None of this is aimed at soma or anyone else in particular.

That is a seriously bad ideal to have. THE most fulfilling thing someone can do with their life? No way, not even close. Anyone can bump uglies and grow a fetus- how about making positive change for people? Helping others? Teaching? Healing? Counseling? I could go on.

I think it's a hilarious tragedy that people think making a child (something any male and female with working genitals have been able to do for the entirety of our existence) is the most fulfilling thing they can do, when there are people out there living- and dying- homeless and starving, many of them children. There are tons of children up for adoption, who deserve a fair chance at a good life- and that's not just raising a child like you would your own... that's making a difference.

Pfft.
