    As a trans man, I would be happy to have a child. My uterus still works, as much as I would suffer going off of testosterone enough to carry, it is something I have always wanted.

    Unfortunately, these people have made it legal for me to be fired for being trans. They have voted for politicians that have done nothing to address the catastrophic state of medical care which renders it prohibitively expensive to realistically ever be able to care for a child.

    I believe that children deserve stable living conditions and a future, which does not seem to be something that they are concerned with at all.

    Southern Baptists must have the highest rate of homosexuality in the world. It’s all they talk about. They throw it in with absolutely everything. “Do you guys want to order a pizza and end homosexuality?” “What movie did you want to watch while we think about homosexuality?” “We’re going to Aruba this summer and we’re going to think about homosexuality”

        My wife would agree. She has… so many womanly issues, but can’t find anyone to yank the damn thing out.

        She wants no children.

        I, her husband, had a vasectomy before we ever met.

        We have no use for the damn thing and it just causes so many problems.

            My doctor is on that list! I don’t wanna openly say who she is because I don’t wanna completely doxx myself, but I can reply to any DMs with her name if anyone wants a Pa recommendation. She’s great. First gynecologist that hasn’t tried to pressure me into wanting kids.

          If you are in Pa or willing to drive there, DM me. I can send you the info of my doctor. She’s really open minded and is one of the few in the state that will sterilize women (taking out the fallopian tubes) just because they want it.

          I have recurring endometriosis and we’ve just decided that a total hysterectomy to handle the issue for good is the best next step.

      Welcome to lemmy. It’s a collection of federated communities. This community is hosted on lemmy.world, which employs similarly heavy-handed moderation tactics to Reddit.

      However, like all lemmy instances the moderators are rather short-staffed so you’ll probably be fine unless someone goes out of their way to report your comment.

      I came here after being permabanned from Reddit, but I still get posts removed. I recently looked at my Mod Logs for the first time, and was surprised at how many removals I had, some for really stupid stuff that would have gone through at Reddit.

      Overall, though, Lemmy is a lot more permissive, especially compared to the new, post- HitlerPig Reddit.

        Federated stuff like lemmy really ends to with a much wider range of mods / admins. There’s still a lot variation between mod teams on reddit too, but there’s a lot more similarities there between the biggest subreddits (especially because of “power mods”, and more overlap in userbase & culture).

        Tldr expect weirder removal reasons here. And check where stuff is hosted when posting.

      The general population can barely hold attention spans on anything that doesn’t have at least three inset screens of people reacting and video games playing at the same time.

      I am not holding my breath that even the most “inflammatory” ideas are more than WWE theater and fans of the show yelling at the screen. Wake me up when there’s an actual, organized resistance that doesn’t crumble into leftist infighting and purity testing because someone said the word “retard” and now everyone is at each other’s throats. (On discord of course.)

      You can say whatever you please, but we all know it is hot air.

      White Christian Conservatives are some of the most insulated-from-consequences people in the world.

      We all generally let them because we don’t like confronting people in public spaces because everyone is too insecure about social perception.

    Oh, cool! As a willfully childless person (even though I live with my partner and we have the necessary bits to try for children), I finally get to be one of the cool groups being ostracized by these stupid religious nuts. Hey Queer people! We get to hang out! Let’s party!

    (I’ve been watching porn the whole time. Just let me have my moment feeling special.)

    Sorry chuds that’s not going to cure your incel problem. You can’t suddenly make people produce future generations by banning what you don’t like.

      Thanks for quoting this. It makes way more sense than the way I first read the headline as “Willful childishness.”

      Lol, you don’t have to be celebate to be willfully childless. I have plenty of friends that got the snip/knit before having a kid because they don’t want one. And they are some of the sluttiest motherfuckers I know (and they’d take that as the compliment it was).

      I just had a look at the website of the church I once went to many decades ago, and it was interesting to see how all their bigoted positions were couched in layers of euphemism about “family”.

      It’s as though their web guy tried writing what they really believed, read it back, and thought “we can’t say that out loud, it’s clearly unacceptable, how do we say this without saying it?”
