I thought this was an interesting article, written with a good heart, and well written, which is becoming every more rare.
The excerpt is not from the very beginning of the piece, but a couple of paragraphs in, the opening just had a lot of background that would have been hard to edit, so apologies if that's confusing in any way.

Initial reaction: The term "breeder" is insulting and derogatory. Dogs breed, humans reproduce.
Does the piece overcome that negativity/reality?

I don’t want to be too critical of this woman and her “journey” but she is ABSOLUTELY TYPICAL for the sort of yuppies I know who migrate to New York. They are thoroughly modern and liberal, while also self-centered and grasping. As she admits, children are the antithesis of this attitude. Manhattan is ground-zero for this breed.
It then becomes an utter revelation and epiphany for them, that they have the same basic needs and emotions that the rest of womanhood and humanity have had since the beginning of time.
