    Many cultures have done shit where kids are raised by all the men mom was fucking through the entire pregnancy.

    yeah, and how many of those guys raised this kid? Oh wait.

    Who tf needs a dad specifically? A good parent is a good parent.

    Are YOU a parent? Because I am, and let me tell you, with TWO people it’s fucking exhausting, let alone doing it alone.

    Again, the point is that 1) The daughter has no sense of identity except for who her dad might be, and she’s going to base her opinion and goals based on whoever he turns out to be, which is weak as shit, and 2) If you’re going to fuck around, at least be a responsible adult about it, which the mother was not. They had the pill and condoms back then, use them for fucks sake.

        No, I never ended up on an island to try to figure out if the woman I banged (and turned out fucked a bunch of other dudes right before/after) gave birth to my daughter or if it was one of the other guys.

          I don’t see the problem with that. Depending on what ‘island’ means, that could be a really nice time. Like, even if its a ‘we must find water’ situation, someone i have fond (if blurry) memories and a little intimacy with is a plus. If it’s a luxury island, i probably want someone confirmed cute around.

          but the idea of her being ‘yours’ is kinda weird, possessive; especially if you didn’t do the work of making the person.

            . Depending on what ‘island’ means

            The island that the topic of this part of the conversation is about, the one that the film “mamma mia” takes place on.

            but the idea of her being ‘yours’ is kinda weird, possessive; especially if you didn’t do the work of making the person.

            it’s a semantic indicator of a relationship of a generic word. Jesus fucking christ, not everything is a freudian slip that indicates someone is a patriachal nazi.

              patriarchal nazi

              Okay but im in america right now so that’s kind of a reasobable null hypothesis.

              island

              Could totally chill there with anyone I’ve ever had sex with who hasn’t already tried to kill me, and sometimes thats pretty fun, so not an absolute deal breaker.

              thing you didn’t say

              Still feels projectiony.
