I'm just bothered by how OP is talking about a biological imperative, as of deep down everyone feels the same way. Biological imperative just sounds soul-crushing to me, and makes me depressed...

In regards to the fiction part of this secret, a lot of people like me really are looking towards validation and acknowledgment from society that they have other life aspirations other than a purely reproductive role. It's hopeful when a character shows up and seems like they might be a beacon for that sort of life experience too. Just especially sad in that regard when the character's previous aspirations in life get replaced by babies.

Sure, changes in opinion happen, but I get the feeling that 90% of the time writers just write female characters into reproductive roles because that's the only thing they know/want from female characters. Just a big stereotype that doesn't have much thought or intent behind it, insidiously so.

I don't know if writers are thinking that babies are the only thing to progress/develop a relationship once characters have gotten together. Could be.
