To me, this smells like “I would if I could”.
What I said (and what the original poet is saying) is “I won’t, and I can’t anyway”. That’s not the same thing as “I would if I could”.
But would you consider it, if you knew you would be a good father?
Fuck no, I don’t even like kids.

I genuinely think her reasons are not complete.
That’s just a roundabout way of saying you don’t think her reasons are good enough. Which, I mean, that’s just like, your opinion, man
That’s NOT a good reason to transition.
Don’t think that’s for anyone to say but them tbh
there is nothing wrong about talking to a therapist.
Absolutely. I’m in therapy myself. That said, even someone who’s fully processed their trauma in therapy isn’t necessarily willing to have kids and potentially inflict that trauma on them. I know for a fact that no matter how much healing I do, I’d be a terrible father because I’ve gone through far too much to ever consider dragging a kid into the world and exposing them even in the slightest to the shit I was put through. The fact that she’s able to express these emotions so clearly and concisely speaks to the fact that she’s very likely processed all of this already and come to a conclusion
A lot of people are childfree because they have severe generational trauma that they’re afraid they’ll inflict on their potential kids and therefore be terrible parents. That’s as good a reason to be childfree as any.
Get therapy even if you have no intention of ever having kids. Therapy for everyone!
The fuck are you talking about. People with disabilities are incredibly creative and it’s fucking disgusting you think being a dumbass qualifies as a disability
It’s a dramatic poetry reading, it doesn’t necessarily reflect the actual magnitude of her feelings on the subject
