The Best Time

Woman: Now is the best time in your relationship with your child!

Me (after 3,5 hours at the dentist’s, itching all over, and suffering because of swollen ankles and hands): What do you mean? I can’t say I’m enjoying this “relationship” a whole lot.

Woman: Because while he is inside you, he is all yours. And once he gets out, that’s it, it won’t be perfect any more.

      1. I’ve been told (I am not a mother) that this is a wonderful time. I hope everything works out 🙂

      1. “I got back at her by suggesting it might easily turn out to be a boy”

        I wouldn’t be surprised if that’s more acceptable to her at some murky psychological level.

        After all, if he turns out to be gay then she stays the number one female in his life….Celibate and asexual is best in her worldview but better a boy than a nasty girl whoreslut.

        1. We are a very homophobic culture, so this is never a good alternative. Celibate and asexual is also not entirely perfect. The really ideal state of things is when he has sex once to procreate and never goes back to engaging in this nasty pastime ever again. 🙂
