She's right babies are smelly, time-sucking, demanding and constantly needy--why is this controversial? And what's worse is that most grow into bratty, annoying children with nothing good to say.
I didn't even like kids when I was a kid, they all insisted on acting so childish.
I am the mother of two. I am not crazy about babies and could not wait until my own became "real" people, and not just demanding lumps in a crib.
I honestly preferred them as TEENAGERS than infants. I guess I am a HORRIBLE mother. If you are that obsessed with babies, go buy a DOLL. It will always be a baby.
Marcotte, a hardcore leftist who hates babies says how she feels. Read the article for context.

Or you could be like the Duggars on TLC and just keep pumping them out so you'll always have a baby around.
I bet at some point you recoiled a bit, even if you don’t want to have recoiled a bit. *Don’t I sound*selfish?*Hedonistic? Isn’t there something very*unfeminine about my*bluntness*here? Hell, I’m performing against gender norms so hard that even I recoil a little. This is actually what I think, and I feel zero guilt about it, but I know that saying so out loud will cause people to want to hit me with the Bad Woman ruler, and that causes a little dread.
No amount of context changes the fact that what she said were her personal convictions. She confirmed it explicitly.

Funniest part is that, taking in beach bums, welfare queens, occupy-whatever hippies, Hollywood stars, pot heads, incarcerated felons, and leftist cocktail party hounds, Marcotte has given an exact description of mainstream Democrat activists!
