No, really, Grist GINK (green inclinations, no kids) Lisa Hymas, who constantly advocates for a child free existence, because kids are little carbon footprints and bad for Gaia, really tries this route: Is coming out as childfree like coming out as gay?
As I’ve talked to and read about people coming to terms with their decisions not to have kids, the comparison has come up over and over.
She then pulls some quotes, like
“I felt like a gay person must feel, coming out of the closet and having these people validating me.”
— Jason Gill, quoted in a New York Times Magazine article on the childfree
People are validating you because you decided to not have kids due to a fake issue, globull warming, so, yeah, they are judging you.
Lisa then goes on to list all sorts of things gays and lesbians can do to help them “come out”, which is supposed to help the climate morons come out themselves.
We don’t face all the same challenges, but we childfree could certainly use some advice from our LGBT friends on how to claim our rightful place in society. Whether you’re LGBT or childfree or both, please share coming-out tips below in comments. Also, LGBT folks, do you feel this same pressure to have children?
Personally, I’d like to offer you all the help I can to make this mainstream, with no negative connotations to those Warmists who chose a childfree life. All you climate realists out there, help me getting the word out there that there is nothing wrong or weird with Warmists not having children. In fact, we should pledge ourselves to help all Warmists become GINKs, make this a mainstream mevement. This way, the idiotic anthropogenic warming movement will be eliminated within 20 years, along with a good chunk of those who have liberal leanings, due to them not passing their genes and stupid beliefs on to future generations!
Coming out as a GINK would be coming out as a moron.
You come out as a GINK. Hooray! You’re just like everyone else in your little circle.
20 years from now you’re looking down at your crappy job, no savings, goofy tattoos, 15th ‘life partner’ and wondering why the hell you ever thought this was going to last. Everyone else has moved on to better things in life. You’re stuck hanging out with sixties Liberals, most of them now in diapers and senile asking if Barack Obama just walked by.
hehehehehehee BS.
Hey, I wonder if lil’ Johnny Gill knows what “validating” means.
If he feels validated for coming out, then wouldn’t that be a good thing for him? Meaning he is getting POSITIVE affirmation from his peers?
“pressure to have children”??!?!?!?!?
WHAT THE HELL DOES THAT MEAN??!!?!?!?
I think we should organize a fund, perhaps a UN NGO that will offer free sterilization for these fine citizens. We should encourage them and other like minded souls to join in the no offspring crusade.Yes, that’s it; “Snips for Dips”.
Give a free hemp tote bag and bumper sticker. Darwin would be proud.
Linked you, but it isn’t showing up. This guy is a moron and the world is better off if he doesn’t breed.
