrated a first-trimester abortion on the papaya shed displayed earlier. She talked to the patient throughout, checking in on how they were doing as she inserted a finger into the cervix, then pantomimed inserting the speculum; she pretended to apply the local anesthetic and then began inserting the metal tapered rods on the table one by one to dilate the opening.

I don’t recall reading so much depravity in one day in a while.
What the HELL is going on out there?!?!
Have no clue
You can do an abortion on a papaya all you want to. We do not care about that.
Savagery. Expect more of it.
So...smoothies afterward? (sometimes it hurts so much you have to laugh)
I’ve thought at moments in my life that I was demented. :)
I may be, but not in a CRUEL way.
These are monsters.
Kill the baby ! Demoncats are pure evil.
Abortion is the sacrament of the Modern Church of Liberalism.
Seriously, abortion activists have actually literally called abortion a blessing and a sacrament
And it is. For others it is the ultimate act of moral depravity.
Everybody know that there are just WAY too many papayas out there!
As a nod to Margaret Sanger: a lot of them are dark skinned ones, as well.
The papaya trees are contributing to climate change by sucking carbon dioxide from the air
And do you know how many seeds just one of those buggers produces??? (They probably breed like rabbits)
If you perforate the uterus the mom hemorrhages or gets peritonitis.
And they forgot the part to check for all the tiny baby body parts.
“Seriously, abortion activists have actually literally called abortion a blessing and a sacrament”
To moloch.
[Wiki] [Quote] Moloch is the biblical name of a Canaanite god associated with child sacrifice. The name of this deity is also sometimes spelled Molech, Milcom, or Malcam. [Unquote]
They should have made it more realistic and stuffed the papayas with live kittens.
Do you lose points if your kitten falls out of the papaya early and you just have to smash its head?
Lemme guess, both were just a blob of cells so had no rights.
She's prolife now, and has been for most of her adult life.
Part of her conversion to prolife was this: she told her professor that abortions gave her a troubled feelings. The professor said they all had unsettled feelings at first. BUT, he said, it helped to kind of fool yourself emotionally about what you were doing.
Just think that the fetuses are pieces of meat. And the woman are animals.
That's what got to her. She thought, "If you have to dehumanize everyone --- the "fetus," the pregnant woman, and even yourself --- uh-uh, whoa, this can't be right.
