    I quote vivica a fox in the article using brackets delineated by commas and ending with an ellipsis: << "“In my life, it was career over children. And I never met the man I could have children with. I didn’t.”">>, <<“I almost made that mistake and three months before my family was like, ‘You will not! You absolutely will not,'” she recalled. “I lost a whole bunch of money and deposits and this, that and the third, but I trust my family.”>>, <<“I have six godchildren that when God took away my opportunity to bear children, he sent my godbabies,” she said. “So I’ve got kids!”>> .... The article title is dysfunctional. Vivica a fox , not me, said she chose career over children, meaning what, when she got pregnant she contracepted, before fornication she contracepted so fornication was never procreation. Like many women in the usa, she was pregnant many times i bet, but she contracepted it away, for her career. men has nothing to do with her choice to be career over children. IF she didn't have a relationship with a man that satisfied her financial desires or demands to allow for pregnancy,that has nothing to do with pregnancy. Black women during enslavement had tons of kids, by all sorts of men , as they were owned, if black enslaved women who worked in fields , being whipped and raped daily, can have children , all black women after are lying to themselves using anything as an excuse for not having a child. Her second quote suggests she listens to the people she calls her family, again, another non issue. If she listens to others over her personal life, that is her doing, what do men or babymaking have to do with vivica a fox listen to somebody else over her relationships. LAstly, she spoke about god taking away her ability to have kids, which is a lie, so clearly a part of her regrets listening to family and choosing career over children, thought she accepts it. the christian god, shiva, shakti, yemnyah, quetzecoatl, or similar, do not take away womens ability to bear children, bearing children is a temporary gift from nature, not meant to be forever, so it need to be cherished while you can, the christian bible does say to be fruitful and multiply right?

      Not sure I follow your thoughts on this article. I mean, one can't take snapshot of what someone said and base their feelings of motherhood. There is more context to this and she has spoken out about mental health issues, for example. This seems so linear thinking.
      MY RESPONSE
      good point, I don't know vivica a fox. Moreover, I am not suggesting she is wrong or right. My point was to focus on the disconnect between bearing children and men/family/et cetera. I started off referring to the original article title, which set me off:)

      Ah, I see. That makes sense. True in of itself, the article is disjointed.
      MY RESPONSE
      I admit, I learned of this article from somewhere in the big bad internet and between the title and the comments I felt the need to read the article and realized most of the people who commented didn't read the article. and the article title doesn't do vivica a fox favors, she said why she didn't have children, she chose career over children. She added a comment about men, referring to your point about mental health, which is important, one must come to peace with things. but, the article , from essence magazine, is suggesting falsehood.
