womb

On-Yomi: タイ

Koohii stories:

1) [raulir] 28-4-2006(311): The body part feminists like to put on a pedestal is the womb, especially when they hear a man complain about some responsibility. "We give birth, so it's your duty to do so-and-so".

2) [Howdoken] 4-2-2008(184): If any body part deserves to be put on a pedestal, it is the womb from which new life springs forth.

3) [fuaburisu] 3-1-2007(60): In this kanji pedestal carries a sense of base, or stand. The womb is part of the body that acts as a pedestal: a base or stand from which a new human being is brought into life.

4) [mrred] 11-10-2008(22): Imagine the womb as a part of the body which contains a little pedestal (#744 台) for the baby to stand on. Picture the baby, like a little statue of a cherub, standing on its pedestal in the fleshy womb.

5) [DrJones] 23-12-2007(13): I suggest studing this kanji alongside with commence (#747 始). The womb is the part of the body with a mouth from which the matron took you out when you were born, using her elbow.
