I find the topic of people's children so deeply uninteresting, yet I'm in a meeting where everyone is sharing stories about children. It's really like some people lose their entire identity over time and that's all they talk about 😐
I really blame this more on cishet stuff than anything tbh. You see this loss of identity sometimes with long term couples too and I don't really see that as much with queer people. Vast generalisations, but these are my irl experiences. I can't imagine not wanting to have my own time and do my own things. I appreciate that my partner and I both value that :3
I love children! Most people who talk about their children usually are talking about people you don't know or have any context for but for whatever anecdotes you've heard - I bet you might feel the same way about their mother in laws. Plus a lot of kids have the same stuff happen (oh she drew on a wall, she jumped in a puddle, yadda yadda) Once when a coworkers kid came in to my work for migraines (turns out it was a subarachnoid cyst) then I had more context for her and it was easier to follow and link those stories up. Plus I like kids in the first place so I had a leg up.
