Imgur's "I'm not a misogynist" rebuttal is "as long as it's both ways!" for everything.

What's your favorite dumb imgur platitude? Mine is 'I'm not racist, I hate everyone!' I'm sure you hear them talking about those drat whites [that aren't Jews] all the time.

I'm not racist, I just hate the bad ones!

As a [minority being criticized in this post], I [am going to prove to you that I am one of the good ones please don't hurt me]. None of this is actually true. I am in fact a sad, fat white man sitting on a computer that I bought with my meager paycheck in my parent's house.

It's such a bizarre attitude. A friend of a friend recently had a baby girl and now he often talks about how when she becomes a teenager he's never letting her leave the house because he's worried about her having sex. It's like dude she's 8 months old why the gently caress are you thinking about this?

It's because literally all he thinks women are good for is having sex with. If he would be horrified to have you say this to him, maybe he needs to hear it.

I didn't get a Childfree vibe from that at all...

Unless it was uploaded to imgur to post on r/Childfree?

I'm sorry but your Cecily av gets me every time.

Re: Childfree, I always kind of giggle when I see people who are in their early 20s talking about how they are childfree. Like...that's pretty normal. I'm 27 and I don't have kids and on Halloween I went to a friend's house, got drunk and came home at 2am. All the people at the party were my age or older. None of them had kids. Never once did the subject of us not having children come up. It seems weird to be obsessed with telling people you are so glad you don't have kids.

I'm glad my avatar brings joy to the hearts of goons.

A lot of the Childfree weirdness is because of family/social/DOCTOR pressures to have kids; e.g., family hounding you every time "when you gonna have a babby", Doctor refusing medical procedures because "you may want babby some day." So people get pretty frustrated and so the backlash is kind of a byproduct of that built up frustration. Not that it isn't funny or over the top, like that story where some goth threw ketchup on some kids in mcdonalds because they were loud.

I mean, I get it in a lot of ways. I'm a lesbian and I get told at the gynecologist that I should be taking prenatal vitamins because "you never know when it can happen!" (I do! It would involve rape!), but:
1) why are people who are so anti-kid be thinking constantly and posting constantly about how they don't have kids and defining themselves as anti-child
2) how many of these people end up just having kids

Whenever I meet people who are virulently childfree, I get the distinct impression that the lady doth protest too much. Or I hang out with too many gay people who have no prospect of reproducing so we don't obsess about it and talk about things that have nothing to do with children because we are adults. My favorite restaurant/bar is 21 and over for a reason, though. Sweet, sweet silence.

Nope. She wrote me a script for prenatal vitamins. I did not choose to fill it. I should also mention that during this appointment, I specifically asked to go on birth control because of cramps. So even if I was getting porked on the regular by a man, I clearly didn't want to get pregnant. Oh, she also tried to sell me on the prenatal vitamins by telling me it would make me hair grow. I have short hair. Like, boy-short. I hate having my hair grow. It just means more haircuts. But now I'm at an LGBT friendly doctor's office where the most awkward thing they ask is my pronouns multiple times within a visit.

In fact transwomen are actually at a disadvantage because they have zero testosterone (I wonder if they'll get to take supplements like male athletes with testicular cancer can). Of course their fuckability (the true measure of the female athlete) is still rock-bottom so the point is moot.

Aside from those issues being completely unrelated, how the hell does a person have an issue with equal pay and maternity leave?

These bills come up every so often in Congress and they still have a majority voting against them, including female congress members. But also equal pay involves things that libertarians don't like, including more union-based pay policies, publishing pay schedules for employees and moving away from pay negotiations. Also once women start to dominate a field, it becomes lower paying and less important. See: teaching.

That loving chili recipe makes me so mad. Why do you need to shake your spice mixture!? Why are you just putting the exact spices that are in that spice packet in!? You're not even adding like something new and interesting. You are not a bad rear end because you can make chili. Add in waffles and scrambled eggs and you are a grill away from being a Midwestern dad.

And there are like three vegetables in that entire album: some bell peppers, what amounts to a spring in the crunchwrap, and tomatoes. They're all getting scurvy.
