What's up with there being so many pregnant TIFs?

submitted by JustWhy from self.GenderCritical

I am currently pregnant for the first time and I don't go to many pregnancy subs, but when I do (r/babybumps for example) there are a ton of posts by pregnant FTMs! Sometimes they even mention it when it's completely irrelevant. It's completely insane to me. Here you are, a woman, literally pregnant. You are doing something only a woman can do, with the assistance of something that only a man can do. There's literally no other way to make a baby. Even test tube babies are made with a female part and male and carried by only a female. And yet you want to scream to the world you're a man? I mean that's just nuts. I don't have any other words for that.

But my question is, how did this happen? Why are there so many? What is even going on? I guess these are the assholes pushing the "chest feeding" trend but how did we get here. Does anyone have any insight on these insane people? Also let's not forget how fucked up they will raise the poor child. We are going to have a chunk of a generation raised by TIMs and TIFs.

FTM also means first time mom. It's confusing but I'm pretty that's what it means 99% of the time.

Oh my god! Thank you!!!! Maybe the world isn't as crazy after all haha. I hate all the dumb subreddit abbreviations. And don't get me started on the awful relationship abbreviations.

lol that's so ironic that the initialism for "female to male" can also mean "first time mom". It seems their ideology isn't so widespread. Maybe the wider it gets spread the bigger the resulting backlash will be. From now on FTM means 'first time mom' to me lol. It needs an Urban Dictionary entry.

They think it makes them special. Poor children! I will correct you if you say birthing partner, chestfeeding or any of that bullshit. We don't have to cater to a small population of sex traitors. Don't like your female anatomy being looked at and discussed? Don't get pregnant then.

They consume too much yaoi with MPREG (male pregnancy).

I didn't know First Time Mom either, but there ARE a lot of pregnant TIF (boldly calling themselves men and objecting to female words) -- I've noticed that too.

I guess they're trying to prove they got a gay man to have sex with them (in the "bonus hole")? Which I highly doubt actually. I think they pair off with men in dresses. All that straight couple with insane extra steps bull.

It's always ironic when TiFs get pregnant. It's the most female thing to do, so how is it not triggering"dysphoria"? It's literally the most news worthy things TiFs do. TiMS are in the news for smashing women's records and winning women's awards etc, but all I see for TiFs in the news is getting pregnant. You don't see TiFs trying to be in men's sports. Wonder why that is hmmm 🤔

The names change but the rules stay the same.
