- silverquiet 2y agoI'm surprised by that as well, though speaking as a man, I much prefer my part in the reproductive process; squeezing an infant's head out of any part of my body or getting gutted by a surgeon does not look enticing. One interesting thing I learned though - when men think of children, they imagine them around four or five, but women tend to think of them around a year old (and again this tracks with my experience), which does make me think women "want babies".
