She also supports Elizabeth’s sentiment behind the registry. “I definitely agree that we should be awarded beyond marriage and babies! There’s something really intentional about a gift registry, allowing people to tell others what they specifically need/desire is really meaningful. If I never were to get married or have children, does that mean I never get to ask for a really nice glass Tupperware set?! Ridiculous lol.”

She continued, “To be fair, I’m not sure of a time where men and nonbinary people receive gift registries beyond marriage and babies. However, there is something that is key to Liz’s comment — women are expected to have their lives revolve around babies and children, above all else. Her statement is more of a rejection of that sentiment rather than a declaration that men get gift registries for things other than marriage and babies.”
