"We're trying for a baby" is sexually graphic, and disgusting

Grow up love, your dad shot a fucking red hot load into your mum and thats why you're here. 21st century ridiculousness. Very unpopular opinion have an upvote.

This is a truly US level of being uncomfortable with the basic fact of life.

Bro, how do you think human life works? This is natural, sorry you are sensitive by very tame terminology. Perhaps you should talk to someone about why a necessary natural process causes you so much turmoil. I get that this is a workplace but is it too much to ask to allow for some personal freedom rather than sitting quietly working as a bot all day for your corporate overlords?

"I'm going to the bathroom" is sexually graphic, and disgusting.

It means ejecting urine and or feces from the body and it finishes in the toilet.

It should not be tolerated at the workplace. I'm forced to listen to this rhetoric because my shift isn't done yet, and I can't leave without getting fired. I'm forced into a sexual discussion without consent, and it's so graphically disgusting that I feel nauseous.

I am very happy to see, reading the responses, that this is indeed an unpopular opinion. You sound quite squeamish and prudish. The couple is already presumably having sex, why in the world does it bother you that they acknowledge (with a completely not graphic euphemistic comment) that they want a baby? It's not a sexual comment.

Upvoted for unpopularity.

Fantastic unpopular opinion. Post is work of a scholar.

No offense, but there is a point at which others aren't at fault and the behavior you're asking of them is ridiculous.

Why are kids these days such prudes? How do you think you got here lol.

Even the Victorian era thinks you might be a prude.

Ridiculous ... but certainly unpopular, take an upvote.

Graphic ? meaning you're picturing it mentally ? that's you lacking control over your own brain

You are definitionally wrong. A graphic description means, "Describing or depicting in vivid and realistic detail." Saying, "We're trying for a baby," would be considered euphemistically sexual at best. A graphically sexual description would be something like, I don't know..."having bareback sex and the man orgasms while inside her."

OP does not know what "sexually graphic" means.

Honestly, you might need therapy. But definitely an unpopular opinion, I'll give you that.

If I were to tell you that I have 3 kids, would you also be disgusted that I've had vaginal sex at least 3 times? Or is that somehow different?

Unpopular opinion for sure, but one built on immaturity and inability to reason as an adult.

If you were in an office and someone says that they are dropping loads in their wife, yea, that's fucked up and significantly different from saying that they're trying to have a child.

It means they’re having bareback sex and the man orgasms while inside her.

Did you just find this out? Welcome to humanity. Every human being around you also farts, shits, and pisses too. That means if they excuse themselves to go to the bathroom that they very well may be creating a devastatingly disgusting mountain of shit covered in blood and bowel mucus that would humble Shrek himself. Does that mean someone excusing themselves to the bathroom is disgusting too?

You are focusing on .000000001% of what actually "trying for a baby" entails. It's not just the act of sex. It's the acceptance of two loving people that they are attempting to change their lives forever and be responsible for a child. It's letting other people know that a life change is coming and expect an emotional roller coaster. For YOU to focus on the sex aspect is actually kind of weird.

This must be an American.

I'm so sorry to be the one to tell you this, but people are having sex all the time. I know it may be a shock, but the truth is stranger than fiction! In fact, and this is truly reprehensible, even animals are doing it. But no one should be allowed to reference it and we should all consider it gross. That makes sense.

It's part of life. Like, literally. That's how this all works. Best to get used to the concept.

You're broken.

It might be a cultural thing, but where I live, people usually don't talk about it at work until the pregnancy has been successfully confirmed, in order to avoid the uncomfortable talks that a potential unsuccessful pregnancy would result in.

The only ones who talk about trying are often the ones who have difficulties with it. They could be getting a baby through insemination or fertility treatment and need time off for that etc.

OP is definitely a virgin, and very likely an incel. Also a high chance that OP is gay. It's okay, you can come out of the closet.

Hahahahaha. I often imagine other people having sex. It's sometimes hilarious. Nobody can stop me.

Also some people get pregnant other ways. They could be referring to in vitro or related procedures. For those people it can be very difficult and expensive. Be more positive and supportive of other people's hopes and dreams, or at least be neutral.

Had a colleague who said that he's disgusted when another colleague talks about his boyfriend. He advocated it basically because he was imagining anal sex between them all the time.

Three years later, these colleagues are boyfriends 💞💞💞

Sounds like something Hank Hill would get upset about.

"I'm going to go number 2" - Disgusting and graphic.

People also say this when they are doing IVF and other fertility treatments. In fact every time I have heard this it involved fertility treatment because otherwise they just announce they are expecting.

It means they’re having bareback sex and the man orgasms while inside her.

Most of the time announcing a pregnancy or even just seeing kids at the park also means someone had sweaty bareback sex. Is it only bad when they announce it before the pregnancy?

What if they are trying to have a baby through in vitro fertilization? Your mind is what’s immediately going to sex. If someone is being more graphic in their description and talking about raw dogging and how often, then I think you have a case.

I don’t want to hear about people trying for kids either but I personally don’t care and just don’t engage in the conversation.

This, folks, is a perfect example of projection. OP is a gay man and has worried that others judge him for his preference, so he judges others for the same thing.

The healthy thing of course would be to learn to let it roll off his back, and in calming that, he would calm his own worry about others judging him.

“I put a thick load in my wife last night”

“My husband cums inside me all the time now”

I think these are way worse

I don't think the statement is bad, but I can see why many wouldn't want to hear it in detail.

Yeah, no one needs to know your fella is rawdogging you regularly. Telling us when you're actually pregnant makes more sense.

Yeah... Personally, I'd rather hear that a couple is trying for a baby over the bigoted shit I usually hear at work.

op doesnt seem to get any

It's not that crazy, but it's a little uncomfortable to basically just be told that 2 people are rawdogging. It's nowhere near nausea inducing, and it's not really a sexual discussion. Would I rather not hear it? Of course. Is it that bad? Not really.

I would also jump to the first conclusion that OP is oversexualizing stuff, but on the other hand, there are many other ways to give the information which doesn't induce pictures in brains od people who are very visually oriented. "We hope/plan to have kids in the near future/soon/within a year or two".

Same as we don't need to know people have blasting diarrhea, enough to say they have digestive problems or stomach pain.

If someone uses that occasion to turn to you and ask if you’re ever going to have a kid, just respond with “not unless I’ve got ovaries on my tonsils!” And then somehow that’s a visit with HR.

Could go even further and announce you're practicing how it's done. Even without trying for a baby. And like you're constantly getting better... Or lost 2 pounds due to the additional workout...

THANK GOD someone else thinks this. I don't want to hear this at all. Ever.

i downvoted because I agree !

here's the thing i don't know if many consider: being able to announce to an entire room full of strangers that you are having unprotected penetrative vaginal sex for the purpose of procreation is a unique experience only straight people are allowed to have. if i, as a gay person, merely make mention of my same-sex love life it may be seen as me "shoving it in everyone's faces" or "inappropriate," because the sex i have is pointless and therefore not worthy of the same kind of social acknowledgment. it's frustrating to hear straight people say shit like "yeah we're trying for a baby" because all i want to do is tell people i'm going to spend the weekend cuddled up with my boyfriend and i often can't.
