Are these normal reasons for wanting kids?
I’m asking men specifically because someone Ik told keeps telling me his reasons are completely normal and that I’m just being a “modern/woke woman.”
I don’t want children, but his reasons for wanting them are:
• All his friends will have kids
• My boobs will grow so he’ll be more attracted to me
• My body will be “ruined” so only he would be sexually attractive to me
• He wants to prove he’s a man and specifically wants a daughter because girls are better kids (but also wants a son)
He doesn’t really talk about parenting, raising a child, or responsibility mostly these reasons. He insists this is how men normally think.
So I genuinely want to ask: men, are these actually normal reasons for wanting kids?
