My queer feminist thoughts on children…
So, I made a vow when I was about 7 that I will never become pregnant, and I plan to keep that promise to myself forever.* Even after I die, in case science one day allows for dead women to give birth. If I DO end up having kids, which of these options should I choose: adoption, impregnating a woman with my imaginary semen, asking a friend to incubate my eggs, stealing one (from a Republican family, obvs), or buying one from a trafficker?
* There aren’t many promises I made when I was 7 that I am still interested in keeping, but my 7-year-old self was spot-on here. I must have been (accurately) predicting a future full of non-reproductive queer sex at an early age.
