Pro-Natalism

A couple points of contention:
1-Maintaining other cultures (in the name of pluralism and competition)
2-Practices decided by subsidiarity (Circumcision)
3-Using kids to inflate your own existential importance
4-Reproduction as evidence for the validity of practice (Circumcision)
5-Cultual Imperialism (Parent can't be the final arbiter)
6-The parallel between reproduction and happiness (Paperclip maximizing)
7-Cultual zealotry
8-Capital Punishment

Hym "(8) So, when it comes to practices like capital punishment, how does that translate to how your kids are going to interact with other kids? You've programmed into them a set of behaviors and when somone they are interacting with doesn't adhere to those behaviors what are they going to do? They are going to do what you taught them to do. That's how you get Jordan Neely. That's how you get George Floyd 2.0 being told 'You're fine' as he gets crushed to death.
So, no. What I see here is the exact sort of Social Darwinism I've been railing against. If I grant you the need for you teach or do with your kids whatever you want (7) what assurance do I have that it isn't going to devolve into cultural zealotry that (8) feeling justified in using capital punishment against me to coerce either my compliance and/subjugation? I also don't see how you don't see the parallel in your paperclip maximizing analogy. How are you not treating humans as reproduction maximizing machines and (3) using your kids to inflate your own existential importance? This is just more Jordan Peterson bullshit where you abdicate any complicity in the lives of the people around you while simultaneously ingoring the peripheral effect you have by engaging in practices that don't actually hold up to scrutiny in the ideological landscape. Your ideology is pernicious. You can't be allowed to inflate the validity of your bad ideas by breeding people explicitly to believe the things you believe. Especially because it can only continue to exist if people like me are silenced."

No pro quo

Shortened slang to remind someone to speak around doing something questionable, even in private messages or in person. By staying indirect with all language its easier to maintain plasuable deniability.
"Hey, I got Ginas social security number, but no pro quo... Got it? We are only doing this to help her credit score and she signed an approval in a completely legitiment way on Dec 17 2019. Remember that date."

A chatroom for Pro Anorexia discussion, but the admin is non-existent and the mods are TERRIBLE! A wasteland of a place.
Hey! Have you seen Blah (mod) on Pro-Ana Support and Discussion Chatzy recently?

You mean the 40 year old pervert who preys on young, thin girls? Nope! He’s probably busy drinking. Only ED he has is erectile dysfunction.

Quid-Pro-No

The opposite of ‘guid pro quo’: in which there is no (equal or any)return of similar value or action from person to person.
After the massive amount of financial help I gave him; with a ‘guid pro quo’ expectation... I haven’t gotten anything from this dude. He didn’t seem like a ‘Quid-Pro-No’!!!!

Pro-Ana

An underground online movement of websites and social media supporting those with "disordered eating".

It's often characterized by its use of mantras and affirmations (e.g. "skip dinner, wake up thinner"), fasting (non-intermittent), religious symbolism, laxatives/purging, thin imagery ("thinspo"), and obese imagery ("fatspo") as reverse-inspiration.

It differs from normal "dieting" methods (calorie counting, exercise, intermittent fasting, etc.) by its inclusion and acceptance of people with mental health issues who are typically excluded from normal diet and fasting communities. Pro-ana is instead usually motivated by an intense fear of obesity (as opposed to a desire for weight loss), strong morality values on food and weight, and a desire to support others irrespective of a desire to recover.

A definition of Pro-Ana meaning "pro-anorexia" (or the promotion of anorexia) is often superimposed onto members of the pro-ana community who almost universally reject that characterization.

Pro-ana is associated with the heroin chic, coquette, waif, and Y2K aesthetics of supermodels like Kate Moss ("nothing tastes as good as skinny feels"), Jodie Kidd, and celebrities like Mary-Kate Olsen and Angelina Jolie ("Quod me nutrit, me destruit" - what nourishes me, destroys me).
I caught this one girl at the school library surfing a lot of pro-ana websites back in the day for thinspo and diet tips, but the sites are all banned now.

"A moment on the lips, a lifetime on the hips" was a common mantra found on early-2000s pro-ana websites and many 2012-era pro-ana Tumblr accounts often added this as a caption to pictures of waif-thin fashion models as motivation.
