my only “anti feminist” take is that yall need to be getting married before having kids. why risk your body and life for a man who won’t even legally commit to you? “it’s just a piece of paper” no it isn’t at all, you’re just uneducated

i don’t want kids but even if i did i would never have a child out of wedlock no exceptions. fatherhood is too optional to have kids outside of wedlock and i will die on that hill. purposely planning to have a kid outside of marriage is incredibly weird to me.

A lot of it comes down to the fact that a lot of people don’t use BC. The amount of girls in my life who got pregnant on accident because they were on ZERO bc!! Girls WRAP IT UP!!! GET ON BC!!! PLEASE

I was pregnant with my now husband when we were dating but we lost the baby. My birth control got sabotaged by a prescribed med, however I do agree with this. People shouldn’t TRY for a baby with people they don’t expect to be with forever

I agree with this take even though I’m no contact w my mom and close with my dad. So many men just expect children probably because they’re not the ones who have to deal with pregnancy and child birth. I’d want to be a dad too if I could. Men get so angry when they find out I don’t want kids because they only see women as a way to pass on their genes lmaaoo

just that they don’t want kids and don’t believe in marriage. but to your first point, I can never understand the “you can just get divorced” like ?? sure. but planning a wedding takes so much time and money, so long to genuinely reflect on if you really want to commit to each other. divorce is harder than the guy just running off. so ?? just get married. it legally protects you in many ways

this is off topic but your comment reminded me. I had an ex tell me he wants 6 kids and I was like why would I ruin my body and put my life at risk 6 times. and I was telling him like I want a career, I can’t have a career and care for 6 kids and be pregnant for basically 6 years. and he was like “we can get a nanny” and I was like “why would I birth 6 kids just for someone else to raise them.” and then I said again how it’s putting my life at risk 6 times and he said “stop making excuses.”

lol I assume his plan was to get someone young bc they’re “more fertile” (even though around 30s is tne healthiest time for the mother to give birth) and so he could try and trick me into thinking having 6 kids was better than having my own life. I can’t imagine why no woman his age wanted him 🙄

yea ig the other exception imo is when you don’t have a romantic relationship with your coparent and therefore don’t want to be married. you can make up a contract for that situation without the issues of your spouse being able to make medical decisions on your behalf.
