    I was thinking a couple of weeks ago, when I saw some isn’treal article about this same concept, of how would a mother explain this to their kids? You know? How do you tell your kids that they were born from a corpse? For most of us, our parents had a good time, and boom. But for these kids? Somebody had to go jack off a corpse to make a baby postmortem. And as a woman, how do you accept this? How do you sleep at night thinking about getting some corpse cum into you to make a baby?

    ‘‘Mom, where’s my dad?’’

    ‘‘Your dad died in action fighting le ebil asiatic orcs’’

    ‘‘Were you pregnant before he set out?’’

    ''No"

    ‘‘Then how did they make me?’’

    ‘‘Your dad’s warbuddies jacked him off and got his seed’’

    ''So I’m a ‘‘corpse baby’’?

    You know? How else can you put this shit?

      I don’t really think it’s worse than surrogacy, IVF, or a rape victim deciding to keep a child, tbh. seems weirdly regressive to place sacred importance on how someone is conceived.

      that said, I have a date with my beautiful corpse girlfriend

        Hahaha, yeah, I’ve just been sitting on this for some time and wondering how to conceptualize it. I can understand a couple trying to have kids and doing an IVF or surrogacy, or a victim deciding to keep the kid, that’s cool. Sorry if I came off as regressive or puritan on conception, wasn’t aiming for that. But I think what Comrade @AsLeftAsTheyCome@hexbear.net typed beneath here explained best what I was trying to express.

      It’s so deeply deranged that I think they must refuse to acknowledge it. The issues with consent alone are pretty wild. The way these articles frame people knocking themselves up with necro-semen as a “lifeline” to a dead partner is incredibly unhinged. If you’re traumatized by the death of a partner a replacement baby is not a valid solution! Fucks sake.
