"Millennial dads are a force for good, but even we can't breastfeed"

A self-indulgent wankfest about how his wife (that's not very progessive, Dan) giving birth was so terribly stressful to him and how

" During the delivery the midwives let me take a photo of Declan being yanked out, covered in blood and gore. After the nurses took him away again I turned the video into a gif in reverse (the child going back into my wife’s stomach) and sent it to my brother-in-law. I still hadn’t told him my son’s name."

"We’ve been lucky enough to be able to exclusively breastfeed since birth (having been bullied into it by some aggressive midwives) – but because we’ve had issues with expressing, my wife is basically tethered to the child. I can’t get up at night and feed the boy to give her a solid eight hours of sleep and it does get to me. She can’t yet bugger off for a weekend away letting me take the kid. I just can’t be enough of a parent for our child yet.

Would you believe as a straight, white male what has driven me insane is being unable to feed my son. This baby is going to need his mum for at least a while longer. . It seems that despite all the progress of gender equality and being able to flip gender roles on their head, men being unable to lactate may be the final Rubicon to cross. Given we’re close to being able to gestate babies in bags, how far away are we from men being able to chow down on some Pfizer Dadanol and get lactating? Looks like until the Elon Musk of norgs gets on the case, I’m going to continue to be the worse parent."

I'm honestly confused how he overlooks the 'being pregnant and having a uterus' issue in favour of 'omigod it's so terrible my son can't suckle on my moobs'.

The traditional pathways .... are being thrown to the wind by millenials.....
What a fool. It's hungover undergraduate level writing.

er. Sounds to me like he can't wait to get rid of his wife and have the kid all to himself. Like he only married her in order to get kids. What do you want to bet that this guy comes out as trans?

It’s astonishing that such an irritating fellow has a wife.

I know others have mentioned it but it bears repeating.

His wife's brother or his wife's sister's husband?

I wondered that- either way it's more ways wrong than can be counted.

I rarely swear on here but fuck off you utter prick.

If he says "we have mastitis" would anyone blame the wife for thumping him?

I am cringing myself inside out. If DP ever dared to say that 'we' had breastfed our children I would be sorely tempted to lamp him one.
