Hello everyone,

I've been lurking here for a long time and thought I would finally join, so I'll introduce myself. I'm Arctic Fox, a 24-year-old female New Zealander who recently moved to Canada. I have a degree in Japanese and hope to move to Japan after I've spent a few years here in British Columbia.
And of course, I'm childfree. Like many of you, I've known since I was a kid myself that I didn't want kids. I remember being at primary school and watching all the mothers coming to pick up their kids at the end of the day, and looking at them and thinking, 'god, I NEVER want to be in that position!'.

Anyway, happy to be here!

Hi, Arctic! *waves*

Welcome, Arctic! :bal

Sounds like you're life is off to a great start. Isn't it great to know you can keep it that way by not having kids?

I was also one of those who as a young kid looked at all of the moms I knew & thought "Ughhh...I hope I'm NEVER in your shoes!"

We need lurkers such as yourself to come out of the closet!:sw

Greetings and welcome from a fellow Canuck, Arctic_Fox!

Voltaire said: "Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities."

H.L.Mencken wrote:"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.”
