All this kissing-ass of pregnant women is one of the big irritants that I see out there. It's just sickening.

Years ago, as long as a father showed up at the hospital for the delivery, all was well. And sometimes even that didn't happen.

Nowadays, a guy is expected to drop everything and post some fucking bedside vigil for untold hours after her water breaks. He needs to be INSIDE the delivery room at all times.

And the not-so-subtle message is: if you don't do any of this, and be a slave to her whims, you are a horrible monster. We're supposed to bow down and worship their wombs...and get nothing in return.

The truth is that pregnant women, for thousands of years, have (for good reason) been subject to a variety of social taboos in most cultures. In some traditional cultures, even being around pregnant women is not considered good for a man.

I believe there was already an ROK article on "eating for two," and how terribly wrong that mantra is. There is still much to be said about pregnancy and the idolatry of a swollen belly in the modern world. The return of traditional roles would have to include no longer putting the pregnant on a pedestal. With that in mind, I wonder how red-pill approach to a pregnancy could be done without triggering any (major) blue-pill consequences. Thankfully, I'm not qualified to evaluate this much further.

Now that I think about it, if I ever have a child, I'm pushing for a wet nurse.

If you happen to have the link, could you share it?

Hopefully, it is "eating for 1.06 to 1.07" or else you knocked up a fat chick or a anorexic chick.

Thats because its not natural to look ugly/fat after becoming pregnant. Sure pregnancy stresses people out, but it shouldnt. Chicks do unhealthy stuff while pregnant, or use that as an excuse to, but really in hunter gatherer societies eating healthily she should still look as hot as she used to(accounting a small amount for age)

One of the very best posts I've seen here. Ever.
