How on earth is acknowledging that people sometimes chage their mind anything like saying "You, type-wild, will change your mind someday, because everyone does!"

(Anonymous) 2016-02-20 12:54 am (UTC)(link)
Because it's ALWAYS about the childfree person changing their minds. That's not acknowledging sometimes, it's all the time.

in the above comment, I was referring to my other comment and how typewild interpreted it as being some sort of slight against them, not the practices of media.

Because it feels like ANY character making a statement about how they'll never be in a relationship/ew kids are noisy and clingy no way are they touching that, it's not a statement about how this is they way they're going to live their life - it's a statement about how the writers are going to prove them wrong and make them change their mind.

THIS.

But she never made any such statement either. Not wanting kids when they say that=/=not wanting kids EVER. She was never expressly childfree either.

I'm not talking about Bernadette specifically here (don't really watch BBT etc.), but about the trend this seems to be a part of. I. e. characters who are established with Some Kind Of Socially Deviating Life Choice changing their minds about it and conforming to the commonly accepted standards for a happy life.

(Anonymous) 2016-02-20 01:48 am (UTC)(link)
I mean OK, but that's not how Bernadette was. And that's even disregarding the childish "ew kids!" reaction.

(Anonymous) 2016-02-20 01:05 am (UTC)(link)
Because that "oh, you'll change your mind" mindset is overwhelmingly (and annoyingly) prevalent.

(Anonymous) 2016-02-20 01:32 am (UTC)(link)
It's not that I don't think there are obnoxious people out there who would say "BUT MAYBE YOU'LL CHANGE YOUR MIND ABOUT KIDS" to childfree folks, but I have to say, I think some people are taking this a little too personally. If you haven't seen BBT, you can't really speak to whether Bernadette might take a different stance on children - and I never got the impression that she was hardcore childfree. She's allowed to change her mind, you know.

tl;dr - I totally agree with "I'm not overly familiar with BBT but it sounds like people are imposing their own agendas on Bernadette (just like they did with, say, Sheldon's sexuality)."
