Just stumbled on ma n’ pa operation I Heart Guts! and think it is just so cool. I could never really get into teddy bears, but plush snuggly livers and gallbladders? Now THAT is awesome.
My favourite of the bunch has to be the smiling uterus and fallopian tubes, which is unfortunately on a product recall right now since the eggs can pose a choking hazard for small children. I hope they start making them again soon though, because I would love to order one! (Also, I hope they make a stomach and intestine! And my partner chimes in that he would like a spleen!)
Although as a feminist and “modern woman” I feel that I am supposed to have some kind of enlightened relationship with my uterus, I would have to say that it has always been kind of adversarial. Damned uterus! Quit it with your cramping and your threats of fertility!! I’ve always joked that I wished I could just take out my uterus and keep it in a glass jar in case I wanted to one day use it. Maybe a cute, plush, happy smiling uterus that I can cuddle with will help me feel a little more friendly toward my own uterus and stop the cold war between us.
