Lol, there’s also a Gandalf quote.

I’ll share my personal situation in return. I’m not a parent, but I’d like to be someday. And indeed I feel very anxious about losing my free time etc. That’s why I’m taking this a bit personally, these childfree posts are not helping me at. all. 😅

Thanks for sharing your experience! I can 100% understand and share how you both feel. It’s unacceptable to pressure someone into making choices that aren’t theirs. Not having a child is a personal decision that is not up to debate and should be accepted without justification.

But that’s what I’m talking about. Child free content on social networks appears like an expression pride, joy or contentment, but feels to me more like an expression of hurt. Instead of celebrating what people love in their childfree lives, it always looks to be somehow addressed to parents to taunt them or revel.

Idk. Maybe it’s like pride parades. People being oppressed for who they are want to openly proclaim their identities because it makes them feel good and I’m overthinking it.

I’ve never understood childfree communities and posts. Is it because parents can’t shut up about their kids so you’re doing the same? Are your friends having children and you don’t like the change? Are you feeling pressure from family or society and rejecting it? Or shadenfreude for struggling parents?

I just can’t imagine it as something positive. It always looks like people are seething about something.

Makes me think of Outer Wilds!

This reinforces the myth that babies come from sperm. But babies come almost completely from the egg (cytoplasm, membrane, all of the organelles, as much genetic code than sperm, nutrients).

So guess what, you don’t have to imagine ovarian pregnancy because it’s real!

Edit: Happens even without fertilizarion with the teratoma. Yikes.
