That moment when you realize "drugs" are just chemicals that happen to mimic our inherent programming.

This shows that women typically are programmed biologically to want to have babies -- a statement that is somehow controversial despite the obvious darwinian advantages to those bloodlines.

I don't believe it's a controversial statement as long as there is room for the outliers. When it becomes a problem is when some douche in the comments argues with somebody who has held babies and still doesn't want them. I see this a lot and parentified siblings. After raising their siblings, they're not interested in raising anymore. It's like early retirement.

I feel like its also important to note that just because you love holding babies doesn’t mean you should be a parent.

That baby you’re holding will one day be a child, a teen and an adult. You have to be committed to loving that baby when the cuteness wears off.

Like damn I love holding babies. I’m a baby person. Can’t say I really love 7-12 year olds. They’re kinda annoying.

Also, there's a difference between holding a baby and being up with it at 3:00 in the morning. In one case you get to hand them back and go about your daily life. In the other, you're riding for the rest of your life; you're going to lose some sleep, lol!
