Small-Scale Question Sunday for December 28, 2025

Do you have a dumb question that you're kind of embarrassed to ask in the main thread? Is there something you're just not sure about?

This is your opportunity to ask questions. No question too simple or too silly.

Culture war topics are accepted, and proposals for a better intro post are appreciated.

The world must be peopled. Just go forth and multiply, man.

I do agree with the stick in the muds commenters that you won‘t be legally in the clear . But really, the ‚best interest of the child‘ here is to be born, messiness of the world and circumstances notwithstanding.

You want it, the hot bisexual and her wife want it, the kid can be presumed to want it, the rest of the global present and future human population wants it, slam dunk really. Leaves only the minor matter of your wife‘s reluctance. Don‘t have all the details on that, an offering of flowers perhaps?

I do believe she‘s being a tad selfish, but don‘t tell her that in those words. She‘s got her fill of your seed, now she wants to deny it the whole world? And the priests as always are backing up the worst impulses of womanhood.

Dude, while you may be somewhat tongue-in-cheek with your response, things can go south fast where relationships are concerned.

From a job years back working in social housing, did we get to hear some stories about the clients!

For example, here's Ms A and Ms B (not gay married yet, as gay marriage wasn't legal in my country just then). Ms A had been married to a guy, then came out as lesbian down the track and split up. Took up with Ms B and they lived happily as a happy gay couple.

Mr and Mrs C moved in next door and they became friends and all was hunky-dory for a while. Until Mr C ran off with Ms B to Australia, leaving behind Ms A and Mrs C, the aggrieved spouses who had not seen this coming.

Just imagine the mess if a kid had been involved.

Do not encourage this guy to start spreading his seed around because the women of the world deserve to have his babies. It will blow up in his face.

Life is messy, no big deal. Kids aren't that fragile, they'd just go with the flow. I know just as many adults who blame their failures on their still-married parents than on their parents' divorce, and they're all full of shit. If we all wait until the perfect circumstances with the perfect partner and so on, to have kids, we simply won‘t be having enough. And that‘s too bad.

The people who do the best job of keeping the western world peopled, i.e. conservative religious people, are the same to whom all this nonsense is an abomination. For all your fertility edgelording and sneering at priests, the people who listen to the priests are the ones actually having children.
