AMEN.
i don't really want kids either. i haven't really gotten any negative comments abt it, but my friends do look at me crazy when i say it, and i think that some of them don't think i'm serious.
interestingly enough when i took a class called the sociology of deviance i discovered that women that don't want to have children are considered deviant by society. which is a no-brainer considering that we have been raised to have important life goals such as getting married and having kids.
but *I* don't think i'm missing out on life. rather, i think i'd be missing out if i had kids.
