The man is a genius. There’s not to many around and he can more than afford it.

Why does he want so many children is the question I'm interested in.
I can believe many women would not mind having his baby with all the financial gains to be had but what's his issue?

To spread his above average genius around

Devianinc · 16/02/2025 01:57

Ummm, bc he’s a bazillionaire.

SD1978 · 16/02/2025 01:56

It's not weird, it's sex/ procreation for money. He's fecking loaded, they want that lifestyle. There are always women who will take that for confirmed financial security for life.

Isn't he one of those "supersperm" men, those ones that have such a high opinion of themselves that they truly believe the world will benefit from having as many people as possible in it with their genes?

He's a thoroughgoing wrong 'un.

Not the point of this thread, I know.

I think he's like one of the twits, but modern version:
"If a person has ugly thoughts, it begins to show on the face. And when that person has ugly thoughts every day, every week, every year, the face gets uglier and uglier until it gets so ugly you can hardly bear to look at it."
Elon Musk to a tee. His kids don’t look that way because they're not decades into being an ugly person on the inside.

Going to be some mucked up kids

How does the richest man in the world convince women to give him their eggs? 🤔

LocalHobo · 16/02/2025 01:18

They will probably have make pattern baldness though. His hair was A LOT thinner when he was younger.

This is more likely to be influenced by maternal genetics.

"If you’re a man, you got your X chromosome — which either has or does not have the variation of this gene that promotes baldness — solely from your mother. There’s a fifty percent chance that she in turn got it from her father — so if your maternal grandfather had the X chromosome genes for baldness, there’s at least a fifty percent chance you do too."

Prostituting your DNA to a man with a terrible face who is known for aggressively fighting for custody of his kids? It's weird.

Musk has clearly had some sort of face lift type procedure. All his features look like they've been stretched far too tight. In pictures from a few years ago his face was hardly terrible. He was a very rich, morally bankrupt Mr Average. Those features are the ones his kids will get, rather than his current angry angler fish face. They will probably have make pattern baldness though. His hair was A LOT thinner when he was younger.

I think it is money first, then fame and legacy. Anything for some to think they are going to change the norm, that they are above and ahead of the ordinary.

They look like generic small children dressed expensively they don't really have features yet but doubt they'll be attractive adults

They're going to be perfectly nice looking adults. I've seen plenty of much less attractive children around and plenty of much uglier men than Elon Musk who manage to persuade women to have children with them.
There are many many women who do many things others wouldn't when $$$$ are offered by one of the most powerful men in the world.

MuddyPawsIndoors · 16/02/2025 00:52

I mean they look ok to me? 😳

Here

MuddyPawsIndoors · 16/02/2025 00:51

Am I missing something?

He already has many lovely looking children with fully formed features 😳

His face is unappealing because he is unappealing. I think his ugly personality comes through. His children could look lovely and its mean spirited to say they won't

What are you talking about?

He has lots of children, aged from adults right down to very young?

I've just Googled them because of this thread.

Everythingisnumbersnow · 16/02/2025 00:40

MuddyPawsIndoors · 16/02/2025 00:39

And yet if you look at the photos of the kids he's fathered, they all look lovely?

Because your kid's face would be influenced by his face obviously.

Who cares? Stop giving that waste of space air time. The women who agree to having children with him, are fucking stupid.

I very much doubt the eggs are donated. Most eggs are sold and, given that they gloss over both the potentially fatal complications and the lack of research in to the long term effects of egg donation, should not be legal.

They are presumably the eggs of the purported mothers who gave them to the process for mixing with his sperm?

Vom!

I'm not sure what his face has to do with it?

But as you know, there's always an endless supply of people willing to do anything for money.

Money. Sadly. Lots of women do stupid stuff because of greed. Its like kanye west's wife... theres no evidence she is vulnerable or coerced. People do stupid and morally dubious stuff for fame and money.

Soon to be ex-wife taking a bunch of money with her, apparently.
