  • I don’t know if I would exactly discount the whole thing. It’s certainly gotten better understood but I don’t know if it’s gotten any easier. The birth of our first child, which had some serious complications was an eye opener for sure, and I’m definitely witness to how badly the whole thing can wreck a woman’s body. Your anecdote about the church wife isn’t really appropriate here. There are certainly women who are just damn good, for whatever reason, at giving birth to children. Kind of a hidden talent, and more the exception than the rule.

    I’m just not sure if it all equals an entire adulthood of back breaking labor, or how much that even applies to today’s men. Things have changed, obviously.

    Define “fury”. I feel like I’m being relatively conversational, we just disagree on something. I’m not calling you slurs, or making assumptions of your character. I’m simply responding to people who are responding to me at this point, with a few minor exceptions.

    If I were to make any kind of judgement it would be that a lot of you don’t really know how this is supposed to work. For too many, and maybe you included, discourse in social media means you have to completely agree with something, or else remain silent. You’ve been swatting at trolls so long you don’t know the difference. This has the unfortunate side effect of creating echo chambers, and these little praise parties.

    Edit: actually, overlooking my comment to you, maybe I was 😬 oops. I’m probably getting a little swept up in this too – anyway, you still stopped, the same as I did. Should I be obligated to say something nice about the content, or nothing at all? So the conclusion is still the same.
