^ 216 starts a sentence with "doesn't make a whole lot of sense." How ironic.

God I'm weird when I'm tired. Also, do food babies count in this conversation?

Yeah because men are not paternal.


And I actually agree with 216. I've led a great life although I've had many experiences that I would've considered to be "the worst day of my life" but that's all part of growing up and I wouldn't have changed it for the world. Plus it has shaped who I am today.



Stop using 'suffering' as a legitimate excuse when it's complete bull****. Suffering is child abuse. Suffering is neglect. Suffering is a whole load of other things that are not just average life and growing up.


Just say you don't want children and don't come up with some philosophical bull****.

You are right it isn't constructive but I was just pointing out the fact that it isn't name calling though.

Ok, srs question time now. When you're child free by choice and out on the dating scene, possibly looking for a long term relationship, would you bring up this aspect of yourself right off the bat, so as to weed out people who don't feel the same way? Or would you wait and feel out the relationship first? I know it wouldn't be fair to either person if one wants kids and the other doesn't.

The kid conversation is an important one to have in a relationship, and it's not exactly an easy conversation to start (been there done that). But is it more difficult for child free people to bring up the topic before knowing how the other person feels, out of fear that they might be judged?
