Hahaha, this boy pregnant scene, I am so relieved to see

"Male mother", an Internet term, usually refers to a man with a maternal radiance.

Unlike traditional machismo men, they have a lot of feminine traits: soft, sensitive, empathetic.

Some time ago, IOS updated the system and added the male mother emoji, which is a male image with a pregnant belly. ▼

Getting a man pregnant sounds like a fantasy, but now it's come true in Japanese dramas.

When the male mother's literature shines into reality - "The Pregnancy of Kentaro Hiyama". ▼

As a Japanese drama produced by Netflix, it received a large number of one-star bad reviews on IMDB (Internet Movie Database) as soon as it was launched:

"Getting a man pregnant? It's disgusting. ”

"The net is closed, and the child is not allowed to watch this drama!"

Compared with the general antipathy of the external network, the evaluation of this drama on Douban is quite friendly and objective. ▼

When I first saw this drama, if sister's reaction was the same as most of the audience: how strange? Take another look.

At first, it was quite funny, but the more I looked back, the more I couldn't laugh.

Today, let's immerse ourselves in this myth together: what happens when a man starts to get pregnant?

When a man starts getting pregnant

The story of the TV series is set in a world where a man will also get pregnant.

Because there are very few cases, even if everyone knows that this situation exists, it is still a small probability event that is ignored. ▼

The male protagonist, Kentaro Hiyama, is an ordinary straight man who never believed he would become pregnant. ▼

He is in his thirties, engaged in advertising, and is a typical white-collar social animal.

Because he is smart and capable, Kentaro Hiyama is highly regarded by the leadership and is often entrusted with heavy responsibilities, and in one word, the future can be expected.

In terms of feelings, although Kentaro Hiyama is not a scumbag, he is also a sea king who casts a wide net.

He dates different girls every day and spends the night.

Some girls chased after him, and he quickly and coldly handled it. ▼

Career achievements, feelings are also at ease, life seems to be going on like this forever.

But suddenly one day when he woke up, he felt a very strong urge to throw up.

At first he attributed the cause to a hangover, which must have been caused by a hangover.

Later, however, strange things became more and more numerous.

He grew a beard faster and faster;

If you move, you will sweat a lot;

Always feel sick to your stomach in the middle of a meeting. ▼

Kentaro Hiyama ran to the hospital to see his body, afraid that he would get sick because of playing.

As a result, the doctor asked him to do further examinations, and without saying a word, began to apply gel to his belly.

"Eh, shouldN't I..." ▼

"Yes, you're pregnant."

"And, it's been 10 weeks." ▼

Congratulations to Kentaro Hiyama, Kitachi for the title of male mother.

Before he could experience the "joy" of being a mother, he was frightened to run away and rush out.

Hiyama pretended that nothing had happened to work normally, and his stomach was bulging day by day, and he was mentally weak every day, completely losing his former spirit.

Even one day in a meeting, I watched the baby's images with my colleagues, and I "lactated" on the spot, and the most terrible social death could not be so. ▼

No, abortion must be had to be made!

Kentaro Hiyama returns to the hospital and applies to fill out an abortion consent form, but also needs his partner's signature.

As a sea king, he had no idea who was in contact with him.

Or by looking through the calendar, who did I spend the night with 10 weeks ago, and then I learned that the mother of my child was Yaji. ▼

Kentaro Hinoyama asked Yaji to sign, but the other party's reaction was:

"Must it be my child?" ▼

How does it sound so familiar? Isn't that what some scumbags often say when they make a girl's belly bigger?

Because of Kentaro Hiyama's pregnancy, he fell into a strange situation that resembled gender reversal.

Considering the scarcity of male pregnancies and the fact that he did not want to have children, Yaji advised Kentaro Hiyama not to have an abortion. ▼

"You don't have to give birth to children."

It sounds selfish, but isn't that what men are having?

Hiyama reacted like an angry daughter-in-law and began to complain that the other party was irresponsible. ▼

Because he became a male mother, one of the bedmates who had been chasing him before also refused to stay away from him.

It's okay to date a male dad, but a date to a male mom? You don't have to. ▼

Fortunately, Kentaro Hiyama decided to give birth to the child and be a male mother who was not afraid of heaven.

The life of a male mother?

No, just part of the average pregnant woman

The play is not so much about depicting the spectacle of a man getting pregnant as it is about showing what women experience once they become pregnant through the encounters of Kentaro Hiyama.

There are machines in China that simulate the pain of childbirth, and through the current, men can experience how painful the pain of childbirth really is.

But childbirth is only one part of pregnancy.

In addition, there are the great changes in the body during pregnancy, the breastfeeding and parenting after childbirth, and the unfair treatment in the workplace.

There are so many things that we can appreciate from the perspective of Kentaro Hiyama.

For example, in the workplace, because of pregnancy, it gradually loses power.

From being assigned important projects by the leader to changing people immediately because he could not keep up with the leader in all aspects of his physical fitness, even his own idea could not continue to follow up. ▼

Fortunately, Kentaro Hiyama took advantage of the scarcity of his pregnant husband to market himself and become a new model for clothing brands, and his career ushered in a peak. ▼

But in real life, it is not so optimistic, and there are not a few women who choose to hide after pregnancy, or work until before giving birth, unloading and rushing to work, afraid that pregnancy will become a stumbling block on their career path.

As a professional woman, Yaji's pregnancy is not on her life list at all, because once pregnant, it means that her work needs to stagnate for several years, and these years are enough for her to be eliminated from the workplace.

She returned to her hometown from Tokyo, and even if she worked well, she went to her parents only:

"My sisters are married, and you're not married yet."

"At your age, it's too late to have children."

It is almost a single choice question, but it is a life dilemma that every woman will face.

In addition to the workplace, the various problems faced by pregnant women in daily life are also reflected in the play.

For example, morning sickness, galactorrhea, the stomach getting bigger and bigger, how to breastfeed in public, etc., were all experienced by Kentaro Hiyama for the audience.

Kentaro Hiyama wanted to buy pregnancy supplies, but found that the painting style of those products was always childish, obviously something used by adults, but it seemed to be designed for children, and such doubts were issued on the Internet to trigger large-scale discussions. ▼

Yes, it is obvious that it is pregnant women who suffer and suffer, why is everything based on the child?

However, it is ironic that the strange phenomenon that has always existed has been really discussed by the public because it was proposed by Kentaro Hiyama, a man. ▼

After talking about the workplace and society, it is time to talk about family.

The most vulnerable dilemma for pregnant women in the family is widowhood.

When Kentaro Hiyama was not yet pregnant, the company had a colleague who had a child at home, and often went home early during dinner because he needed to take care of the child. ▼

Originally it was the embodiment of a good man who cared for the family, but after leaving, he was discussed by other colleagues: is it too unmasculine, and it is also necessary for big men to do such things as children, and the family status is not enough. ▼

It seems that raising children is something that a woman should naturally do.

Even men who care for their families are marginalized, and widowhood is everywhere.

But then it also happened to Kentaro Hiyama, a male mother, who chose to go to Singapore for better job opportunities, and her childcare switched to online parenting. ▼

Many viewers said that they did not like Yaji's personal choices and left their families for work, but Yaji was just a virtual film and television image.

The gender is reversed, and the husband who works as a treasurer at home in the name of work is real.

If one day, women are no longer bound by marriage, childbearing, and raising children, how gratifying it would be.

Male moms are great?

But it's all a normal thing for women

Even the problems shown in the play are only one percent compared to the real life of pregnant women.

There are always men who stand and talk about pregnancy without waist pain, and sneer at the sacrifices women make to get pregnant and have children:

"But just having a child, which generation of women are not like this?" And getting pregnant and having children, these are the duty of women, there is nothing to be ashamed of. ”

But what if it does happen to men one day?

If one day, like Kentaro Hiyama, he woke up and found himself a male mother, and began to have morning sickness, night sweats, and showing his pregnancy...

However, it is nothing to show that you are pregnant, after all, walking on the street often sees a big-bellied man who is "pregnant in June", which will only make people feel that they have eaten it themselves.

The explicit or implicit discrimination shown in the play is unfolded through the perspective of Kentaro Hiyama, but it has always been the daily routine of every generation of women.

After Kentaro Hiyama successfully gave birth (by the way, to the curious little friend to answer the question, the male birth in the play is a caesarean section), open the social animal mode, Mizushi reviewed her own life experience:

Production does not mean interruption, on the contrary, this experience will also be reflected in the work. ▼

Just as he was immersed in his own awesome thoughts, a passing female colleague woke him up with a word: "We women are usually like this!" ”▼

Men think they are great when they get pregnant once and give birth in a hurry, but don't forget that these so-called "I am great" experiences are just ordinary things under the definition of society.

Maybe we can never wait for the day when men will get pregnant, but through this drama, it is better to put ourselves in the shoes of pregnant women and for the sake of women than to use all the legitimate struggles as a "female fist".

We often say that women's rights are equal rights.

This kind of equality may not be replaced by a template in which a man gets pregnant or a woman does heavy work.

It's not what women do, what men have to do, it's not what men do, women have to do.

We can't fill the gap between physiological differences, but in the face of differences, can't we pursue equality?

Is it more empathetic, less prejudiced, a little more considerate, a little less mean, with understanding and love to build a bridge between the gap, will make each of us more comfortable?

Hopefully, in the future, whether you're a man who wants to have children or a woman who doesn't want to have children, you'll be fully respected and understood.

Hope for that future is not far away.
