Both are perfectly up for speculation, I agree.I was only comparing why it is acceptable to say he is firing blanks but not that a woman of nearly 43 might be having difficulty conceiving due to her age. If one is offensive/inaccurate/upsetting then surely they both are? Whereas it could be they are both having issues based on their lifestyle choices, age and history etc
why is it ok to speculate on his fertility but not hers too was the point
Him for his drug use and her for a range of potential issues.
