      "I thought about having people's babies as a way to test myself, my level of attraction, commitment, and intention." Sounds like a solid metric to me. If I wouldn't want them to be around my child, I probably don't like them enough.

      "There is no right choice. There is just the choice you made and, on the other side, the absolute unknown."

      "I couldn't expect a man to carry an equal share of the discomfort, the misery, the weight. I couldn't lie back and assume he had it covered: I had to be the backstop, the sensible one, the person who carried the can." So much fear and responsibility has been instilled in women, even from such a young age. How do you get out of it?
