Yes, this is real.

Yes, this sort of thing is celebrated as "progress."

So this lady is a famous supermodel and she's pregnant. She did an interview with Vogue (which we won't link to because it features mostly pictures of her half-naked) titled, "Emily Ratajkowski on Pregnancy and Why She Doesn't Want to Reveal the Gender of Her Baby."

Ready? Here's how it starts out:

WHEN MY HUSBAND AND I tell friends that I'm pregnant, their first question after "Congratulations" is almost always "Do you know what you want?" We like to respond that we won't know the gender until our child is 18 and that they'll let us know then. Everyone laughs at this. There is a truth to our line, though, one that hints at possibilities that are much more complex than whatever genitalia our child might be born with: the truth that we ultimately have no idea who—rather than what—is growing inside my belly...

I like the idea of forcing as few gender stereotypes on my child as possible. But no matter how progressive I may hope to be, I understand the desire to know the gender of our fetus; it feels like the first real opportunity to glimpse who they might be.

Yes, she said her child will let her know his or her gender when he or she is 18 years old. You just read that.

Yes, she referred to her unborn child as HER FETUS! You just read that.

Some more gems from this postmodern dumpster fire of an an interview:

My husband likes to say that "we're pregnant." I tell him that while the sentiment is sweet, it's not entirely true. I resent that his entire family's DNA is inside of me but that my DNA is not inside him. "It just seems unfair," I say.

😭

I think about my husband and what a son would bring up for him. Is he secretly yearning for a boy? When I ask him, he refuses to give me an answer, swearing that he doesn't have a preference. But one Sunday as he's watching football he makes a remark about how it'd be fun to have a little boy to watch with.

"Girls watch football too!" I shoot back.

Ah yes, NEVER say any sort of oppressively sexist statement such as "men like contact sports more than women do."

Give me a break.

I'm scared of having a son too, although not in the same way. I've known far too many white men who move through the world unaware of their privilege, and I've been traumatized by many of my experiences with them.

Vogue even used that one as a pull quote and blew it up real big 😂

How twisted and demented is this? How horrific to say such a thing about your own child?

Get ready for this one:

My friend who is the mother to a three-year-old boy tells me that she didn't think she cared about gender until her doctor broke the news that she was having a son. She burst into tears in her office. "And then I continued to cry for a whole month," she says matter-of-factly. After a difficult birth experience, she developed postpartum depression and decided that she resented her husband more than she'd ever imagined possible. She told me she particularly hated—and she made an actual, physical list that she kept in her journal, editing it daily—how peacefully he slept. "There is nothing worse than the undisturbed sleep of a white man in a patriarchal world." She shakes her head. "It was hard to come to terms with the fact that I was bringing yet another white man into the world."

Imagine hating yourself and your family that much. "It was hard to come to terms with the fact that I was bringing yet another white man into the world." Absolutely unbelievable.

Ladies and gentlemen, let this be your daily reminder that Marxism is a cancer.

That is all.
