ZIMDRILL:
you missed my point and failed to see that i was responding to someone, not directly to the thread

Magnoliaa:


This is an example of a sentence from the online Cambridge dictionary.

This is 'sacrifice' used to refer to a free time. It is not only a word used in a religious or ritualistic sense.

To give something in exchange for something else or to give up something for the sake of another (thing) is sacrificial.

Magnoliaa:


What's this nonsense??

Did you not quote me? Abeg, get this shìt off the road.

Mtcheeeewwww.

ZIMDRILL:
your point ? are you saying women are sacrificing her time to give birth ? when herself whats kids too ?

My question reminds if the woman also wants children, what has she exchange for ? to give time to have kids ? when she also wants children

Magnoliaa:


My point is as clear as daylight.


You can sacrifice something (a body and a life potentially, in this case) even for something you want and desire.


There is no where in the definition of sacrifice that says that it has to be for something unwanted. You can make a sacrifice for something you wish for.

If you do not get this, I'm sorry I can't help you no more.

Have a good day.

Magnoliaa:


If you don't believe it, show your own true stats?

And tell me what job on earth is far more risky than giving birth to a child, and how many deaths occur with it. You claimed it, should it be hard to defend?

Magnoliaa:


And this is not even considering how common oil rig workers are.

I am not even a versed researcher or anything like that, but common sense tells me, upon seeing this comment, to ask how many pregnant women are there in a population vs. how many oil rig workers are in the same population?

Look around you. Are there not always more pregnant women to husbands with ordinary jobs? How many women are married to (or dating) soldiers? How many women are married to (or dating) firefighters? How many women are married to paramilitary men? And the most of these women will get pregnant multiple times and give birth.


It is also very TELLING, bloody telling that you guys will always bring the most extreme and "fringiest" of masculine jobs to counter anything about women biologically.

Nah, we are it, abeg.

We are it. You mean you looked around you, you couldn't find any ordinary thing simple men do to cancel out the very wondrous, follow-come ability I have as a woman, except you go farther away to bring up firefighters?


That is an indirect admission of how serious pregnancy is, if you don't know, and it automatically negates any downplaying you might be attempting to do.

BRATISLAVA:
Lol.

You can't win with them. How is child birth the same thing as working a rig? How? Only in the minds of misogynists are these things possible. There's nothing to compare it to, but it won't stop them from trying to denigrate it. If you compare earning money to begging, they will complain.

Breast envy or wizardry

Magnoliaa:


And womb envy as well, in this case. 🤣🤣


That one I know.
