Lol, yeah- lemme get myself in top physical and mental shape, just so I can flush it down the nearest toilet, for the next 20+ years!!
Moo logic.
That's what I was thinking. What in the fuck is the point of getting yourself in shape just so you can watch yourself turn into a beached whale?

There isn't any point. But i think that they want to get in shape for the pignancy, so the body can stand it easier. I don't know, that's the only explanation that comes to my mind. I need to do some research in this area because the logic just baffles me.

I had a doctor's appointment this morning. The waiting room had a TV with 'educational' information playing. One of the segments claimed that parents get fewer colds than the childfree, and it was put down to a better psychological state. Yeah, right.
I'd rather get the flu every year for a week than deal with a brat 24/7/365.

Better psychological state? More like due to a built-up immunity from constant exposure to all kyd germs. Blech.

I've been having a conversation via e-mail with this person I know, eventually the topic of kids came up and I said that I wouldn't be having any. She asks why, I explain, and she responds with this:
"You go to some effort explaining why you don't want kids, but my hunch is that you do want children but feel you can't and are trying to rationalize that fact away by telling yourself that you don't want one."

Just when I thought my parents had accepted the fact that I'm CF, my mom bingoes me twice. She used the "you're lucky your father and I didn't think like you do" and "you were a child once!" bullshit. When I asked her what relevance that had to my decision to be CF, she didn't have an answer, of course.

Ugh, just got treated to my first "well, you might have kydz if you find the right person" bingo. Like I'd be staunchly CF, then meet the "right" man, and just drop everything and breed for him. Y'know, because I'm female, so obviously I'm not capable of my own thoughts and opinions. Obviously.
Sad thing is, this bingo came from another woman.

Oh, your first! Congrats! :bal
Isn't it something how they think we don't know our own minds.

I'm 39 years old and never married, so at this point, some people just assume that I'm too old to have chyldren, which is fine with me because then I don't have to explain anything. The problem is that I look young and this coworker does not know my age. So, he embarks upon the task of ferreting out why I don't want kyds. I politely explain that I am getting older and have never been married, but that I have never wanted kyds anyway.
He says, "But you don't know who those people (my unborn chyldren) are going to be... You don't know what parenthood is like until you are one... You don't know how awesome that life change is..."

Colleague then said, in case I had not already clued in to her message, I should have JUST ONE as I get all the "benefits" of having a kid but without the true difficulty of having multiple children.
WTF? Thanks for the sneaky reference to my selfishness, and there is a big difference between NONE and ONE!
