Fertility Vampires: Relationships and Unspoken Desires

Hey Lifers!

If you’ve had a baby, did you talk about what you were thinking of naming the baby when you were pregnant? If so, how did that go for you?
If you don’t like someone else’s name ideas, do you tell them?

We somehow end up talking about robots and AI taking over and we are starting to think that we are living in a black mirror episode!

British pop star Olly Murs recently shared a side-by-side photo of his 12-week fitness transformation ahead of his tour. It sparked an interesting comment section that showed the difference in what men tend to prefer vs what women tend to prefer. We spoke about the female/male gaze, whether we associate certain character traits with certain physiques, health vs aesthetics and how diet culture and marketing has corrupted what we think is ‘ideal’. 

Have you had your fertile years wasted by a fertility vampire? 

Fertility vampires -a term describing men who engage in long-term relationships with women during their prime reproductive years without a genuine commitment to building a future together. 

We unpack:

• Whether a fertility vampire is always deliberately ‘wasting’ someones time, 
• Why ‘wasted time’ is disproportionately felt by women, 
• Whether you can ever make sure you’re fully aligned with someone else’s timelines
• Why it’s not black and white
