"And if a woman should say she doesn’t want to have children at all, the world is apt to go decidedly peculiar: ‘Ooooh, don’t speak too soon,’ it will say - as if knowing whether or not you’re the kind of person who desires to make a whole other human being in your guts, out of sex and food, then have the rest of your life revolve around its welfare, is a breezy, ‘Hey - whevs’ decision. Like electing to have a picnic on an unexpectedly sunny day or changing the background picture on your desktop. ‘When you meet the right man, you’ll change your mind, dear,’ the world will say, with an odd, aggressive smugness."
- Caitlin Moran, “How to Be a Woman” (via Buffy Plays With Demons)

So fucking true. I have found my peace with no wanting to be pregnant, it grosses me out, I don’t want it, I don’t crave for it, I don’t feel that it’s gonna make me more of a woman. i love kids, but not enough for wanting one myself, at least not biologically. I could see myself adopting, but I can also see myself not having kids at all and I’m OK WITH THIS.
Society is so desperately trying to impose some kind of false matriarchal concepts on everyone, but looking at the world today how is that relevant to everyone? I’m turning 30 in August, I’m a freelance, I never know what my life is gonna be next, I live for the moment and I have a good life, there is no way, even if I wanted to, I would be able to have a kid in this context. At all. And it’s not selfish, or because I have no heart, it’s just because it’s not how I imagine my life to be, and it’s FINE.
In a way, I’m kinda glad I don’t want children all things considering, because I hear and read child-less invasive comments all the time and if you’re not strong enough to ignore it, it can become a terrible pressure.
So yeah, I couldn’t care less about what people think, but for the sake of the people who still struggle with accepting it because society is making very VERY hard for them, it’s good to remember that parenthood is not everyone’s goal or dream.(via marielikestodraw)
