I answered the poll "yes I find it insulting and didnt need assistance", before i read the actual post regarding what it was being made reference in.
I think knowing that it has been asked in reference to a high profile celeb couple who love having a big family and seem fortunate to be able to make this happen quickly in a variety of ways, makes it difficult to separate the initial question without making mention to them, (even if only in your thought process and not written in your post) because they choose to make their family news public and there is obvious controversy and feelings about their entitlements as a famous wealthy couple around the ways they have grown their family.
Whether its the reality of their family life or not, they and the media project an image of being sooo happy and together, as a beautiful large multi cultural growing family. And if they did choose IVF to conceive twins - which I personally doubt they did, that just adds to that sence of their privilege that so many of us 'happy with our own lives' probably wish could be more fair.
