Y’all know I find out about shit eons after the fact, but I just got wind of how the “21 w no kids” trend is apparently triggering tf out of mothers who react defensively/respond negatively to it? And the way childfree women are unpacking the projections for them, is deadly but necessary 🫣.
“As a woman, do not have kids if you’re not prepared to be a single mother—“
This is grossly counterproductive advice too tho, guys. Esp when you consider how the simplest, easiest way to guarantee you are never out here doing any of it alone as a mother — is to never take a chance on having children itfp. Literally nothing will absolutely 100% spare you from the woes, endless sacrifices and one-sidedness of motherhood or single motherhood (that plenty and increasing quantities of mothers have voiced resentment over) — than if you’re incredibly intentional about not becoming a mother whatsoever. Protect and prioritize yourself that much, yes.
How about push choice? Push being more conscious on this as a woman. Push sexual education on women’s health and wellness (among both men and women). Push divestment from family members in your life that personally shame you for being childfree as a woman who doesn’t want or is on the fence about having children. Push being able to recognize when you’re being coerced into having babies (*concerning even partners that can apply or exacerbate that pressure). Push women to just say no and stand on sexual boundaries for their peace of mind and sense of self in the face of opposition. Fuck desire and baby fever and societal expectations and celebrities and wtf your parents want or your religious affiliation are y’all serious?? With the actual world going to complete shit?? How do yall just reach and reach and reach for reasons to bring children into this world for your own gratification that ultimately makes life so much harder for you; that make you resent so much in the long run? Choose your fucking SELVES, then!! Tf?
Be wiser women, for wiser women, is what it comes down to. Stop blaming it on men (ffs I’m so tired of how normal that’s become even as a woman myself); stop blaming it on society and lack of government this or that for mothers; take personal accountability for who you allow access to your womb, as well as who comes out of it. And stop, please STOOOOP being so willing as women to do literally just about any damn thing to keep or obtain a man. Moms (not all of them, but definitely enough) be coming up w some think pieces fr. It’s always, “My autonomy was usurped and pillaged and ripped from me by men or society or gender conformism!!” — and I’m sorry but that’s getting p cringe at this rate. We have to be smarter as women. Stop, taking, these, types, of chances. Especially such large ones. This is not an era to be taking chances in at tf all. Cus I hate to say it this way, but it seems like it be “fuck men” until they literally fuck you👀 — then it’s just the world hates women and wants us to fail and struggle at all costs and just be breeders with no autonomy. And I struggle to make sense of it so much in 2025. I know it can happen to anyone. It can literally happen to anyone; I do get that. But you can control that. You can.
I insist women need to come to terms w this. Even as a child I saw where women made the same mistakes 20 years ago that they’re still making or normalizing today. It’s not super different. Stop having children. It is no longer practical (and probably hasn’t ever been). All you need to do is take a look around you as to why this is not the day and age. There are 8 billion of us here and counting, bc of what most ppl do w their own and other people’s genitals. It’s not fucking rocket science, man.
[TL;DR] “Have a kid if you’re 100% sure you can do it as a single mom,” could easily be some p damaging and backwards advice imo tho. Like I’m baffled that some women say this at all as opposed to just outright being real about how we need to be so much smarter and wiser with our sexual health and how we reproduce in general as women. It’s always a defense for sex and having children but never anything brutally honest about how women should stand 1,000x firmer on having sexual boundaries and standards on reproduction. This ain’t an ideal era to have children or be a single mom in, whether you’re “confident” in your ability to be a sole provider or not🫣be fr yall gotta stop gassing bad choices veiled as girl power. Cringe af. Do what yall want w your own lives/bodies but stop giving other women (esp young ones) bad advice like this.
Not to dunk on men bc I stand 10 toes down on it being fuck the whole human species, but I do have some passion to express on this. At least declining birth rates mean an extensive and steady further decline of the existence of the worst kinds of men in the world going forward. Bc what’s always puzzled me about how the shittiest kinds of men are fathers closer to 100% of the time, is the concept of someone actually giving them pussy 🫠 like who in tf let you climb on top of them and make you feel like you could be remarkable or inspirational to a child? To anyone? Who is responsible for your access to vaginas and wombs in the first place, my guy?? Cus they need to stop that immediately. Who’s taking that chance on you?? Oop 👀
I say all that to say let men it applies to die straight tf out. Make ‘em sweat cus I love it 😭 Make them die angry, ladies. Make them die absolutely bothered by it lmao 🤘🏽🙂↕️ Fuck this place; y’all made it suck. If you’re a man being denied pussy in 2025, maybe it’s cus your soulmate is actually another man idk. I’m batting for women depriving you losers of this particular gratification to your deaths tho. Off w their fucking heads, babes.
If somehow I am perhaps cursed to be born human again through the whims or recklessness of other humans beings, and I come back here and this shit is still constant work, expectational conformism and endless sacrifice — I’m more apt to delete myself the next go-around. Deadass. And i genuinely hope it doesn’t come to that (mainly bc im the kind of moron who believes in reincarnation). This is not fun tho; all over the world. It’s gone to absolute shite. Please stop subjecting people to existence. This never had to be this hard. Live your own lives. But stop bringing others into it as carelessly as too many (billions) of you do. We’re paying for it so bad these days…
Welp. I’ve become an antinatalist within the past few years and not for the wrong reasons. I think this is the wisest I’ve ever been tho, for what that’s worth. Life is umm…….. hard. And human suffering is pretty…… preventable. We should definitely exercise being more considerate with how we reproduce. Esp nowadays. Kinda done patting ppl on the back for being good parents tho. That’s the v least you can be anymore w the bar set so low; so you might as well be amazing at it. You absolutely owe that to people you bring into this life. And props to good parents anyhow. I’m just saying this shit is trash✌🏽
this was meant for valentines but im late. oh well. i think larcin and octo deceive inc should perhaps stop stealing each others intel and start stealing intel FOR each other.
