"You'll change your mind once you're pregnate."

The responce should have been "I wouldn't be pregnate long enough to change my mind." Heh

Considering the program used, this is both cute and effective. It's also right on the dot as far as how some people behave when they learn others want no children.

@beefchops2011 Thanks. That's why I made the video. Each question is something I've been asked on more than one occasion.

why are they talking all robotic

[ElizabethR1558]

@KevinPatrickCarey It's the free program I used on the internet to create it.

@gir908922 I think the badgerers lack the very capacity to understand our perspective; these 'sheeple' can only see life through the filter of values they have internalized...but I also suspect that they envy our freedom!!

If they were truly happy & at peace with their own choices, they would NOT be exerting pressure on us to join their ranks, right? Every such attack on us reflects their own insecurites/regrets. In a world of round holes, we are the cool square pegs with our scary corners!!

Story of my life. People who badger us for not wanting kids never stop.

Aye, yai, yai! Where's the anvil to drop on this moron? She told you, "NO KIDS!!! ***Scarface voice*** LMFAO :-)

@CalamityM

Don't you hate that crap? Ugh!

[writerforlifeify]

@CactusHeart79 7 billion of us & counting....why can't more wanna-be parents adopt the MANY orphaned/abandoned children in this world? They've just gotta have 'their own', spread their precious genes around, right? Kahlil Gibran said that your children are NOT yours; they come THROUGH you, not FROM you. Yours is the privilege of having them for but a while 'til they find their wings and soar; we're all interconnected. There are countless ways to (selflessly & more responsibly) serve humanity.

Look at the two women involved in the conversation. This is how it should've went down: Flat-chested Moo: do you have kids? Woman: "No, I don't. I don't want them" Flat-Chested Moo: "Oh, oh, what? Blimey! Don't you want kids?" Woman: "Don't you want tits?" *awkward pause* "Have any other rude, intrusive questions for me? No? Alright then". Fade to black. The end.

@writerforlifeify:haha,I knew when I was 8 lol.Still equally cool :.) Whatever in me that might pass for "maternal urge" I think are basic human traits:nurture, care, love.That can be distributed in many other ways in this world:Plant, animal, elderly(they need their diapers changed too,but u don't see anyone knocking u out of the way to do THAT).To withhold1's love,nurture,care &attn for whatever falls out of their vagina makes them as narrow-minded & discriminatory as they accuse US of being.

@CactusHeart79 Glad you see my point! In my case, I absolutely knew at age 12 that I'd never be a mom; it wasn't a decision per se, just something I uncovered about myself early in life. I DO like kids, I'm patient & relate quite well to them; I'm just a kid at heart myself, yet a writer in my bones (I'm an artsy soul)...but the very DESIRE for a child (or a pet or a plant) has ALWAYS been totally ABSENT in me...and that's ok. I am who I am, child-free, unflinchingly true to MYSELF!

[CactusHeart79]

@writerforlifeify: You've got it! I see no other reason to explain their downright COMPULSION to "fix" us to see things their way, as if their way is so great! To paraphrase a t-shirt I once saw "Your kids have scarred my uterus for life! Thanks!"
