PLEASE lets get merch! Mak has what so many ppl in our generation have where anxiety over failure makes us not start something BUT not starting guarantees failure. You can do it Mak! <3

I don't have the guilt when dating a man and not wanting kids. I'm very very open about it from the start though.

I'm working on becoming sterile and people are always just shocked. I haven't wanted kids ever I told my parents when I was like 10 and have only become stronger in that stance

I'm bi in a straight-passing relationship and not out to my family. I don't want kids and have a lot of religious trauma triggered by periods, so I talked to my gyno about options and ended up getting a partial hysterectomy and I got SO much pushback from my mom. "You're gonna regret this, you can't possibly know you don't want kids, you're playing God," etc. I'm 29 and I'm so confident that I never want kids. I also feel like if she thinks I couldn't possibly know that I don't want kids by 29, how could she know that she WANTED kids at 23? Child Free people get so much shit
