RE: Sex Doesn't Matter, But it Does

in Reflections5 months ago

Can't switch people off and on like a light switch. Traditions take time to change, sometimes many generations pass before things change much.

A lot of the traditions are perpetuated by women themselves. Things like who stays home with the child, as often the woman wants to stay home longer wit the baby, even if it would make financial sense for the man to stay home. Is it social conditioning, or genetic desire?

For me it wasn't social conditioning or genetic desire...it was what was best for my children, namely breastfeeding. I, for one, am so glad that this is returning to the norm. When a man can breastfeed a child naturally, we'll talk lol

Sort:  

I don't know much about breastfeeding, but boobs, now them I like.

(Yep, I know this is a stupid fucken comment, but clearly I'm ok with it.) 😁

lol it's like a siren call 😂

The power of boobage is massive.

Genetic desire, right? The desire being the way we have evolved as a species. Social engineering isn't natural and usually fails to allow for actual genetics.

In Finland though, it is possible to split parental leave down the middle, and more men are starting to stay home with the kids after the breastfeeding stage. Definitely isn't 50/50 though.

lol I guess you got me there! I'm all for naturally feeding my children much like getting pregnant in the first place...no baby bottles or turkey basters for me 😂. I was built for breast feeding (having breasts) and you were built for impregnating things (having a penis)😂

Here it is the same with some men taking over the house and child rearing, but it isn't the norm.
