TMI Tuesday, gender, fertility 

I have rather a lot of complicated feelings around fertility, pregnancy, and childbirth, and I feel like a lot of my early gender exploration involved that as an aspect. Like, on the one hand, it was fine, I told myself, to pretend to be a vixen and still be cis, but once I started consider parenthood, I kinda locked up, and it took a lot of digging to understand I wasn't just in this to be a girl fox online for TS sake.

Bit weird, now, 'cause I would never want to bring another life into this world, my desires for motherhood aside :P The world is too awful, and if there's even the slightest chance of me passing on my mental health struggles, I'm 100% against it.

And, like, fertility comes up quite a bit in play for me, too! I suspect some of that is as a placeholder for what a) can't happen and b) I wouldn't let happen, and some of it is just plain kink. But yeah, shit's complicated.

@makyo Fuckin' same to like, most of that.

Part of me really wishes I were physiologically capable of bearing life. Another part of me is thankful than I'm sterile. It's a mess.
