((Removed link)) <= The example from the Pygmy village is excellent and probably should be incorporated into the article somehow. If it doesn't get VfD'd. -- Antaeus Feldspar 16:10, 9 Mar 2005 (UTC)

  • The site earlier referenced by Antaeus Feldspar is now parked with porn ads on it, I've removed the link to save anyone else from the embarrassment. Link left as a comment in case it comes back Kiore (talk) 21:07, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Stork myth... should it be here?

In some places there is the popular myth that children are brought by the stork. Is this an example of a polite fiction? If so, then maybe it should be mentioned in the article as a well-known example. SpectrumDT (talk) 11:43, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
