The only time I got close to thinking I found the right guy to have a kid with, I brought up my concerns about pregnancy and mistrust of doctors. His take on that was: "If you don't want kids tell me now so I don't waste my time." I noped out of there and have no regrets. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Seleni@lemmy.world 8 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 child) My man does want kids, but is not only sympathetic to and respectful of my not wanting to produce any, but is properly horrified at how women are treated by the medical community. The day he learned not only about the Husband Stirch, but that some doctors just give women the Stitch without bothering to ask even the husband, assuming the husband would be thrilled and the wife didn’t matter, he just about blew a gasket. We’ve decided to adopt instead. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] Wren@lemmy.today [S] 6 points 3 months ago Good on you guys. It's an absolute shame that the medical establishment forced your hand but fantastic you have such a supportive partner. permalink fedilink source parent
