I was dumb, had plenty of wife-options but kept holding out for something better, not realizing I should’ve just listened to dad all along and molded a good wife out of good stock.

Even as a teen I planned on getting married kinda late, like 28, just because I didn’t know how to reconcile my rebellious “don’t lecture me, woman, I’ll do whatever I want” attitude with being a husband. (another lesson actually, they go together pretty well)

It’s just gross how nobody seems to take fertility seriously. The loss of fertility should be mourned, instead they just tell teenagers “awww shucks, anyways here’s even MORE birth control, you’re probably sterile, but as long as you keep taking BC pills you won’t be uncomfortable!”. She said they almost treated it like she was lucky, and her mom could rest easy knowing there wouldn’t be a teen mom under her roof - like she even hung out w/ boys to begin with.

Just a nasty, foul system, and all this “women make for better OBGYN’s!” shit is apparently a total farce
