Arnold Schwarzenegger Discusses His 1994 Documentary 'Junior' And How Much Easier It Is For Fathers To Give Birth Today

April 16, 2021
     New York, NY--Today Good Morning America treated us to a break from nationwide violence and divisive politics with a feel-good piece: Arnold Schwarzenegger reminiscing about his landmark documentary film, and how it really set the stage today for eliminating gender roles in giving birth.
      "I remember how the doctors REFUSED to accept that I wanted to be the one delivering our baby," the former bodybuilder said intensely, but with his contagious laugh. "I had to keep telling them, ‘It’s not a tumor!’"
      The actor and fitness professional-turned-politician also discussed how proud he was to be one of the first fathers to stop mooching off mothers when it comes to familial responsibility and caregiving. “In our family, it’s always been about equality, and that’s sometimes political” Arnold mused. “But I’m not into politics, I’m into survival.”
