Everybody on these boards talks a big game when it comes to this issue but NONE of them is actually trying to adopt a crack-baby, one with fetal alcohol syndrome, or an slightly older child displaying mental health issues.

Everybody’s gotta do what they can do.

Did you study ventriloquism or is talking out of your ass a natural talent?

Thank you. Our best friends spent years trying to adopt, and when they *finally* got matched, the babies came too early and died. They’re now exploring assisted reproduction options because they just can’t have their hearts broken again, and there’s less uncertainty/risk in that process. I get so fucking steamed when…

What on earth are you talking about? Give me literally any evidence of any drugging, boozing or short term relationship hopping. Kim pretty famously doesn’t drink much and also, quite famously, has long term relationships with high profile men. I can see adoption being an issue because of the fame, display aspect for…

The point is that adoption forces you to make a life-changing decision in no time with little information, some of it concerning. And if you have other children, as I do and as the subjects of the article do, it is very difficult to know which known risks you want to take, which is why it’s so tempting to do high-tech…

Adopting isn’t just like the stork dropping a homeless infant off at your doorstep so you can smother it with love, you know. There’s a lot more to it than that. People who go to great lengths to have bio-kids aren’t just self-centered shitbags that want to create something in their own image. They might be realistic…

Because they don’t want to. The right to choose extends past abortion, people! Don’t worry about other women’s wombs or eggs (in this case).

It boggles my little brain that people would want three kids these days but I know the super rich don’t face the same realities the rest of us do, i.e EXPENSE. or the worries about childcare and working, again an expense issue for the 99%. And as a person who has never wanted kids, there is that too. It sounds…

So what did you mean? Explain it to me. You say that until today you didn’t know they had been caught and then added that this has always seemed ‘a bit off’ to you. What’s the point of saying that unless you STILL think it’s fishy? People don’t legally admit to crimes that will put them in jail forever and write…

I get that this is the Kardashians and all, but the perpetrators have been caught, and according to this, admitted their guilt, so suggesting that it all seems ‘a bit off’ is just perpetuating the long history of doubting women who have been assaulted. Just today I saw someone else doubting a woman’s story about being…

“How much I’ve been moved and touched to see you in tears.”

He might as well have sent her this: 

It’s amazing what rich men can get away with as long as they keep up the appearance of a ‘gentleman’ and put out some vague comments about ‘respecting women’ every now and then. Actions speak louder than words.

If literally any other man did this, would we applaud him for being an ‘icon’?

THIS. He took objectification of women to the next level, in a society where that was already the accepted norm.

I will never understand this dude’s popularity with women. The man basically kept a creepy babe-zoo in his house and only supported ‘women’s empowerment’ as long as it fit his idea of women being naked and not being ~prudes~ about it. If literally any other man did this, would we applaud him for being an ‘icon’?

My favorite question to forced-breeders when they wail about “fetal pain” is, “Since you care so much about fetal pain, what are you doing to outlaw vaginal birth, since that’s also painful for everyone involved?”

silly rabbit, women aren’t people.

If only they cared a fraction as much about the known (non-theoretical) pain they seek to inflict on actual (non-fetal) people.
