I just wanted to let the commentor know why a particular word is starred out in my birthing post. I understand that the word is not dirty and that every woman has one. However, Homeschoolblogger automatically stars out any words that are se*ually explicit as to avoid the blogs coming up in google porn searches.

Sitemeter has an awesome feature that allows me to see what words people used in a search engine that got them to my site. You would be VERY surprised to know that one article I wrote on the HPV vaccine brought a few hits by people who were clearly searching for child pornography...just because I had the terms "11yo girl" and "s**" in the same artice. Disgusting.

So, if you see something starred out and you are wondering why I'm such a prude...its because its safer to do it this way.
