Not everyone, man or woman, likes or wants children. I live in the United States, which has the backwards notion that children are more important than the woman who has to carry it.

Your views aren't all that different than a lot of women. Go to most mommy blogs and they will expound on how motherhood is the end all be all of being a woman. Some will say you're not a real woman until you experience pregnancy and raising a child. They will call the childless incomplete and selfish. They will…
How about we collectively tell this tax-free billion dollar organization to go fuck itself?
Excuse me, but restitution for WHAT? The ad money they weren't going to be getting anyway because there was a PERFORMANCE going on? I feel like I have to be missing something....
I am a mama, and proud to be one. It's the best thing I've ever done in my life.
I have honestly not seen many articles that describe pregnancy or motherhood in that way. Certainly not "wrong" and "a waste of a woman's life and figure". Pregnancy and childbirth are, at times, disgusting. Ask people who have had that experience.
As long as we can agree that I'd rather have baby dolphins roaming around in my kitchen at night, we're good.
Why should it be celebrated? You do realize the crux of your argument is your personal feelings about how other people should feel about pregnancy and birth? YOU may feel like it is beautiful and wonderful. Other women may feel like it's gross and parasitic. Feminism is not championing one view over the other. You're…
Grow the fuck up. Pregnancy is a complicated biological process that is an incredible strain on the body. The more we know about how pregnancies work, the more science we have behind the process from fertilization to birth, the more we know about what and embryo is and does, the more people are going to be able to…
Not everyone wants to. Why is that so hard for some people to grasp?
I watched teen mom and pretty much every one of those girls goes on about how they never thought it was going to be so gross and so hard.
I think people who can be honest about the process like you're being, are courageous. I see things differently than Jess, I think making it seem like glitter and rainbows and…
This is one of the only places I can bitch about that stuff. I'm not for making babies, and I don't want to pretend to care constantly about baby everything. Sorry you don't like it, I'm sure you can get your baby love at some mommy blog.
"Children are wonderful and their way into this world is amazing..." you don't say?! Having given birth after being invaded by an alien for 9+ months, and having raised said ailen to adulthood, I feel more than qualified to offer an opinion in response to your comment. Children, no matter how much you love them, are…
This article is about embryos and tumors - neither of which are children. Stop projecting your issues on everyone else.
...the only mention of children and babies on this article is in your comment.
"A baby is a baby."
Ditto, to all of it. 34B, would like to be a little more of an hourglass and less of a pear, but I really don't have any complaints specifically about my breasts.
(34B, if it matters) and I've never actually encountered any weirdness about them. I don't get "Hey, nice tits!" hollered at me on the street (that honor goes to my ass, which is much larger), I never got teased in gym class or theatre dressing rooms, they don't give me back pain, and I can strap them down or push…
"Girl, take some of mine," is what I say when I hate my large breasts that have flopped down to my mid-stomach since the age of 15, enduring constant upward tugs at the front of my shirt from my mother, but I didn't realize it might be thought of as wanting to fix someone with small breasts. I really just hate my…
I was flat until my early 20's and I miss it! I never had to worry about wearing a bra, something looking "inappropriate", bathing suits making me feel exposed, boob spillage, etc. Sure they get some more attention from dudes now, but I don't think it was a deal breaker or anything like that before and I never had…
