How many rounds of IVF is the poor pregnant partner, inevitably a cis woman, meant to do? Isn’t IVF infamously fucking gruelling, requiring injections and ending in miscarriages? Is her husband going to make her feel like shit for refusing to make being pregnant her full time job? A massive amount of reproductive labour is just being taken for granted here.
And if these EAers refuse, the reproductive labour just gets passed on to other women. Grimes didn’t want to have another kid with Elon (aren’t they nonbinary? I’m sure it might have caused them dysphoria) so Elon persuaded one of his fucking employees into doing IVF and being their surrogate because it’s important for smart people to have kids. (Source)
