Slate Feminist ‘devastated to learn I was having a boy’
When this lady over at Slate found out she was going to have a white boy for a baby (“ugh”), she apparently didn’t take the news well and decided to share her myriad musings with her audience at the publication in a multi-thousand-word feminist screed you almost (almost) have to read to believe.

Some highlights (or lowlights, as it were):
- She used to “joke that if I had a boy, I would give him away, which is the kind of bit that really lands with the right crowd.”
- “Whenever a well-meaning acquaintance or stranger asked whether I was having a boy or a girl, I didn’t even try to hide my displeasure: ‘A boy. Ugh.’”
- “It’s, like, this giant responsibility that’s, like, sitting on me to cure the problem of, you know, white men.”
- “So much of the grief expecting parents feel isn’t tied to having to love and raise a son. It is attached to the loss of a future with a daughter.”
Via Slate (emphasis added):
“What do you think it is?” my doctor asked me on the phone. He was calling to reveal the sex of my baby, which expectant parents can find out these days via a blood test about 10 weeks into pregnancy.
Call it a mother’s intuition or a penchant for pessimism, but I already knew.
“A boy,” I replied stoically, resigned to my fate. I could feel it in my bones, or, more aptly, in my uterus…
When I was a teenager, I would joke that if I had a boy, I would give him away, which is the kind of bit that really lands with the right crowd and is incredibly off-putting to everyone else….
Whenever a well-meaning acquaintance or stranger asked whether I was having a boy or a girl, I didn’t even try to hide my displeasure: “A boy. Ugh.”…
“This baby is going to have a penis,” said 32-year-old Anna, who was in her second trimester when we talked. “That feels so—even though I’m married and have a husband, it just feels so, like, alien, almost.”…
Sarah identified with this conundrum: “I know how to raise, like, a confident woman who’s not going to take any shit, but I don’t really know how to raise an empathetic man.” Her son is 4, and “on a day-to-day basis, I just see him as the individual,” she said. “But once in a while, something will, like, trigger me, where I’m like, Oh, shit. Like, yes, it’s, like, this giant responsibility that’s, like, sitting on me to cure the problem of, you know, white men.”…
If you don’t successfully teach your son to respect women, your child runs the risk of being not just a disappointment to his family but a danger to society….
So much of the grief expecting parents feel isn’t tied to having to love and raise a son. It is attached to the loss of a future with a daughter*.
*Dollars to doughnuts, this lady is going to end up transing her son, probably sooner rather than later.

Imagine belonging to an ideological subculture so devoid of decency or shame that you would be willing to put your psychotic misandry out there dressed up as some kind of insightful thinkpiece to rile up your readership into a frenzy of affirmation.
Meanwhile, in Arabia…
Obviously, we all know, thanks to the intrepid work of Slate feminists, that white men are the biggest threat to women’s safety and prosperity everywhere, and that’s why white baby males should be transitioned ASAP out of the womb, if not (preferably) aborted.
Anyway, apropos of nothing, watch this Muslim explain why he would feel compelled, for the sake of “honor,” to murder his sister along with all of his male family if she ever gets out of line and disobeys him.
Killing your sister for disobedience is sometimes required for "honor"
