Why are women in pregnancy test ads always happy it's positive? (hexbear.net)

I mean why? Wouldn't it be much more realistic and relatable if the ad was like "oh thank fuck I'm not pregnant"

new conspiracy theory: they're in cahoots with other industries that do body shaming. Oh you think you're pregnant? What if you just got oddly fat?

I remember there was this morbid Discovery Channel show that was all about women who didn't know they were pregnant until they had some really bad abdominal pain and pretty much gave birth.

My mom was obsessed with that show.
