100kg isn't a particularly large mass for an adult. Particularly not these days.And that's a pretty big birthing assistant!I didn't realize how tremendously different it was, though.
I mass ~100kg, and at 182cm tall, am not unhealthily overweight. If I get down to 90kg, I look and feel underweight.
BMI calculator says you're obese.
Allowing husbands to be present in the room when their wives give birth has a greater gravitational effect on a newborn than the Sun, Moon, or planets. I wonder if astrologers have taken this late twentieth century change in social...
Phrenology or craniology (from Ancient Greek φρήν (phrēn) 'mind' and λόγος (logos) 'knowledge') is a pseudoscience that involves the measurement of bumps on the skull to predict mental traits.[1][2] It is based on the concept that the brain is the organ of the mind, and that certain brain areas have localized, specific functions or modules.[3] It was said that the brain was composed of different muscles, so those that were used more often were bigger, resulting in the different skull shapes. This provided reasoning for the common presence of bumps on the skull in different locations. The brain "muscles" not being used as frequently remained small and were therefore not present on the exterior of the skull. Although both of those ideas have a basis in reality, phrenology generalizes beyond empirical knowledge in a way that departs from science.[1][4] The central phrenological notion that measuring the contour of the skull can predict personality traits is discredited by empirical research.[5] Developed by German physician Franz Joseph Gall in 1796,[6] the discipline was influential in the 19th century, especially from about 1810 until 1840. The principal British centre for phrenology was Edinburgh, where the Edinburgh Phrenological Society was established in 1820.
