I agree that women should not be asked this question and that it hits different, for sure. It felt like them making it such an issue made it a bigger issue than it needed to be. They could have just addressed it, and then be done with it. Peter and Kitra of Ordinary Adventures explained why they have chosen not to have children in a Q&A video, and it was like, enough said. I guess now Molly and Alan can say, Nutz Said?

I’m all for people having boundaries, but it blows my mind that she was so aggressive about people asking about it in streams and AMAs and yet Alan goes ahead and posts this. If we don’t have a right to ask about the state of her uterus, then why are we getting this insight into the state of his testicles? It’s like his cheeky posts about his proposal to Molly at Disney that they said they would never, ever share the details of because it was too personal and would be tarnished by sharing with the hordes of club members who are strangers. Maybe Alan wants to share more, but Molly is holding him back? It seems kind of like haha duck kids, when they just spent 10 days in California with their nieces and nephews, just from a content point of view.

I was just looking at the comments and Alan added this. Of course this a great opportunity to normalize talking about your health. As a woman who doesn’t want kids herself, I would have loved Molly to seize the opportunity to explain why she does not want to have them. Especially now it appears fertility was not the issue. She could have clarified that it was a choice and normalized women making that choice. Instead of yelling at anybody who asked and leaving people to make assumptions about what they may or may not have been struggling with.

I may be just crazy, but I really seem to remember her telling the story of his proposal. I watched Allears every day during lockdown, and I feel like she said in one of the “Remember That Time?” videos that he proposed at Epcot France when they were both cast members.

Which again, if that is not me just extrapolating based on them being hetero and white, what is the secret?

Yes, she did talk about it in AEs, and it was the Italy pavilion. I remember her mentioning it in passing, which is partly why I thought they would be okay talking about it as a couple. People asked all the time in the early Mammoth Club lives. I specifically remember asking once what the details were exactly because I was curious about the logistics of a Disney proposal. And then both of them were like no, we won’t talk about it EVER or our wedding. And hey, that’s fine they drew a boundary, but don’t then post cheeky stuff about it on Insta. It’s very hard to tell what’s on or off the table with them. Their brand is very confusing. Now that children are off the table and they are Disney adults, will they stop telling us the height requirement for every single ride?

Ok, I didn’t think I made it up. It sticks out in my mind because this was back when Alan was just some Bro (before he switched to being Muscle Dork in Mammoth Club) who suddenly appeared in scavenger hunt videos, and the proposal story finally answered the question of who he was for me.

I am guessing their content is not aimed at children? Or are there some parents who are going to be explaining what a vasectomy is tonight?

I had such high hopes for Molly on her own - she was my absolute fave (thus my Tattle user name) - but I have not watched a video of hers in about 3 months. I want to. But none of them interest me enough to watch.

And this will probably sound awful, so expect and accept the flack I will get for this - but I don't want to know Molly McAwesome's personal thoughts or views on politics or the world around us. I also don't want to know about Molly's personal life.

I want WDW and Universal content.

Like today - I can only assume from the "nut-pack" icepack that Alan had on Instagram today and the "recovery" and then some of the comments below the post, was to let us know that these "Childless Millennials" or "Disney-Adults" had decided to have Alan get a vasectomy. TMI.

I want to know when Rock N Roller Coaster comes back from refurb, not that Alan had his junk snipped.

That's my main thing. She went from "All Ears Molly" to some new-money self obsessed asshole grifter who simultaneously is an open book and also completely hands off, don't get too close. Basically she sucks. Funny enough, Allen is about the only good thing anymore that feels genuine at all. He should actually get into some solo food related content for the channel. Just go to a restaurant solo and leave Molly out.

She literally showed a photo of Alan down on one knee during one show (can't remember if it was RTT or just a general Epcot vid), so to turn 180 and now claim it's private is bullshit.

1. They each have agency to decide what they want to share about their lives. As you said, maybe Alan is more open about these things than Molly.
2. Sharing this information doesn't answer one form of the more painful questions asked, which is "do you want kids?" Maybe they do but there is a medical reason why they can't or shouldn't.
3. There is a difference between being asked a personal question and sharing information by choice.
4. Women are much more harshly judged for not having children or wanting children than men are. The question hits differently when being asked of a woman.
5. You can love kids and still not want to have any of your own.
6. Sharing this information still doesn't make it ok to ask follow up questions like why they chose not to have children.

YES, thank you.

Another day, another photoshopped picture of the same pose as always, pretending she doesn't have chunky legs

Looks normal compared to this distorted wide angle photo. Giant feet with impossibly long legs.

Lol, someone is getting desperate for content if they had to “borrow” this Molly idea. I can’t believe they even used the same stupid pose for the thumbnail.

When did Slender Man become a part of Mammoth Club?

"Secrets" and the Shhhhh pose didn't originate with Molly. That was on YouTube before her.

These photos just look bizarre. I don't get it, they don't need to take full length shots. Perhaps waist up would be better?

Why is it either full length mirror poses or nothing but a face in the camera? Definitely......a choice.

Molly originated them? On her own? For AE?! Other YouTuber vloggers have been doing for years. A LOT of them are influencers and such.

PEOPLE! Stop giving Molly all kinds of credit like she started YouTube trends.

Ok, attributing a trend to Molly I find stupid is not a compliment to her. Personally, I had never seen it before, and I misspoke. So…sorry I guess?

I just thought it was funny AE started doing it after she did. Fry Bucket’s O Face appearing in my feed made me crack up this morning especially as I had been agreeing with everyone here about how annoying Molly looked doing the same thing last month.
 
Molly has, thank goodness, dropped her Moira voice! Haven't heard it in awhile, and not missing it. I worry it will reappear.

I appreciate that Molly tries to show new things or present information and keep it fun, but sometimes the play gets in the way of enjoying the content for what it is. Puns are one of those things.

Pun once, good. Twice, meh. Three times and done. When the running joke happens more often than that I tend to tune out.

The Knott's Berry Farm Bear jokes sat like that with me. I'm only 1/3 into the video and really don't want to hear any more of this "It's a Bear-themed park!" game. It's harming the video.
