Article on Maternal Cannibalism in Fairy Tales.

Probably something for dawkins_hammer, but I'm putting it here because, well. Why not?

Now that i look at the url referenced in my last post, I think that I'd expect a totally different subject matter under a URL titled "Child Recipe." Peel them and cut them into cubes indeed.

It brings to mind the work of Bruno Bettelheim, and the prevalence of mothers eating babies in Fairy Tales. Freudians come down on the side of it all being an extension of the Vagina Dentata.

But don't take my word for it... I'm sure I can find a nice dissertation about it somewhere on the web ... Let me see, ah!

patty_puke I saw this usericon made by mimisoliel, and thought you might like it. It is okay to use it as long as you give props.
