I understand if you're gay @shlendie - that's not an easy life. But be careful deciding that having children is a bad idea - in fact, it's one of the most rewarding things you could ever do. And if adopting is your best choice as a gay couple, then you're doing some good there. Better than foster homes.

Exactly

If you’re worried about reproducing then anything that causes cancer isn’t much of a worry

I dont think having children is a bad idea, I personally don't want to but yeah

Having almost everyone in your family die of cancer is kinda serious

@Logicpoints Im supprised you havent tried that spiel on me?

@Josh42A it's never come up?

ive talked about it before

I have no plans to ever have children

why?

because its a waste of money

That is the most selfish bullshit reason I’ve ever heard

ok, if you could remove the monetary stretching and limitations, why?

because their gross

ok, they're gross for 5-10 years. why?

This is shitty bait

did you just wave away 5-10 years?

like it was nothing

did you just assume the 5-10 years while they grow up are "gone"?

You aren't living your life

You're trapped in a cage

raising kids and miserable

@Doctor Anon what’s up, doc?

you are

Not much

Focusing on a project so not really active on here sorry

You are if you suck at raising kids. Some of the happiest people I know are parents of young children.

Okay, I just came back to the server to call you an asshole @Doctor Anon glad I finally got to do it

some of the most miserable people I know are

And you can get tons of work done while you do it if you follow a traditional parenting model.

Well, they suck at it, hah.

not to mention my CP could get genetically passed down

If you could raise a child who could be your best friend into your old age, make more money than you ever could, and do more good than you ever could, would you?

And not to mention all the good they and their ancestors would do for the economy

Yeah I understand that concern.

and my wife has a pathological fear of pregnancy

First legitimate concern I've heard

Well someone told her some BS I guess

no

pathological fears arent rational

Why does it matter? It's a couple's individual choice if they decide they don't want to have children, it's not hurting anyone else
