Why are girls/women so obsessed with babies?

[Anonymous]

why are girls so obsessed with babies and want to have one or go crazy when they see one?

why do you want to condemn and doom a living person in this hell world

[Anonymous]

stop that right now I always said I wanted a girl in the begining but latter in life and he just ignored it because he to have sex. If I didn't love him I wouldn't of married him he is my whole world I wouldn't want to live without him. we have been together for 8 years and if I didn't love him I would of left him a long time ago. (when I didn't have a kid). When we lived in the car, then his moms, when I got a broken wrist that he did aciddently and when we got kicked out again and just mostly went through hell together. I'm sorry I had my son and not a girl because wouldn't be so bitchy if it was a girl he would still but lesser. he is enough for me I would never leave him ever, I beleave this man has a reason for hating kids I really wish I could find out why. I know he likes little girls is because I have seen him play around with a four and two year old and a neice that's 14 years old he likes too. Sorry when I seen him play with them it was like I was looking at a new peson and I fell even more in love with him.

Also its just the baby stage that he don't like maybe he will give him a chance when he is older get him intrested in things that my husband liked and still likes. Like my husbend loved his dad he was there when his dad worked on cars and he had the same intrestes in electronics trying to fix things. Stuff like that when his son gets older he could do together. I just wish he would try to be OK with it for now and stop hating me for it. To me it seems like he's trying to puss me away like he wants a devorse and I never want that but if he hates me so much and tells me he don't want me or love me anymore then he sould do it (because I wont) so I don't ruin his life anymore. :(

I'm sorry that I like people I alway want attention its who I am and I was lonely and didn't have anyone around because stupid work places wouldn't hire me. I was left a alone when my husband had to work and it was vary boaring and I slept all the time because of my stupid diabetes don't let me have any energy. I forgot to take my pills for 3 days and yes I didn't say anything because I thought for being on them for 6 years I would still be protected and I was wrong. I love my husband even thow he hates me for what I did if he were a girl he would understand. Men don't have the same emotions as a girl expecally when they see something inside growing. I wish men could get pregnet and find out what its all about lol. I was rasied diffrent than him to care for people not hate them and condem them to death just because they came into this world. I don't beleave just because your a woman that you sould have a kid ether.

People (especially women, but men too) are hardwired to find babies cute and to want to care for them. It's part of procreation and our drive to populate the species. If we didn't have those instincts, significantly fewer babies would survive, because we wouldn't be as invested in them. Babies require an enormous amount of care and protection- if we didn't have an automatic desire to give them what they need, we wouldn't see the point in letting them suck on our boobs or preventing them from getting eaten by lions.

However, while I find babies as adorable as anyone does, I'm definitely not obsessed with them and I'm in no rush to have any of my own.

[xguitarscen3girlx]

I don't want kids. I don't dislike kids, but I wouldn't want to have any. Least not yet. Infact having a kid scares the Sh** out of me lol I know some other girls who don't want any kids yet either so its not just a girlie thing. You want cute get a kitten lol Also I've met guys who do want kids and wanting a family with the girl their with...so I guess it depends on the person really. I don't think anyone should be having kids unless their ready. I hate some girls who want kids when too young for it or are always wanting it with the guy there with when he's not ready.

[bellybuttonlint]

Thankfully kids grow up, that way the women don't want to have too many of them. If kids stayed cute all the time I'm not even sure if I could walk the streets without having a kid touch me.

I think some girls view this the wrong way...it is a generalization, but not a specification to each women. Even the girls in here know that the majority of women love kids because they're "cute."

[kataloso]

I'll take a wild guess at this and say that maybe it's due to the fact that procreation is a natural instinctual thing for females of all kinds, which maintains the life cycle of all species.

But it could just be a result of TV commercials with cute babies too.

[CuddlyCarla]

First of all, they aren't all obsessed, some of them are. This is 2012, women have choices now, and a lot of women don't have children and that's OK. Second, it's biological and internal - we have monthly periods that are painful and terrible and remind us that the clock is ticking away and that we're supposed to reproduce. Some choose to, some don't, but most women (even many who choose not to have a baby) have a maternal instinct which is biological. We evolved that way because if we didn't, there would be no babies, and none of us would exist. Nature requires that we have a desire to produce a child, similarly, many men feel a strong need to be fathers and feel protectiveness around young. This is what has kept our species alive for thousands of years, so it isn't just something that can be turned off. Babies even have features designed for attention and nurturing, i.e. large eyes and "cute" features evolved so humans want to care for them. You can't take the human out of humans.

[MrOracle]

Correct! It's a biological instinct. Those who didn't have it didn't reproduce, so their genes died out in favor of those who DID have this instinct. That's Natural Selection at work.

[loveisbeautiful]

I love babies and I want babies, they're just so cute, sweet, innocent and they make this

crazy world tolerable to live in.

Am I mildley obsessed with them yes, but I'm not gonna go chasing some poor woman down

and ask her if I can hold her baby, because it's so cute. Nor am I gonna tackle some poor

unsespecting man to the ground and say " let's make a baby, strange guy I don't know!" It's

a healthy obsession and I'm not gonna apologize for wanting children anymore then I'm gonna

apologize for wantting to fall in love and get married! It's what I see me having in the future.

Although, after seeing how many women hate babies I kind of feel like a freak of nature,

but I've always been a misfit in this world, I guess this isn't any different. Oh, well!

[lonlybabywolf]

dont worrie I am feeling that now to I just had a baby with this man and he hates me for it because I missed a week of pills and got pregnet so he never wanted kids inless he has the money or ready I really am sorry for that I found out I was pregnet and it was 8 weeks along already I didn't want to abort it because it was my first.

[Anonymous]

I don't like kids or babies much... especially bawling ones. Sure, some of them appear adorable but I would prefer to smile at them from afar. I know one day I'll end up inevitably having one but that day can wait forever as far as I am concerned.

So, no.. not all of us are obsessed with babies or go crazy when we see one.

[lonlybabywolf]

thats what they do they cry because they can't do thing for thmselfs yet but ya when the time comes then it will be a good experience for you the crying only lasts as long as you ignor what the baby wants.

[kereru]

i admit, when a baby smiles at me my heart turns to mushy goo, but I've spent three years as a nanny, I'm under delusions about what its like to raise kids, and am definitely in no hurry to have any of my own.

[Anonymous]

stop thinking I'm obsessed I'm not. Now my cusin betty that's obsessed she has 7 and I don't know when she is done lol I just wanted a girl sorry honey I wish I could do something to make it up to you but I can't make are son back into sperm lol.

[Asker]

you should have known better when your man said he NEVER wanted kids, or you should of never gone out with him/married him just to use him for one ... and just because your a female that's married doesn't mean you are mandated to have to have a kid, ether way... yes I know the whole story ... don't blame him for it ... blame yourself ...cuz your hubby wasn't enough for you to have ... and sorry your hubby who treated you right wasn't YOUR real love in your life

[tonsilla]

biology..

normaly I am OK with them but I can't stand people going up to them and talking retarded baby talk. I am definitely not obsessed with them. babies, so what?

[lonlybabywolf]

I know what you mean its a person trying to learn and talking baby talk just confuses them thow after my family started I did.

[MissLeslie]

I am not obsessed with them. I just like seeing them because they are so darn cute.

[Anonymous]

Women have something called a biologicial clock that is ticking and besides if you were a women wouldn't you find babies cute if one smiled at you? Most girls do go gaga over them cause babies have that innocence to them that makesthem adorable when little. As babies grow up they require more attention and it does take a tole one a person both physically and emotionally. I am also sure that not every single girl wants children. I know I don't at the moment but that could change in the future.

[kereru]

As they grow up they require more attention?

No, my friend, nothing requires more attention than a baby, we're talking about a creature that can't even eat or burp by itself.

[Anonymous]

personally, I hate kids and since this world is going down hill, unless we get on an up hill slope and a better economy I will NOT bring a baby into this world, so not every girl is obsessed with kids you have got it wrong

[lonlybabywolf]

then don't have sex because there are some out there that have them accedently.

[Opinion Owner]

ive only had sex with one guy and he got surgery so he can't have kids anymore.. you don't have to worry I'm not stupid..

[sweet_18]

I'm not obsessed with babies. I dislike babysitting and if you give me a baby I won't know what to do with it or how to hold it and I"ll probably think it doesn't like me. But yeah babies are cute, won't deny it. It's a universal truth

[lonlybabywolf]

You say that because you don't have one when or if you do there is a mother instinct that kicks in also have family help you I didn't know how to do things ether but I figured that out when I had my son.

[SilentEarth]

I want at least 5! :D Condemn them? No, they'll have a better life than I had and help put this world straight.

[lonlybabywolf]

Amen to that

[Anonymous]

babies are cute. but then they grow up and become annoying.

i wouldn't want any children though.

they're annoying.

if it were up to me, I'd get my entire reproductive organ removed. ha ha :D

[BobBobinson]

Well, you can, it's called a hysterectomy...

[Opinion Owner]

Really?

I shall look into that :D

[lonlybabywolf]

how old are u? Yes you can get that done but it depends if the doctor will let you. You might have to have one first(like if you want to cut your tubs) or it has to be a danger to your lifel. if you do your sex drive will start to change and go away. you will end up geting a beard because your hormones will be confused. Good luck with that.

[ManaX]

I don't obsess over them, most of the time they annoy me, unless they're doing something cute.

[_lightness_]

I like babies, they're fun to play with and it's nice to give them back to their parents when they get annoying. I don't want a baby at all.

[lonlybabywolf]

It depends on how old you are you may not be ready to have a kid but latter down the road you see familys all over and you get to thinking what if and then other times it just happends and you have the choice to keep it, give it up for adoption, or abot it if you are cold hearted. my choice is keep it if its formed because if you give it away you don't know if that person maybe worse then you would be.

[sammy_31]

Babies are adorable but I'm not obsessed.

I can handle babies very well. Love 'em.

Mother instincts? lol Idk, even though I'm not a mom yet.

[hot_princess7]

erm.

its called species survival instinct.

also, go hug someone.

[xzinax2]

they're cute,but I don't want them. I'm not even near being obsessed with them

[lonlybabywolf]

It depends on how old you are you may not be ready to have a kid but latter down the road you see familys all over and you get to thinking what if and then other times it just happends and you have the choice to keep it, give it up for adoption, or abot it if you are cold hearted. my choice is keep it if its formed because if you give it away you don't know if that person maybe worse then you would be.

[xzinax2]

i have reasons for not wanting to have children-reasons that will remain constant throughout my life-i am maternal,i like taking care of living beings-but I don't want to have children. and abortion is just as cold hearted as cracking an egg-in other words-it isn't-there is no baby at the point that abortions are done-just an itty bitty parasite.

[Misty_04]

Yeah...I'm really not. I do not want anything to do with them.

[lonlybabywolf]

It depends on how old you are. you may not be ready to have a kid. Other times it just happends unespectedly what would you do then. You can choice to keep it, give it up for adoption, or abort it if you are cold hearted. my choice is keep it if its formed because if you give it away you don't know if that person maybe more worse then you would be. thow even latter down the road you see familys all over and you get to thinking what if that's what happened to me.

[Misty_04]

I'm nearly 21. Trust me when I say I have never been interested, nor will I ever be. I use implanon which is an extremely effective birt control and if I was by some far off chance pregnant then I would absolutely 100% get an abortion and move on with my life. It doesn't make me cold hearted, it makes me smart and able to think for myself.

[xobrowneyedbeauty]

they're just so tiny and adorable! what's not to love? (when they aren't screaming that is)

[xobrowneyedbeauty]

oh but I'm not obsessed with having one! I like looking at them ha ha I am in no way ready to have one. I think I would be a terrible mother!

[LoveLayne]

Babies are so adorable (: Definitely not obsessed, but that are so chuchy!

[lonlybabywolf]

thats funny but also not sence I just herd on Facebook a peson mutilated her 3 month old baby by eating the towes off and eating some of the brians it makes me sick yuck!
