The most annoying part is when I'm constantly told, "Oh, wait a few years and then we'll see if you still don't want a baby." I know what I want and don't want, I've felt this way since as long as I can remember (Kindergarten). I'm sorry I don't buy into our brainwashing society! And it's not only that they tell me what I will want, they do it in a condescending, agist manner! Ditto on the Alien.[/rant]

The condescenscion is totally annoying! They might as well pat me on the head and hand me a fucking lollypop! Like it's inconceivable that a woman could NOT want to spawn. Man, is it annoying to be treated like you're a child yourself just because you don't want to have one. I have tons of friends with kids who really respect my choice not to have one, but boy the few bigmouths who think they know best can sure chap your ass.
Stick to your (child-free) guns, sister!
P.S. Even the DOCTOR is in on it - asked about 3-4 years ago about getting a tubal and the GYN said "not till you're 35 or have had a kid already." WTF? How paternalistic (no pun intended) can you get?!
