    Elon Musk, the world’s richest man and father sperm donor of 14

    He doesn’t actually do any fucking fathering at all, so fixed that for you, VNExpress.

      I mean that’s pretty much confirmed considering a lot of the children are twins or triplets. That’s usually the case when doing IVF because the medication they give women will make them release multiple eggs so twins, triplets and so on are more common than in traditional pregnancies.

        I mean I guess my point wasn’t so much about him using IVF as it was that he isn’t actually a father figure to any of these children. So it’s unfair to call him a “father.” He could be fucking out these babies manually and if he still had so little to do with almost all of their lives I would still hold the same opinion that he’s a sperm donor, not a father.

      That’s seriously my confusion. It’s not like the genes will magically result in the child coming out a billionaire. The dude is not handsome/attractive and doesn’t really convey any high degree of intelligence. If anything, I’d be worried the kid would be predispositioned towards substance abuse.

        There is a whole ass propaganda campaign that makes people think Musk is some kind of super genius. Lots of people aren’t educated enough to see through it. I consider myself pretty media literate but I was still fooled by it for a little while.

    It’s literally this comic from The Onion. Musk’s entire life is an insane parody. What the actual fuck.

        It’s weird to think I pine for simpler times when we all made fun of Gwyneth Paltrow for naming her kid “Apple.” I didn’t even imagine that rich kid baby names would get so absolutely unhinged.

    If the wealthiest man on Earth wants shitloads of offspring and there aren’t 100,000 women lining up, jesus, what does that say about the man?!

    I’ve talked to a few young women who treated the father like a sperm donor because they wanted kids. It wasn’t as cold-blooded a calculation as it sounds, but yeah, they didn’t give much a fuck about who the father was, just felt that bio clock running out. Didn’t know that was a thing until I was much older.
