Unpopular Opinion

You're broken.

You are definitionally wrong. A graphic description means, "Describing or depicting in vivid and realistic detail." Saying, "We're trying for a baby," would be considered euphemistically sexual at best. A graphically sexual description would be something like, I don't know..."having bareback sex and the man orgasms while inside her."

i downvoted because I agree !

It might be a cultural thing, but where I live, people usually don't talk about it at work until the pregnancy has been successfully confirmed, in order to avoid the uncomfortable talks that a potential unsuccessful pregnancy would result in.

The only ones who talk about trying are often the ones who have difficulties with it. They could be getting a baby through insemination or fertility treatment and need time off for that etc.

Graphic ? meaning you're picturing it mentally ? that's you lacking control over your own brain

Hahahahaha. I often imagine other people having sex. It's sometimes hilarious. Nobody can stop me.

Also some people get pregnant other ways. They could be referring to in vitro or related procedures. For those people it can be very difficult and expensive. Be more positive and supportive of other people's hopes and dreams, or at least be neutral.

This must be an American.

The replies are just sad... I do agree that the meaning of "We are trying for a baby" is inherently a sexually explicit term and some people might not like it and it should be accepted I don't know why people in the replies have a problem with that. 🤷‍♀️

Grow up love, your dad shot a fucking red hot load into your mum and thats why you're here. 21st century ridiculousness. Very unpopular opinion have an upvote.

Why are kids these days such prudes? How do you think you got here lol.

op doesnt seem to get any

I am very happy to see, reading the responses, that this is indeed an unpopular opinion. You sound quite squeamish and prudish. The couple is already presumably having sex, why in the world does it bother you that they acknowledge (with a completely not graphic euphemistic comment) that they want a baby? It's not a sexual comment.

Upvoted for unpopularity.

The phrase "we're trying for a baby" communicates the intent to start a family without eliciting unwanted images of raw dog cream pies. That is why we use it. If you are having these thoughts about your coworkers from this phrase, I submit that you are the problem.

Honestly, you might need therapy. But definitely an unpopular opinion, I'll give you that.

"I'm going to the bathroom" is sexually graphic, and disgusting.

It means ejecting urine and or feces from the body and it finishes in the toilet.

It should not be tolerated at the workplace. I'm forced to listen to this rhetoric because my shift isn't done yet, and I can't leave without getting fired. I'm forced into a sexual discussion without consent, and it's so graphically disgusting that I feel nauseous.

This is a truly US level of being uncomfortable with the basic fact of life.

It’s a euphemism designed to avoid explicit detail. You should be thankful for the phrase.

Also, it’s one of the most natural things imaginable, maybe work on understanding your own sensitivity rather than bringing other people down for being human.

Even the Victorian era thinks you might be a prude.

Bro, how do you think human life works? This is natural, sorry you are sensitive by very tame terminology. Perhaps you should talk to someone about why a necessary natural process causes you so much turmoil. I get that this is a workplace but is it too much to ask to allow for some personal freedom rather than sitting quietly working as a bot all day for your corporate overlords?

Fantastic unpopular opinion. Post is work of a scholar.

No offense, but there is a point at which others aren't at fault and the behavior you're asking of them is ridiculous.

If I were to tell you that I have 3 kids, would you also be disgusted that I've had vaginal sex at least 3 times? Or is that somehow different?

Unpopular opinion for sure, but one built on immaturity and inability to reason as an adult.

If you were in an office and someone says that they are dropping loads in their wife, yea, that's fucked up and significantly different from saying that they're trying to have a child.

OP does not know what "sexually graphic" means.

Ridiculous ... but certainly unpopular, take an upvote.

I'm so sorry to be the one to tell you this, but people are having sex all the time. I know it may be a shock, but the truth is stranger than fiction! In fact, and this is truly reprehensible, even animals are doing it. But no one should be allowed to reference it and we should all consider it gross. That makes sense.
