I don't think it's toxic to tell someone they won't be fulfilled without children

It literally says in the Bible that women are saved through child birth

It's definitely not true of everyone. Humans are a weird species with savant individuals that pour their efforts into strange things. Isaac Newton never had children, his efforts were in his studies. Nor did Amelia Earheart or many other individuals who devoted their life to their craft.

I do think it should be the norm though.

You're right about not everyone. For women the generalization definitely has more potency, however. Also in today's world having children is grossly out of balance.

Is what I said toxic, probably, I don't know the person so I shouldn't make such statements in absolutes
