    It’s much easier to argue against something if you completely make up ridiculous scenarios to argue against.

    Our kid is non-binary. No parent is happy for that to happen. I don’t think any person is happy to realize it about themselves, except to the extent that it explains why they had been so unhappy previously.

      That’s the thing the angries don’t realize, life would be much simpler for the people concerned if they were just cis-heteros, it’s not about being contrarians and it’s not a choice, it’s just who they are and that should be ok so it becomes something that isn’t more difficult!

    I haven’t yet seen anyone else point out:

    If the embryo was tested, they would know the sex before transferring it to the surrogate uterus (easily avoiding the problem). IVF is insanely expensive, as are surrogates. (Surrogates go for $50k plus per pregnancy)

    Whoever did this comic is so willfully (and woefully) ignorant on so many levels that I wonder how they’re able to function at all

              Answer the question. While being ignorant, in a thread that started by accusing people of being ignorant, would you ask others to back something up when the information is readily available?

                This is a platform meant for discussion and I offered scepticism and further discussion. You’re being a dick.

                  Because I called you a dunce for being ignorant in a thread accusing other of ignorance? Yeah. You’re objectively a dunce kiddo.

                You realize that 1. Burden of proof is on the one making the claim, and 2. If someone asks the question it doesn’t mean they were the one to downvote you?

                You really shouldn’t let them get to you so much. People ask questions.
