A Test of Manhood

Regular UnFictional contributor Carlos Kotkin shares an experience from a couple of years ago… when he and his wife had been trying, but failing, to make a baby. So they needed to seek some outside assistance, a fertility specialist. Then Carlos learned a hard truth. When it comes to baby strategy, prospective Dad is often the least important person in the room.

Carlos Kotkin is a screenwriter, author and storytelling. He often hosts the Moth storytelling events in Los Angeles, and has won the Moth grand slam multiple times.
