The uterus expands to just under the lungs during pregnancy. It should be possible for some madman (and madwoman) to cause the cervix to dilate and just keep on stretching the uterus until it's long enough.

It does so over multiple months. It is very averse to so spontaneously, as every OB/GYN might tell you. Always causes stressful situations in the OR.
(Beside...the cervix is more or less a one way device. That would surely make it rupture. )
Didn't knew about the cervix being one way. Good to know.
Well, just to be clear, that is meant for mechanical things..
Fluids,not so much. For obvious reasons.
It's a hell of a lot of work to actually dilate it.

It was still Twitter then.
Me: It's a drawing, it doesn't have to conform to reality.
But if we don’t let twitter users whinge about obviously exaggerated and satirical drawings, how will they feel superior to everyone else??
It's not a satirical drawing, it's an erotic fantasy one, otherwise yeah.
It's both.
I scrolled past this eye catching tummy while at salon LMAO
nsfw?
This is what the internet is for.
Old but gold, very early internet energy but from just a few years ago.
