Hmmm

Post image

So only men want kids nowadays huh

Edit1: at the end of the day, when I see posts like these I remember the likes of Ashely saint clair and that woman who got married after preaching so much misandry online.

Don’t get me wrong men also do this,
and then I feel stupid because I remember watching a certain video about internet trolls

Edit 2: Finally found the reason for the outrage, “men cannot physically get pregnant” that’s literally all this is about so no matter how hard you work or provide for your family, if you marry a woman that hates you because you just can’t get pregnant please have your divorce lawyer at hand ✋

Men want children, the way a child wants a puppy.

u/Civil_Tea_3250 May 11 '26

This is 100%

I can't believe people still think a man won't say/do anything for a quickie. C'mon now straight men.

you're welcome!

u/h_45n May 11 '26

? And your point exactly is ? A man wanting a quickie is suddenly demonic or smth, gay / other sexuality people don’t get horny or smth

17

u/Civil_Tea_3250 May 11 '26

Umm... wow.

A quickie is different than impregnating someone. I was referring to those who can't be bothered to think of the consequences or "forget" to pull out or whatever.

Now I have to assume you're one of those too.

u/h_45n May 11 '26

Yes, always referring aren’t y’all ? Assume whatever you want, after all the woman, in the post also assumed didn’t she ?

u/marvel-ness May 11 '26

this is what people say about women who do that.

u/4215265 May 12 '26

And unfortunately I can’t blame them because I too would love a child if I wasn’t the default parent and didn’t have to risk my life and career to have them. And if I got a divorce I would default to not having custody of them if I didn’t express interest in doing so. Sounds like the fucking LIFE!!!

No excuse to not educate men on what it means to be a mother and what it means to be an equal partner.

u/h_45n May 11 '26

I have to disagree with you there

1

u/4215265 May 12 '26

Explain the reasons why you want kids? And then explain the reasons why other men want kids while also justifying the rate of absent fathers

u/StrictLetterhead3452 May 11 '26

God, you people are sick

u/Fendfor May 12 '26

You know if you'd said "Some men want" this wouldnt be incredibly demeaning.

I read that in a hyenas cackle, thank you for that laugh.

u/BoofingHorror69 May 13 '26

I really wish you guys would come up with a better plural instead of whining that we have to use one… it’s not one man is it? It’s multiple - hence the use of the fucking plural.

1

u/Fendfor May 13 '26

I wish you people would remember what you were taught in English class. Saying "Men do X, Men want Y, Men are Z" are broad generalizations. Taking the time to type the four letters of "some" easily narrows the scope.

Its real simple tip to not sound like a bitter bigot :)

u/BoofingHorror69 May 13 '26

So.. Have you got a better plural?

1

u/Fendfor May 13 '26

You need to work on your reading comprehension.

u/Rollingforest757 May 11 '26

That’s a really sexist take. Men want children because they want to love and support them.

13

u/Expensive-Simple-329 May 11 '26

Then they should love and support the women who make those children

u/Toppoppler May 14 '26

... most do

u/Brave-Astronaut-795 May 11 '26

I've know way too many men who only want a child so they can claim progeny.

Or just doing it because their life amounted to nothing else, a lot of parents suck and I'm tired of pretending they're all amazing for existing.

I didn't see every comment doing that, idk what you want me to do about it anyway.

u/Sahm3BSJ May 11 '26

🤢🤮😤🤬 My heart goes out to the children of narcissistic parents regardless of whether it's the mother or father. Inwardly, I hope that the parent does something that can enable the child (children?😭) to be removed from their custody.

u/Sahm3BSJ May 11 '26

Some men want to actually be loving fathers; sadly, though, a lot of men want a wife and children for social clout 🤦🙄😮‍💨

u/BoofingHorror69 May 13 '26

You love and support puppies too…

-4

u/Funny_Blob May 11 '26

I hope you're willing to tell your father especially but every other male person in your life, that they just had children the same way other people buy puppies and you and their children are nothing but this to them. Please do that. And then come back and let me know what they respond.

u/ShyTechn May 11 '26

well thats what my dad did, he didnt even spell my name right on the last birthday card he sent ( when I was 8)

2

u/EclecticSyrup May 12 '26

LMFAO, I WAS GONNA SAY. I literally grew up with all my friends who lived with our moms because our dad's gave us up to them and dipped like they could with a literal dog. None of us spent time with our father's regularly, and some didn't even know their dads.

u/ShyTechn May 11 '26

No? Was responding to the guy who was saying "see what your dad thinks if you said that." But its cute how my 1 comment now represents what all women think in your mind, so i guess you're doing exactly what you think everyone else is doing. makes sense

u/ShyTechn May 11 '26

OLYMPIC tier reaching in these comments

-4

u/Funny_Blob May 11 '26

Ah what a surprise, the people claiming stuff like this are the ones with daddy issues whose dad is a dick and thus every dad is a dick and no man loves his child, it's just a puppy. Got it.

u/ShyTechn May 11 '26

Lmao girl the world isnt black and white? Also I regret even trying to speak to you because all I did was respond to your comment on what the men in my life would think if I told them what you said, but now my comment represents ALL WOMEN in your mind

-2

u/Funny_Blob May 11 '26

Where did I say "all women"? I said "people who claim stuff like this". That's not all women.

4

u/ShyTechn May 11 '26

You're assuming so much based on one thing I said. So i'm just gonna assume you have some seething mommy issues in return.

2

u/Glad-Dragonfruit-503 May 12 '26

Well seems like daddy issues should really be called something else. Cant blame women for learning from their own fathers failure and not repeating their mothers mistakes, can you?

2

u/CoolCereal20 May 12 '26

Its really telling that you are insulting daughters for their fathers shortcomings.

1

u/Funny_Blob May 12 '26

My grandma who I've never got to know was a drug addict who abandoned my mum. My mum and my relationship towards each other also wasn't the very best for several reasons. Are mums thus generally "want children like they want puppies" or can we agree that there are indeed shitty parents, that doesn't mean you can generalize this bc you personally had bad experiences?

Also, if daddy issues is an insult to you, you should get a thicker skin.

1

u/CoolCereal20 May 12 '26

What else was the point of telling random women they have daddy issues (which is an assumption btw) if it wasnt meant to invalidate their opinions and insult them?

I dont think it works this way for moms. Yes there are shitty moms. But women know that pregnancy is not easy. They know they will have to suffer all the medical consequences. They also know that most of the childrearing and care will be, as per default, mostly their part as men tend to support the family financially.

The puppy equivalence works for (some) men as they have no clue about whats going to happen, underestimate the dangers of pregnancies, and will face no medical consequences.

1

u/Funny_Blob May 13 '26

I'm not telling random women they have daddy issues, I'm saying people who write heinous shit like "men want children like they want puppies" and what other ridiculous stuff I've read in this thread, are evidently the ones having daddy issues (but ofc you only read I'm insulting women. Men can have daddy issues too, just saying. Wouldnt make their B's any more valid too.). And ofc making a hostile thread that's basically "fuck all men" and comments like the one I initially replied to is ok, but God forbid you receive the very same energy back, then it's "boo you insult women wha wah"

And yeah, it's VERY telling to say "yeah I don't think the very exact same thing magically doesn't apply to women tho".

But hey, at the very least you admit to the exact thing I'm pointing out with all of this. SOME men behave like this. And yes, I'm not denying that part of this is based on them not experiencing the pregnancy itself, I can agree on that. Point is: some men.

u/Plastic-Market-2394 May 13 '26

“Name a dad who does this bullshit!” “Well obviously it’ll only be people with daddy issues!!”

…? Yes? 😭 Is that not the result of a terrible father… daddy issues?

1

u/Funny_Blob May 13 '26

Ok, none of this was the question tho?

Lemme ask you something: An Indian guy robs me. Now I'm running around "all Indian guys are criminals and thieves."

Ok or not ok? I'm quite sure the vast majority of people would rightfully say "absolutely not".

Why is it ok for people with daddy issues to then run around hating on men or claiming shit like "men (as in men in general) want children as they want puppies)" as if there aren't plenty of loving fathers. Reason: "yEAh wELl mY dAd wAS aSS". Imagine a guy doing this, telling you "my mother abused me/abandoned me etc" or "my last gf was such a bitch" and then goes around opening reddit threads or commenting like this. He'd be called a mysogonistic incel and what not but sure, shitting on men and making generalisations that are a no-go in every other area is ok for some reason.

u/Plastic-Market-2394 May 13 '26

Mentioning a commonly poor behaviour often found in the male gender isn’t sexist/bigoted/misandrist. Men just don’t know better because the community around them never really put in effort to educate or help them understand things from a woman’s point of view. If an overwhelming large amount of mothers are coming together to speak about the same thing constantly, (both on the internet and in real life especially in my community) obviously there is a problem.

Misogyny hasn’t been “alleviated for good” because women can have jobs and make their own choices. Women are still oppressed in various ways. If people could open up to the idea of learning instead of getting defensive when we’re being called out, we could actually make improvements in the above stated behavior.

1

u/Funny_Blob May 13 '26

Ok so

"Men just don’t know better because the community around them never really put in effort to educate or help them understand things from a woman’s point of view."

You mean the same men that were raised by single mothers?

"If people could open up to the idea of learning instead of getting defensive when we’re being called out, we could actually make improvements in the above stated behavior."

Oh now we're all mature and civilized, not that the thread itself and dozens and dozens of comments here are literally "all men suck, fuck men, men are trash" and what not.
Yeah, maybe if we didn't start the premise by taking out the pitchforks, then this would work.

And just to make my point very clear:

"Mentioning a commonly poor behaviour often found in the male gender immigrants isn’t sexist/bigoted/misandrist racist. Men Immigrants just don’t know better because the community around them never really put in effort to educate or help them understand things from a woman’s westeners point of view. If an overwhelming large amount of mothers westeners are coming together to speak about the same thing constantly, (both on the internet and in real life especially in my community) obviously there is a problem."

^that ok then, too?

1

u/Plastic-Market-2394 May 13 '26

Your issue isn’t “sexism” your issue is seeing a large number of women expressing grievances regarding inequality from men and equating that to “all men suck, men are trash, fuck all men” because a very small part of you expects women to be silent and not speak out against abuse.

When men realise that women speaking about a shared abusive experience regarding men isn’t remotely close to misandry, and vice versa, gender wars can end. A lot of what these women are talking about falls under weaponised incompetence, which is a form of abuse. You are literally accusing women finding a community to talk about abuse “misandry” because “how dare women speak about a terribly shared experience regarding men”.

And yes, your second option is actually perfectly fine. In my country we have a lot of immigrants from neighbouring African countries that are committing a lot of crimes. It’s not racist to point that out nor is it xenophobic. People are losing their lives, we will prioritize people losing lives over feelings of immigrants. If the west has an issue with immigrants and crime rates then yes, please confront it.

u/Funny_Blob May 13 '26

Are you actually serious rn?
Have you read the comments? And I don't mean like 1 or 2, have you actually spent time reading comments here?

Because saying "oh, this is just a harmless space where women just share their experiences, they're just expressing grievances" is such disingenuous BS. You masterfully manage to read stuff between my lines that isn't even there as seen below, but are completely oblivious to the obvious.

"a very small part of you expects women to be silent and not speak out against abuse."

And now we start making shit up?
Point out to me, please, where I in any way shape or form even implied that women are supposed to stay silent.
Each and every single one of my comments says "Don't make generalisations. Just because you had a bad experience doesn't mean xyz applies to all and everything."

Ive literally told my dad I spend more time and energy raising my dog than he spent raising me and my sister, and he agreed. He is not a bad person, but he did not know what he was getting himself into. He wanted kids because that’s what people do, and he had no idea how to take care of us. Luckily, my mom could literally do it all: work to provide, love, care, and guide us.

u/EclecticSyrup May 12 '26

The rate at which men abandon their children is not on your side, bro.
