#because I feel like a capable practical athosian woman like her would have torren strapped to her chest while she goes about her day

Someone who grew up in a culture like Teyla’s would likely have a very efficient and well-known method for carrying infants and keeping your hands free.

#stargate atlantis #teyla emmagan #she specifically states in one episode that athosian women often remain very active during pregnancy #and we can assume that would continue into early childhood for mom #they’re agricultural and seem to have no cultural distinction of gender #in so much as it looks like everyone works to their capacity and men and women seem to do the same jobs #because even if mom is resting it wouldn’t surprise me if it child rearing was one of those communal things for them #so new babies get passed around between adults so everyone can get stuff done #and mom can recover and rest and be able to take a shower when she needs to #so teyla carrying torren everywhere like she does annoys me #because I feel like a capable practical athosian woman like her would have torren strapped to her chest while she goes about her day
