Is it weird to think having kids is overrated and to have no desire to have any?

[WOTGMSpectator 749]

When I was in my early 20’s I had no desire to have children, but thought by the time I hit my 30’s my feelings would change. Fast forward to my late 30’s and I still have no desire for them. Changing diapers, getting no sleep from baby whining all night, and having the kid potentially hate your guts as he/she grows up are all deterrents for me.

Then having to pay to raise the little bastard, for braces, for college…ugh. No thanks. Is it wrong of me to think like that? I just think that what we hear from society about how having kids is “the most amazing experience ever” is more bulls~~~ to get guys to want to get a whore pregnant and sucker him into the marriage pool (which turns into the divorce pool later).

I think it’s bulls~~~. It sounds like one big pain in the ass to me. As for my family line dying out, I can only say I consider myself to be the best anyway, so why not go out on top? That’s what I’d tell my dead ancestors. F~~~ them.

P.S. What’s with men being forced to watch their wives giving birth? WHO THE F~~~ WANTS TO SEE THAT?! Back in the good old days, the man waited outside and the baby was delivered to the father nice and clean, wrapped in a blanket. Then the man would light a cigar with his male buds. Now you have sissy men holding their wives hand watching her push a baby out of her bloody puss filled hole F~~~ING GROSS!!!

Not really. Our ass-backwards society pretty much makes it a losing proposition. In another life I might have considered having kids and a family, but certainly not in this one.

The Children of Doom... Doom's Children. They told my lord the way to the Mountain of Power. They told him to throw down his sword and return to the Earth... Ha! Time enough for the Earth in the grave.

No. In fact it’s sensible. You’re cutting a lot of hassle out of your life.

Idiots, women in particular, rush into having children because they get too caught up in the “cute” aspect of it. Buying baby clothes, shopping for a cot, getting toys etc.

Leaving no room to consider the nastier side – changing nappies, vaccines, early sicknesses (measles, mumps), cutting teeth, tantrums, having no time to yourself, discipline, constantly having to clean up after them, and – as they get older – having fights over what parties they can go to, what time they need to be home, no they can’t borrow the car, they don’t have a license yet…

And in gratitude for all of your hard work, they then stick you in a home.

Just buy a dog.

Not at all.

+60% of all men who ever lived on Earth never had kids.

But don’t let anyone sucker you into a discussion ( or debate ) about it. As a man, whether you “WANT” them or not is irrelevant… because you have zero parental rights – right? In my life , I squirted in 2 females who got pregnant, but I have no say in the matter. They can keep them, or get rid of them without my consent. So what does it matter if I want them or not?

I point that out to anyone who asks. They change the subject pretty quick.

POTENTIALLY? It’s a good bet their own mother will pit your own kids against you, treat them like property and use them as leverage.

Women are always talking about “having a BABY” and “I want another BABY”.

But she’s not having a “baby”…. she’s having an ADULT. It’s only a “baby” for fraction of it’s life, and you want to get it out of the “baby” phase as quickly as possible. Women don’t think like that.

When a woman thinks “baby”, she thinks cute pastel colors, a party with her friends, the Bellini baby basket, and cute little outfits.

A MAN hears “baby” and he’s already thinking of college tuition, the costs of dental work, and the dents in his burgundy mini-van. It’s exactly what you should be thinking.

I had a female friend with 8 brothers and sisters. Her father NEVER went into the delivery room, not even once. I wouldn’t either, for the same reason SHE wouldn’t come to work with me every day for 18 years and watch me slave away to earn the money to support them.

If you keep doing what you've always done... you're gonna keep getting what you always got.

Nothing wrong with that. Don’t marry,breed or cobhabit with them.

Peace is > piece.

[ArctaeusParticipant 106]

No interest in relationships with women.
No interest in sex
Absolutely no interest in having children.

My life is awesome right now. Why would I ever want to change that?

[Chris1234Participant 353]

I had no desire to have kids when I was in my 20’s and I thought I would change and want to settle down when I hit 35. Now I’m 36 I look at friends who have kids and it doesn’t really interest me. The older I get the less appealing it is. I have nephews and nieces which is perfect for me.
I’m fortunate that I have aunts and uncles who are in their 80s, some with kids and some with no kids. The ones without kids certainly aren’t less happy. They sound like they have lived fulfilled lives, they have retired early (50s), traveled the world and have never been short of money to do things that make them happy. I actually enjoy their company more to a degree as their life stories are much more entertaining. I have one uncle whos wife has major medical issues and his kids (my cousins) do nothing to help him. So having kids doesn’t always guarantee they will be there to help you when you are older.

Oh, and I reckon a Vasectomy isn’t too far off for me:)

All my desires for womanly related things has been scoured from soul by one in the same “women”. Congratulations ladies, you and whatever you have to offer is being flatly denied on all fronts!

Weird are the blue pill fools that keep stepping into the meat grinder and expecting different results!

A cannot un-see nor un-hear the awful and vile things women have done to me and the men around me, they have reached the pinnacle of their foul being making men run for their very lives!

With each female detonation in my life my minds fuse never grew back as long as it was prior to any given female grenade explosion. Now all I have is a touch hole, no fuse whatsoever! I will never afford a female the grace of having primer cord, she gets the cannon in her face!

My advice to you? Don’t give or bend a f~~~ing inch!

[MagusParticipant 424]

To me not wanting to have kids is common sense. Similar to knowing marriage is not right. However some people apparently hate me for this. Even on MGTOW I’ve been called an arsehole just a few hours ago for these views. It makes me wonder. I see the way this thread was started. As a question. Like the one about patriotism that starts as a question. Is there a term for stating the obvious as a question? And why do we need to state the obvious as a question in a place like MGTOW? Maybe we got a bunch of bluepill participants here that don’t yet realize it?

Why in the good f~~~ would I want to have kids when the world is
marching towards WWIII?

[Max PowerParticipant 2721]

I have a son, he is 20 now and I love him to death. I would not go back and change anything. He is a great son and a great mate. We still live together, just him and I, and it is great.

However, I absolutely would never have kids again and I advise him not to also, and he seems to be totally averse to it for many reasons, included some of the reasons you guys have listed above. He is basically a young MGTOW and totally agrees with all of our conclusions.

Yes, even a bloke with a close son is still, absolutely and unequivocally, advising you not to do it.

Don’t do it. Don’t do it. Don’t do it!

I would die for him, but don’t do it.

Plus, the world population increases by around 200,000 people every day. I think that is reason enough anyway.

Love my kids and would never have anymore or become a replacement daddy for some single mother multi spawn c~~~ . MGTOW and monk

THE PLANTATION HAS NOW TURNED INTO THE KILLING FIELDS . WOMAN ARE NOW ROLLING CAMBODIAN STYLE .

[UnbelievableyetnotParticipant 512]

The genes you have in the child halves with each generation. So very quickly you’ll just have descendants left with no genetic relation to you and who might not even have your surname. Not worth it.

Ive never had the desire. I have no insinct to carry on my blood line, or whaterver that stuff is.

[surfdude12Participant 4103]

Back in good old days, dude was out playing golf with buddies and getting s~~~faced as his wife was pushing out his kid

And as a result, he never lost sexual attraction towards her, as he never suffered the PTSD of seeing her vag open 12″

[SwimcatParticipant 3599]

My three kids were a lot of work and a fortune of money, but now that I’m alone and getting older, I’m damn glad I’ve got them.

[HitmanParticipant]

Why WOULD you desire to have kids under current circumstances ? Should something go wrong in a relationship, you know damn well who the courts favor. In many cases you won’t be having the kids, she will f~~~ up the relationship, get custody of the kids, and you’ll just SUPPORT the kids while she “has” them.

Besides, consider the downsides, the cost, the chances of the kid being a royal s~~~head, or the kid being born with an illness/condition that will cause it a life of suffering beyond your imagination. May seem unlikely, but it’s happened to people i know.
