When buying live lobsters for a fancy dinner, it is suggested to first let your Corgi assess the quality.

Epic battle in 3… 2… 1…

“You’ll make up your mind!”
“All women want kids! It’s in our nature.”

“You’ll eventually settle down and have kids, you’ve evolved to be this way.”
“Feminism has ruined women, you’ve devalued motherhood and neglected your maternal duties. Raising kids is a beautiful thing, you’ll see.”

Just some statements that I’ve seen being said to women who speak about not wanting to have kids.

That awkward silence that settles into a conversation when you say you never want to have children (or get married. Or both in my case.)

I don’t know if this counts as stfu-worthy anti-choiceyness, but it sure as hell annoyed me.

Most people don’t have sex to procreate though.  They do it to reach an orgasm and/or just have a general good time.

Dating is not just for marriage.  Dating can just be finding someone to pass the time with. 

I’m sure happyonaccident does not have a very good sex and/or dating life.

OK. Lemme just try my best here with this one.

Sex is for procreation. Sure. That is one use for sex. But we have been using parts of our bodies to do multiple things for a very long time, actually. If sex is just for making babies, then mouths should just be for taking in and chewing up food. I mean that’s what they’re there for, right? Physiologically? I’m not saying sex is just for procreation but go with me here if you really think that. So therefore, mouths should just be for eating. But we kiss with our mouths too. Do you enjoy kissing? Some people do. You kiss with your mouth, which is supposed to be used for eating to sustain you. Or, that’s how it would be, if we were a really basic species that didn’t develop our own ideas and customs and ways of doing things. Some cultures don’t like to kiss! Some believe your soul can be sucked out through your mouth, so they don’t kiss. This just proves people see kissing differently, and there’s nothing wrong with any of that. Now, you may say “Well, if you think there’s nothing wrong with seeing it differently, why are you arguing with me seeing it differently from you?” You’re making a blanket statement and stating socially irrelevant facts, and claiming that sex is the same for everyone. That’s why. And it’s impossible for you to make these claims, okay? Just impossible. You don’t know everyone, therefore you can’t make that claim. Full stop. You can’t argue with me there without making no sense. So.

Marriage. Don’t get me started on marriage. Well, you did by saying this online so /rolls up sleeves.

Marriage is a sham, in my opinion. It’s bullshit. It’s been brought up in some societies to be one of the best days of your life and something you should look forward to, something that if you and your partner commit to, can usher you into a new stage in your eternal love.

Why?

Let’s look at the basics of this.

It’s two rings, a ceremony to show off to your friends and family just how in love you are (because you need to prove it to them for some reason; I really don’t think people come to weddings to be “witness to such love” like some say. Let’s be realistic here), and a few signed papers, and some nifty tax breaks or whatever. And for the rest of eternity, you’re bound together in this beautiful bond that ensures you will always be together in sickness and health, til death do you part.

That’s why half of marriages in the western world end in divorce, right? Because they’re so dang great? 

I really don’t understand what can be proven in a marriage that can’t be proven in a committed relationship between people. So the unmarried couple doesn’t have the rings or taken the vows. So what? Does that somehow make their love less important or valid? And if you say yes, I want to know who the fuck you are to judge, and why you even give half a shit. “Stop”ping at dating is not a bad thing. Some people just don’t want to be tied down by marriage. Why?

• they don’t like their family, so they don’t want them to come to the ceremony
• they don’t have the money to plan the wedding they want
• they are uncomfortable with the idea of being “bound” to someone forever
• divorces are messy, can financially ruin you forever, emotionally traumatise or destroy you, and take a lot more to get out of than a break up
• they think marriage is stupid, useless, a waste of time, etc.
• they aren’t religious!?
• they CAN’T get married, because it’s illegal where they live
• I’m sure there are myriad other reasons I’m too rambly to continue to list here.

Dating can be for whatever the person wants dating to be for, and it’s not up to you to say what it is and is not for, as you are not all people, and therefore cannot make such blanket statements about something that a large portion of the population takes part in.

And while we’re at it, let’s discuss some physiology of the human body in regards to sexual intercourse and reaching orgasm. When the foetus is developing, it forms the penis and clitoris out of the exact same tissues in the exact same places. Essentially, the clitoris is a small penis, and the penis is a large clitoris. So, considering males have to ejaculate to achieve orgasm, this is done by way of stimulating the penis.

Stay with me here. I know this must seem like a lot of information for that Victorian-era mindset you’ve got going. But I promise you it gets better.

So, the penis is for stimulation to achieve orgasm and therefore ejaculation. Okay, so the same tissues used to achieve orgasm in the male are formed in the female body by way of the clitoris. But the female does not need to achieve orgasm to take in sperm and eventually (or not) expel a baby. But they still have a clitoris. If sex was strictly for procreation, and the female can procreate well enough without orgasm, why is the clitoris there? It would have been phased out via evolution long ago if we were not meant to enjoy sex for more than just procreation. See? I told you it would get better!

Also, if sex is for procreation strictly, our bodies would be able to get pregnant 100% of the time, every time we have sex, no matter what, no failure, no miscarriages, etc. And that does not happen.

And for the record, my boyfriend and I are in a committed relationship and have been for nearly 2 years now, and I don’t think we’re getting married. I mean we are both just sort of “eh” about it, because we have nothing to prove to anyone about the fact that we love each other (another socially constructed idea which I’m sure you’ve taken to be fact instead of neurological chemistry), nor can we legally be married as things stand now. 

So thanks for invalidating a whole bunch of shit you don’t understand because you don’t understand it. Trust me, my brain is quite numb right now.

^ seriously

Whenever I saw Katy Perry’s new music video i was incredibly confused. Why is she binding to go into an all girls marines troop? No one could ever EVER be a marine or even pass a physical binding at all let alone with ace bandages. Plus, when I was a baby queer I tried binding with ace bandages. It’s impossible if you don’t know what you’re doing. So the whole “Katy Perry randomly decides to do this in a public bathroom” thing is highly unlikely.

This is just a ~useless complaint~! (since I said the same goddamn thing last week!)

Seriously, though, all of this! My identity isn’t an outrageous costume.
