Every time I hear people panic about the dropping birthrate it just reminds me of how we practically gaslight people into thinking giving birth is the most important thing they can do then treat them like shit once they do it. I hear about how people suffer adverse health affects that no one helps them with. I saw a vid from this woman whose full on uterus fell out shortly after giving birth and the nurse she called was treating it like it was no big deal. Idk man, you body can legit fall apart during and after birth and it feels like no one cares about helping you with that but they expect you to go through it anyway. Even if I wanted to have kids I’d be pretty hesitant about all that.

We don’t even give leave after someone gives birth Imagine having to go back to your mc fuckshit job pissing yourself and then your uterus falls out but you can’t fucking leave or your fired. Seriously, its not feminism that convinced women that this isn’t worth it. Its society as a whole constantly treating you like shit even though you were told this was important. And I’m not even getting into how disregarded black women are in hospitals. I heard the mortality rate in the U.S. is already pretty back and for black women its WORSE. You’re telling me that black woman have an increased chance of dying because the hospital staff care even less about them?

And another thing, NEVER trust someone thats telling you to have kids and telling you how wonderful motherhood is when they’re looking pristine and the room they’re filming in looks like a page from a Home Living magazine. Whatever is really going on shes privileged enough to not deal with it. I’m not hear to convince people to not have kids, just really think about your wants (not what people tell you to want) and you situation and be aware of the health risks.
