A GenXer ReClaims WOKE Xplains His Clan & Why Children Aren't Necessary 4 The Already Complete

Bobbleheads with no self-esteem to begin with are once again feeling their oats, casting aspersions, At My People, The Already Complete. The ones with age-appropriate friends who chose them too, who have their own autonomy and a home of their own to live in. The ones who didn't have sad lonely holes to fill or crummy marriages they were desperately trying to save.

To be clear, I am not suggesting this in any way applies to everyone who has children, I'm not even coming for the obnoxious ones, the ones who really are deeply in love with and even actually still like their spouse just effervescing about the joy of bringing a new life into the world with whom they will ecstatically share this love with, who unfortunately just can't shut up about it. I love these people. Can't get enough of em; can't wait to meet the little darlings they will raise, in 20+ years. ツ

No, I'm speaking directly to the losers who seem to think by virtue of procreating, they have somehow been magically elevated above those of us who decided long ago, they weren't just born to perpetuate the species. Ironic really, given generally speaking, the ones who choose to do so most frequently are the ones we'd most prefer would just not at all.

Suddenly having children is the new vegan. Gerbils do it prolifically, and yet there are some among us who believe the simple act of giving birth transforms them into better humans. Beings who have experienced love on a deeper, more profound level than the rest of us: 'You'll never know love like this', people like me, the already complete are told all the time, with an air of pity always in their eyes. It is the new 'Look How Much better I am than you'. Insecure people grasping for some semblance of worth, at our expense: Again, the ones who felt then do not regret now or ever currently living awesome lives Already Complete.

Girls weren't interested in being housewives and ruining their vaginas just to take care of a man too stupid to properly service her now ruined vagina

Women who demanded more of themselves than just keeping a tidy home or deftly bouncing a child on her hip while she dutifully prepared her husband's meals to fully self-actualize. Men who had better things to do than 'settle down' conform or 'Grow Up' (how insulting is it, to actually say that out loud to a grown man?) and be like every other animatron: doing what they're told ~ Always and only what's expected. Diametric in opposition, we are people who had, continue to enjoy lives so exciting we aren't plagued with the ever-growing loudly tock ticking clock driving lesser men & women mad.

The kind who did not have to create a whole living human being capable only of eat sleep cry. That's not love, that's captivity, just so they could tell themselves they had a friend. And of course, cast aspersions at those of us whose lives they can't help but covet (even after they've made their first 'friends' and gotten their personality 'boast'). It's tragic, despite having made their choice, had their little darlings, they still can't seem to stop being envious of us and ours.

You don’t hear much of my tribe because we don’t make a lot of noise. We're happy with our choices. They've left us without the need to tear others down in desperate feeble-minded attempts to feel tall, or just anything at all resembling the self-worth they've clearly read about in books, but will obviously never have, in life. Not this one anyway.

We try not to gloat so don't mention how well our choices seemed to have worked out for us in general. But especially to the ones who appear already so terribly disappointed, so much less satisfied with theirs, by annoyingly insisting unconvincingly how enhanced they've become. Bless Your Heart is all I say with a genuine smile in mi corazon, they don't need to know, real love like this, requires no affirmation or knowledge even of its existence. I've found already my bliss i insist quietly behind lips that are sealed.

It seems almost unkind to share even here, but True Ataraxia has or needs no expression, certainly not in words. The lady doth protest too much, methinks. But that's just me. ツ

All GenX seem to have started out with advantages from birth. And while valid argument can be made for the benefit given simply by the environment within which we were born, we definitely came out of the womb empowered, dukes up ready to take on the world. We were the first (and last) generation to commonly slap the doctor right back following birth. ツ

We are almost delusionally self-confident, smarter, more driven, more singularly focused on the self and being better. We were born near complete. Gifts not endowed naturally from birth already most can well afford to buy. All the wonders of the world even those undiscovered which cannot be acquired we create never take, from nothing. The whole sphere is an oyster, and its treasures are our pearls.

Girls weren't interested in being housewives and ruining their vaginas just to take care of a man too stupid to properly service her now ruined vagina. They wanted to be doctors or lawyers, District Attorneys or maybe even The President. Men too weren't interested in settling down just to maintain the status quo. We moved fast and broke things sure, but we also grew up to change the world.

We weren’t friends with our parents, we made them get their own. We wore the key to our house around our necks and raised ourselves. For the record, if you’ve not yet gleamed, most of us, Are Awesome! Even some of the ones who have kids. ツ

Having children, Doesn't Make You Special, it just makes you a parent. To be a better person, u still have to do the work as well, on U

Unlike the generations who followed, because we never really received, we don't expect admiration or acceptance or even assistance and we certainly don’t need or seek out ever anyone else’s approval. We’re too busy just enjoying our individual serenity while we are Getting Shit Done. And each thing we do, is done well & right, the first time. We give 110% every time. Measure twice, cut once. There are no quitters in my tribe, quiet or otherwise.

Because our parents had lives of their own, they didn’t rush to pick us up every time we sneezed or cried. So, we are especially adept at the art of self-soothing. We are the literal embodiment of sole sufficiency. The first tribe they could not even define with words or a name. All who followed us, are just letters of the alphabet.

We don’t get sick catch colds or have allergies, To Anything because we spent all our free time, every moment we could, outside playing games of make believe with our friends, using at most our hands or simple props we found, all we needed to ignite our fantastical imaginations. Completely unsanitized, we didn’t even wear sunscreen, running around wild, like little lords raw dawging mother nature all willy nilly, from the rising of each new dawn, till the time the streetlights came on at night.

We don’t get triggered or need safe spaces cause we’re fearless and scrappy. No one gave us answers, told us what or how to do things because we didn’t bother to ask. You’re not the boss of me. We figured that shit out on our own.

And we are, as a people, surprisingly kind-hearted and happy. We love ourselves because we are complete, without kids, fully realized. We apologize without hesitation when we err and accept with grace, we are only human. We never forget to say please and thank you, because it is gratitude that keeps you humble, not children. We always 'Do Unto Others' As We Would Have Others Do Unto Us because we know, better than most, to expect respect you must be respectful. But respect U C Must Be Earned. You cannot knowingly disrespect others, without first disrespecting yourself.

You Can Only Transmit What You Are Inside

And we know exactly who we are, so don’t put up with indulge in or abide by the stupid. If you’re too lazy to make the effort to actually be special, don’t bother sharing your pronouns. I can assure you; we won’t be bothered to make the effort either. And if you’re too ugly to pass, you don’t get to use the lady's loo. Use the men’s room like all the other homely chicks. Real Woman already have so few safe spaces.

You don't get to make them uncomfortable, in one of their last remaining, just because your life choices made, aren’t working out like you thought they would. Step off your white male privilege (there are no colored fillies demanding new laws) learn how to be a lady and stop acting like such an entitled dick.

Tolerating the stupid doesn’t make you woke; it just makes you stupid too. And having children, doesn't make you special, it only makes you a parent. It's just a child, not a magical get out of doing the work on U card.

Let's all try and put forth a little more effort toward being kinder, better versions of who we are. Be not just happy with, but have mutual respect for, ourselves each other and our own individual very personal life decisions, shall we? No one is better than the other. Our Body ~ Our Choice The right one is always and only whatever is best for u. Do u boo (is that still a thang) ツ
