Let me guess, you don't have kids. Trust me it goes both ways. I'm reading your comment and I also have no idea why anyone would hold such stance

Yes, how'd you guess? And yes, that is on purpose. I'm also quite aware that people who are parents think it's odd or unusual to not want to do that. I'm not saying I think children are 'bad' or parents regret their choices (although realistically, some do) ... just that personally I don't get it, same as I don't understand why some people would want to have 5 dogs. I'm over 40 and have known plenty of people who are parents and mostly, they seem to like it. I've had several girlfriends who wanted to have children and I was basically uh, no, you should do that with someone else. But also my life is pretty fucked up. Maybe if I had better health and had chosen a more stable career I'd feel differently.
