I hate that people expect you to give reasons as to why you don’t want something. Whether it’s kids, a relationship, to date a specific person why do I need to explain myself to make it valid? All that matters is I don’t want to do it that’s it

Because there is a reason. If you look at history you can see how peoples “not wanting to do something” had reasons that were inherently racist, classist, bigoted or something negative. It’s almost never a “I just don’t want to” . It’s not always something insidious either, but I think it’s fair for the human mind to be curious

I guess people can be curious but I don’t like it when they approach it in a negative way. Like “you need a reason to not want kids” no I don’t simply not wanting them is fine why would anyone want someone to bring a child into the world if they don’t want them yk? But if they’re just simply curious like “oh whys that?” I don’t see a problem with it

Ya I totally get you. I think it’s valid to explain yourself as it’s apart of self-advocacy, but I also understand the disdain towards people with ill will towards whatever u choose
