r/redditmomentmoment Redditors find pregnant woman disgusting
Really weird for them to turn this into a feminist perspective when it's just misogyny

Gotta love the "women can choose freely as long as they pick what I think it's good" type of feminist.
Nothing better than being such a bitter and hateful person that you manage to help ruin the reputation of the movement that gave them rights.

My wife used to maintain a mom blog. You wouldn't believe the amount random unsolicited hate she would get from women, for having the gall to post a photo a chicken and rice photo with a blurb about how she enjoys cooking for her family.

It just doesn't make any sense to me and I'm a woman that does not want kids.
Still, how did I get here? The stork!?

I get this irrational fear when I see pregnant women that they’ll have a bad fall onto their front. I feel like they need to be in a big comfy nest. It’s silly I know.

seems like a more rational fear given pregnancy does put a woman in a physically vulnerable state, as opposed to going on a borderline-pron tier rant about milking.

I was subbed to a child free subreddit bc well i’m child free but came across a post with such vile comments about women’s bodies during pregnancy, yes i agree pregnancy can definitely be traumatic and change the female body a lot but the things they were saying were borderline incel talk, stuff like pregnant women should cover up because no one wants to see their disgusting bellies, basically just shaming them in such odd ways and when i commented about how people are starting to sound misogynistic i got downvoted like ok

I think some of them are 'feminist' but their views loop right back around to hating women just phrased in a different way

That's a fetish poster. "Impregnated by the seed of a man"? Fetish disguised as disgust

Unfortunately there's too many comments and upvotes for it to just be fetish

It’s probably a 13 year old who thinks they are being so profound. The stuff I said when I was younger and trying to appear smart was truly cringeworthy.

I was just thinking that. I think a pillar of pregnancy fetish has always been "Everyone can see what this man did to me", and this hits on that too many times to be a coincidence.

The irony is.. If one really wishes to put a moral value on pregnancy as these people do.. I think they are the ones that have internalized misogyny..
I mean.. women have the ability to create live. That is quite extraordinary. And something men can't do. So you can chose to have respect for that and see it for the wonder it is.. Or completely diminish it, making it completely ordinary..
That feels like something men bent on controlling women would do..

Sigh. I think we should let people who want to be pregnant, be pregnant. And those who don’t want to be pregnant, should have the right to not be pregnant.
Live and let live. Why is it so bloody difficult?
