Evolution currently working on bringing the average IQ down.If there’s one purpose to our existence, it is to procreate, right?
Maybe the reason some folks don’t want kids is because that’s just evolution’s way of ridding them from the gene pool![]()
I don't know if i would call it a burning desire, but i always knew I'd have kids and that my life would be incomplete without them. When i proposed to get married, having kids was a mandatory part of the deal.protip: no man ever has a burning desire to have kids. dont think baby fever is something you need to have.
Someone on OT. Let's have a draw.34. No kids. Never wanted kids. Neither of my sisters want or have kids either.
Kinda starting to wonder who I'm gonna leave all my shit to though.
I'm too selfish to be with someone else. And way too selfish to have kids. Daisy is enough responsibility.
Iirc it depends on how long you live
Whall really fuck up your mind is when you realize that how long you live might just depend on how many kids you got
If only you could take them with you to your graveNever having to pay for dating, marriage, kids, college, divorce lawyer, alimony, and child support sure saves one a lot of money.
I’m just gonna say it’s possible you’d change your mind.32 years old.
Don't have kids.
Never wanted kids.
Will never want kids.
Won't even have kids.
Gf is on board, at least she claims.
Should just bite the bullet and get snipped to see if she sticks around.
Have 5 sisters. Will presumably have plenty of nieces and nephews. If I ever want to be in a kids life at least I'll have the option to give the fucker back at the end of the night or weekend.
Kids. Married. Happy. But kids are surely not for everyone. Same with marriage.No kids. Married. Happy.
I don't think you understand my disdain towards them.I’m just gonna say it’s possible you’d change your mind.
I was not ready at your age either.
No kids yet. I am trying to conceive at 33 but it's been a struggle. I waver lately on whether it's worth it due to the state of the world. Had almost decided against it by last Fall but was quite overcome by my grandma's passing. Just a sense that I have too much love left to give, to pour into someone other than my partner. So we'll see.
Yup, I used to be that edgy and cool about it up until my late 30s tooI don't think you understand my disdain towards them.
I don't like them.
I think they're loud an obnoxious and dirty and annoying and stressful and expensive and way too much work.
I don't see that changing anytime soon. Check my user text![]()
Bro it'll be a miracle if I make it past 42.Yup, I used to be that edgy and cool about it up until my late 30s too
Again, you’d be surprised. The only reason I’m saying this is because I used to think just like that before. Thought I hated kids. Thought id never get married. Etc.Bro it'll be a miracle if I make it past 42.
You think I'm gonna get a burning desire to knock up my SO in my late 30's?
Doubtful.

I am in no way suggesting you should ever EVER have kids if you don't want them. Get snipped if you're 100% serious and see if the GF sticks around but talk, at length, before you do anything permanent.
In only 5 years, I went from 34 to 39 completely changing my path from international world traveler to covered in spit up and it was 100% not me driving that train.
I will also say this; having children opens you up to a level of deeper engagement with your feelings you've never before experienced. Grief hits WAY harder after kids. But so does love. And joy.
You are happy you changed your mind. I wonder if everyone would be happy if they changed their mind?Again, you’d be surprised. The only reason I’m saying this is because I used to think just like that before. Thought I hated kids. Thought id never get married. Etc.
Completely agree. I just want as many people as possible to be happy and enjoy life.Kids. Married. Happy. But kids are surely not for everyone. Same with marriage.
I agree about deeper feelings, but also a sense of meaning. I mean once i die there is really nothing else to live beyond me. I didn't create any art or music, I didn't make scientific or social progress. Sure, i enjoyed my life, but it had very little meaning.
