Lol, thathappened indeed!

> Everything packaged in the same soft, pale pastel colors women choose for lingerie when the male gaze is subtracted from the equation.

That's your male gaze, right there. Also fuck off.

> If masculine displays of overt horniness have always been more celebrated than their feminine counterparts, the mommy vs. daddy dirty-talk dichotomy only heightens that disparity.

You fight that sexism, you! But also, what a confused idea. Among people who like that shit, the person saying 'daddy' tends to be characterised as feminine. People normally think of some creepy guy soliciting a dominatrix when they think of someone using 'mommy' in a sexual context. Sounds like a 'masculine display of overt horniness' to me. So the conclusion doesn't follow from the premises.

> Why, whenever she proclaimed her desire for motherhood, did people point her to a political movement that had banked thirty years making it clear that it didn’t want her around?

Because 1) that desire is nuts and based on your fetish, and 2) they're hoping you get the message, would be my guess.

And yes, how very dare the woman who actually gives birth to the child have more of a say than the random unrelated guy that's hanging around hating women and getting hard when he sees maternity-wear. Truly, a scandal.
