“Babies are actually parasites scientifically speaking.”
That’s more emotionally speaking. The definition of a parasite, as opposed to a symbiotic relationship, is whether the host gets anything back. Some of us enjoy what we get from our kids, so it’s not scientifically a parasite.
“When conception occurs, the sperm part that's now fused with the egg”
If they’re fused, there’s no sperm part any more.
“ wants to develop as much as it can even at the mothers expense,”
Yes, there are risks from pregnancy.
“so it burrows deep inside, trying to get to her vital organs and arteries.”
I think I’ve seen that movie. At a drive-through IIRC. Gore all OVER the screen…
Not a good thing to watch during the Biology unit of 10th Grade General Science….
“The egg side that belongs to the mother”
The whole thing belongs to the mother, dear. The whole thing is an egg. it’s now a fertilized egg.
“ doesn't however, it forms a lining and a uterus to protect the mother from the parasite trying to burrow into her vital organs and suck out her blood.”
What is this burrowing function you’re so obsessed with?
And the fetus does not suck mom’s blood. Nutrients are transferred out of her blood and into the fetus’.
“The placenta forms in the uterus which keeps the parasite contained to prevent it from killing the mother.”
That’s not the purpose or the function, but also it’s not always the result, sadly.
This is just bad fanfic of What to Expect When You're Expecting.
“It's called intraspecific parasitism.”
Only by self-centered morons.
Look, you don’t want a kid, more power to you. I will support that choice as your choice to the very end.
Just don’t pretend your fear of pregnancy is scientifically supported.
