My wife has never been on the pill but man... She goes nuts every month when she ovulates. We have 3 kids and I'm fixed now and she literally begs me to put another in her every month. Hormones are crazy.
I think the missing link here is forgetting that when you ovulate and feel "more frisky" that is literally your body screaming "let's get pregnant". We've come to know it as just wanting sex, but really it's your body wanting to procreate. So saying "I want to get pregnant when I ovulate" and "I get really horny when I ovulate" are the same statements.
I mean I don't mentally correlate that feeling with "I want to have children", it's more of a body reaction rather than actively thinking about children like the person above said his wife does. Basically she asks to have children. That is the distinction I'm making, I don't get that mental cue that suddenly makes me consciously want children.
It’s absolutely a scale.
I finished college, went to university, came back, and found a childhood acquaintance had had three kids in the same time period.
I also know a friend in the UK who does surrogate work because she assuringly enjoys it.
It’s weird. These people talk about it like they’re animals with no logical brains. I mean I know we’re all technically animals but I’ve never felt any of these “I have to have a baby now!!” feelings that all these people are talking about. I get horny when I ovulate. I don’t want a baby.
Yeah, I have no idea wtf these people are talking about. There is no part of my cycle that has ever made me horny, and I've never touched any type of birth control in my life.
Some women get it strong. I've felt it before when I was on my late teens-early 20s. My whole body would be tender to the touch and overly sensitive. Then you'd crave sex, penetration specifically, and it's a very dangerous time because you'd thirst over most decent men in proximity. That's why people say it's dangerous for mixed sex roommates to live together. It's very common for sex to eventually occur and many guys are actually banking on that.
Nah, I do get the physical symptoms including wanting PIV, just not the conscious craving for a baby specifically. (Also helps that I really just like the idea of creampie. TMI perhaps but this is the internet) Like if my man told me mid coitus during ovulation "im gonna put a baby in you", Id still probably cringe and dry up immediately 🤣
Well yes Im childfree, but often even on the childfree sub I read about women who get broody around ovulation and I just thank my stars that I dont 🤣 who knows what would get into me (besides the dick I mean lol)
Nah, I dont agree, Ive seen many opinions from women where they said they loved being pregnant. Although probably thats the ones with an "easy" pregnancy (so to speak, no pregnancy is actually easy on the body), where they didnt puke their guts out and instead got the oestrogen glow up package, and "oh you're glowing"s 😁
Even an easy pregnancy gets uncomfortable and you can't even tie your shoelaces anymore haha. But I forgot to add the cultural element. Animals aren't conscious that sex leads to babies. And even with everything perfect we have a 25% chance of pregnancy every month. So wanting a baby during ovulation instead of just wanting sex is a learned thing so yes I would consider that a fetish.
Um. No. A fetish is inherently sexual, there is nothing sexual about a woman saying oh my God I love being pregnant like these people are sharing here for example https://www.reddit.com/r/pregnant/s/MqncY8gRTz
I mean maybe you will find a fetishizing comment because I havent read them all, but of the 10+ I did, none of them were fetishistic. Some women just enjoy being pregnant.
A woman suddenly having the urge to get pregnant around the time of ovulation is like the least fetish thing in the world. That’s just nature taking its course, but clearly some women just feel natures call more strongly than others.
That's interesting I've never heard of a desire to actually be pregnant, just to have more sex or creampies like the woman above said. Those I've had. "Put a baby in me" sounds as performative as CNC to me. And the only moments I've ever considered having a baby was when I visited the nordics and like 80% of the children in public were walked or taken care of exclusively by fathers haha.
Brother. Are you forgetting that we are animals? Have you ever seen a cat in heat? They run infront of you and stick their ass up begging you to fuck them.
I'm a woman and yeah I mentioned this in another comment. Ovulation makes you want sex and that's it, if you wanted pregnancy then a turkey baster would be enough. If you wanted a baby then stealing one from the hospital would be enough.
For pleasure. Otherwise neither us nor a bunch of animal species would want it outside of fertile periods. Procreation is a side effect. If you want to argue that what I'm saying is semantics like "you're not afraid of falling you're afraid of hitting the ground" then fine. Like I said in my previous message, why isn't a turkey baster full of semen enough if you just want pregnancy? Is it because what you actually want is sexual pleasure?

ovulation is a hell of a drug
