Yes, I did want your personal opinion. Everything I´m posting is my personal opinion. The thing is, the world isn´t made of "parts" any more, and we can´t fill all "parts" up just because they´re empty. Ask the Japanese. As for myself, I´m willing to circulate anytime, just can´t afford it hahaha.
One, I think the Chinese realized a long time ago what I´m talking about and they took their own measures: one child per couple only. That´s sustainable; even though it may affect many people´s personal wishes, it helps the collective to be less chaotic and in turn it helps those same individuals to have better living conditions.
Two, I think it´s no use talking about/ taking environment protection, species protection, land conservation measures if people keep buying what they don´t need. Here´s the definition of status by a Brazilian brainless philosopher: "status is buying something you don´t need, with money you don´t have, to show people you don´t like something you are not".
Three, social inclusion but if I keep going on nobody else will read, let alone speak.
It´s not about that either. I don´t feel less of a human being, before I even feel less of a woman, due to anything I believe in or decide to do.
The world´s always been a dangerous place - you´ve got a point. However, it´s not only to one person that you owe now. It´s to thousands of other living species who cannot tell you they need more space and they need to keep living as a species too. It´s to the next generations who will not have the same comfort or opportunities as you do now (it´s called "intergenerational responsibility" in Brazilian Law, even though we have less brains).
The point is not whether why I don´t want kids or why you do. It´s who should decide about that and on what basis.
Enough of me lecturing though, I want to listen to the opinions.
And "I think there is enough love for them and i want to have such experience" is exactly what I meant when I said it´s selfish, because you´re not thinking of the kids, you´re thinking of your own desire to have kids.
No personal offense to anyone meant, it´s just a point of view.
I know, that´s exactly the point. Considering the current natural disasters, loss of habitats and mass extinction of species, lack of potable water for 1/3 of the world population, all due to environment damage, don´t you think it´s about time having children becomes a SOCIAL decision, not an INDIVIDUAL one? Because it´s this personal decision that´s really causing all the trouble: too many people, too many people...
Some people ask me why I won´t have kids. When I want to to give them a serious answer, I say it´s because it´s unsustainable, ecologically incorrect and inviable, selfish and alienated.
They call me radical. However, the reason why we spend so much money on hopeless environment protection measures is that nobody in the decision-making spheres wants to deal with the real problem - too many people wlaking on the planet - and face all those religious voters, of all religions, who think that´s "God´s plan". Well, maybe if God hadn´t been invented, they would certainly have found other reasons. To me, it´s economy: economies need to grow, so more demand is necessary.
I won´t have kids because it´s just not fair with THEM.
[I think it's a 'Life Partner'...... you do stuff together.... no marriage, no physical stuff.... but enjoy doing stuff together]
I think it was part-life partner or something like that, meaning being with someone who´s going through the same stage in life as you as, i.e. if you´re still in college and partying and broke, you go out with someone who´s the same. The you gradutate, get serious and start looking for a job, get employed, start exploring other horizons, then you´ve got nothing to do with that person any more, so you break up and get together with someone with similar interests. Those relationships last as long as you´ve got things in common. Differently from my parents, who´ve stuck together for almost 50 years no matter what their personal interests were.
I don´t drink - much. I like to have just ONE glass of beer once in a while. The problem is, when I have a glass of beer, I become a whole different person. And THAT person drinks like hell.
Because I never thought getting married was important???? I´ve lived together though, and the good thing about not having got married was that it lasted as long as it was supposed to, and ended with no complications.
Yea I hear that all the time, and also when I mention I don´t want children they go "OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHH YOOOOUUUUUU DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNN`TTTTTTTTT?????". Like it´s a normal healthy thing to like those little weeners.
You girls don´t understand. Try training in the firefighters. Can u imagine trying to unroll a hose in a hurry, under pressure, and with high pressure? Of course it splashes everywhere. That´s why I train them to do it seated.
No, it´s that some people took it seriously in the wrong way, but I can´t explain it without being offensive to those people, so never mind what I said.
I considered posting there, but I couldn´t be honest without being cruel. And I couldn´t be sarcastic without feeling guilty. That´s what I meant by those sarcasm statistics, see?
Hmmmm... futebol, forró e caipirinha. I think I have a clue what kinds of Brazilian Stuff you´re into. Maybe you could get a deal on those five camels and a legless mammoth of yours.

BREEDING - unsustainable and ecologically incorrect
Do you believe in such a thing as a Free Society?
