Why should Regina's inability to have children should be viewed as "tragic"? Is that what a woman is supposed to be about? Giving birth? If so. . . ugh!

["And even if Zelena would have a family to count on, she would still not be able to let go of her wicked ways."]

How do you know this? Because she rejected the idea of turning over a new leaf twice? A person's moral compass is something that is always in motion and never completely guaranteed. A woman is not supposed to be about primarily giving birth to a child. However, in that episode with Owen, it's shown that she wants a child. She wants it, it's not being forced on her. So yes, if Regina wants children but can't have any of her own, it's kind of tragic.

I think the argument about her infertility is unimportant. She has Henry, and I don't think her reversing her infertility is something important to the plot. At least not right now.
