My recent pregnancy dream got me thinking about something: When I was a teen, I had a gf and we had a mutual friend who later came out as gay. One day, and I think it was completely out of the blue, he asked, if one day we (me and my gf) were still together and decided to have kids, and if it were possible for me to have the pregnancy, what we would think about it. I said I wouldn't be interested, which was sincere but I also found the idea unsettling. He then mused that given pregnancy required massive doses of female hormones it would probably be a bad idea even if possible.
Anyway, looking back, I wonder about a couple of things, was it just a random thought or was there something about me that made him wonder at some level if I'd want to be pregnant, maybe even, given his orientation (I don't no if at the time he was unsure or questioning or simply in the closet), make me pregnant himself?
