This isn't a common myth and was addressed in tr article:
"I’m very suspicious of anyone who implies that this goes back to the feeling of being in the womb,” she says. “I think that’s very far-fetched.”
- mrhappyunhappy 9y agoHuman behavior is part biologically programmed so to say that this is far fetched is to ignore evolution.
- aninhumer 9y agoThere's a difference between the argument that people have an evolved biological preference for warmth and pressure, and the argument that this is because it evokes conditions in the womb. Without elaboration, the latter sounds like Freudian psychobabble to me.
