Milk Drops
Short reflections from the quiet edge of biology and longing.
Where milk becomes metaphor, signal becomes story,
and the body remembers more than we admit.
Milk Drops are explorations of adult nursing relationships, lactation biology, intimacy science, and the cultural erasure of nurturing desire.
Each essay examines how milk—and the relationships it creates—challenges what we think we know about bodies, attachment, and grown-up love.
These are investigations, not instructions. They're written for people who want to understand intimacy more deeply, not just practice it differently.
