Another lovely post Emily. I regard being a woman as a privilege because of my ability to create new life, which is unique to mammalian females. And I think that breastfeeding our babies is the perfect example of melding motherhood and the material world. "The mystical territory mothers enter when breastfeeding is ancient. It is primal. It is experiential." https://lucyleader.substack.com/p/the-missing-piece
