If she wants to have a baby, she'll have one (biologically, via surrogate, or even adoption), if she doesn't want it then you respect that she makes her own choices in life and you have no say over them. This isn't a question about the direction of her music production or her being a questionable role model (unless you, not specifically you but people, are an idiot who thinks women needs to have children to be good role models), it's a question about her personal life and decisions.
And as a last note, has anyone ever considered the idea that Ayu's lack of pregnancy could be more due to an inability to have children rather than a choice? It's unlikely, but possible.
I might have come across as aggressive (which was not my intention), I'm not directing this frustration towards you or anyone specific. YUKARI, I realize your post wasn't meant to be malicious, the concept of it just irked me, I'm frustrated by the societal expectations that a woman needs to have a child or it's a tragedy because her life is so incomplete and bullshit, eugh....

Thank you so much! My thoughts exactly and I wouldn'tbe able to put them into words as good as you did it.
