Alien Impregnation in Science Fiction: The Mystical Pregnancy Trope
I recently shared this interesting video snippet at the TheoFantastique Facebook group page and thought it was worth including here. This piece was brought to my attention through Sociological Images in a piece titled “Pregnancy Porn: Alien Impregnation in Science Fiction.” The piece originally comes from Feminist Frequency: Conversations with Pop Culture. This feminist critique of aspects of speculative fiction brings another dimension to our consideration of science fiction and horror. For further exploration of this topic see Crystal Coleman’s “The Dangers of Mystical Pregnancy in Entertainment” at Persephone Magazine.
