can we, as a society, please stop assuming that everyone likes and/or wants children? can we please stop asking young women “so when are you going to have kids?”because honestly not everyone wants or even fucking likes kids.
kids are expensive, messy, germ-y, and a huge time commitment that not everyone wants to make, so can we please fucking stop assuming that everyone will have kids at some point in their lives.
also, related, can we please make sterilization surgeries available to everyone over the age of 18 who gives informed consent to the procedure? because i think i, at 20, am old enough to know that i never want kids. i think i know myself on this one. it grates against me that here in the uk, a 16 year old girl could decide to pop out a kid, but i, a 20 year old woman, can’t decide that i never want to do that. like, what sort of logic?
anyway yeah not everyone wants or likes kids, stop assuming that they do, thanks & have a nice day!
