I had a dream that my bio dad and step mom had a boy after having two girls and I was highkey devastated lol
Could be because I'm just so over this scrote-y world with boys growing up to be the nastiest little misogynists.
No matter how good you raise them... cultural socialization does the rest of the work and there's no guarantee he won't be tarnished by his peers or other negative male influences.
Thats super relatable. I once dreamed that I found out I was unplanned pregnant. And I was freaking out because I didnt want to have a baby, but an abortion seemed like a lot of hassle. So I decided on a compromise; I would wait to find out the sex. If it was female, I'd keep my daughter. And if it was male, I'd abort lol
Socialization and especially porn, turns even securely attached boys into maniacs. We can’t unsee this once we start seeing it. It is the stuff of nightmares for sure!
Your nightmare is my reality and it is a nightmare.
Anyone else here who only had sisters and who grew up hearing her mother complaining that she "aaaaallllways wanted a son but only got girls, poor me"? And it was only my mother, never my father who was like that. She even had special preferences of what her "son" should look like (eyecolor, haircolor, family features he should inherit) which was incidentally exactly what me and my sisters didn't look like. Oh, and she had a name chosen.
Nothing like constantly hearing "Oh I wish I had a blond, blue eyed boy! I would name him X" when you and your sisters are all brunette.
The sad truth. This is 1 of the reasons I don't want to have kids. It's not just misogyny--u see it all the time in the news & documentaries. 2 parent household, Christian bake sale family, straight As... then the kid falls into the wrong social group and is now facing years in prison for drug possession because of their college roommate. When you raise a child, you're only doing 50% not matter how hard you try. Humans are social creatures down to our DNA
