Not as good as doing your own dissection, but a million times better than an anatomy book is visiting a plastination exhibit:

- ProllyInfamous 2y agoI attended the Bodies Exhibit c. 2007/8, which was a bunch of deceased Chinese prisoners preserved without consent... but it was still really cool. Models of circulatory systems with plastesizers and then all other flesh removed — incredible and complex and unique-to-each-human. 2008/9 I did anatomy prosections and had an absolute blast, but ultimately did not become licensed.
- salad-tycoon 2y agoYes, a bit uncomfortable to consider the ones they have plasticized into sexual acts into eternity and the pregnant woman and fetus (and there’s a lot of intrigue into that poor lady and baby). But ultimately, the non-consensual advancement of understanding of our bodies is a deep, dark, tragic rabbit hole that goes from antiquity up to… this very moment. Don’t know what to do with the information I have discovered in the end but a good reminder to pause and reflect occasionally with the hope that we may not enable whatever the next “great idea, damn the costs” is.
- fragmede 2y agoIt's even more uncomfortable to realize that there will still be non-consensuality to our advancement from our current point.
