i mean, idk about you but i just whistle out of my bedroom window and a host of cartoon bluebirds and mice rush in and do all my chores for me. such are the benefits when you’re childfree!Let's just go ahead and add all domestic/household things to the list. Everyone knows that child free people never have to clean, do laundry, change a lightbulb or stop by the shops to purchase milk.
yeah what is the obsession with ‘responsibility’??? I don’t want responsibility!! I don’t like responsibility! I just want an easy life and to do what I want, when I want, fucking sue metbh if someone says to me that I don’t have any responsibility because I’m child free I’m going to proudly announce that I don’t because the money I save on childcare means I can afford a cleaner, deliveroo my shopping to my door, and send my clothes out to be washed and ironed professionally
We’ve filled out post wedding time with holiday planning and booking instead, got five booked and paid for for this year and planning moreI said this once my wedding was over. I had a tiny at home Wedding but it takes over your life before hand and I can imagine if you have a big one you have been planning for years you get married and then what do you do with your time, fill it with an baby.
And they end up having a million more kidsyeah what is the obsession with ‘responsibility’??? I don’t want responsibility!! I don’t like responsibility! I just want an easy life and to do what I want, when I want, fucking sue me
it feels like more toxic productivity for social media - everyone just wants to show off that they’re the busiest, work the hardest and have the nicest things.
mumfluencers are basically like this:
have a baby > make a family Instagram > buy everything beige and aesthetic only > slide into DMs with a ‘hey girlie’ to shill some wax melts > become a superhero girlboss MILF > post stories about self care not being selfish > have a breakdown and post about the ‘raw, honest side of parenthood’ because they’ve been deluding themselves for years that everything is wonderful > share #adgifted mindfulness meditation sessions via aff link
Agreed, and I think also they want us to suffer, and can’t believe it’s not mandatory.Men take Childfree posts made by women personally because it reminds them that in the modern world they are not needed.
If men are not needed then the beliefs that they are superior to women falls apart. Some men have nothing but their sense of ego. As more women get educated and experience more freedom, this category of men feels endangered. Which leads to men being aggressive online.
We could have a whole talk about the rise of the "nice guy" or the "wife guy". A bunch of men pretending to adapt to the modern era but eventually show their misogyny. ie : not pulling their weight at home, refusing to date women who earn more, etc
Oh god yeah they get annoyed when you mention going away againWe’ve filled out post wedding time with holiday planning and booking instead, got five booked and paid for for this year and planning more
Can’t talk about it with mates with kids though as they fume 🫠
Yes! The saddest thing is that some women still want to bring other women to miseryland with them.Agreed, and I think also they want us to suffer, and can’t believe it’s not mandatory.
I agree, the women I know who are actually happy being mothers are happy for me that I’m childfree and say being a mother is hard work and I’m doing the right thing not having kids if I don’t want them and more people should make that decision. All of the unhappy mothers I know who are always complaining about their children go on about all the reasons why I should have them. You should hear them talking to pregnant women though! They get told their life is over, their body will be ruined, their relationship will never be the same, they won’t have any time or money etc!Yes! The saddest thing is that some women still want to bring other women to miseryland with them.
I've met a lot of unhappy mothers who were jealous and bitter of the fact that I chose to be childfree. My freedom was a constant reminder of their "mistake".
I can relate! I almost feel like I have to play down or feel ashamed of my multiple holidays a yearWe’ve filled out post wedding time with holiday planning and booking instead, got five booked and paid for for this year and planning more

Na having kids their choice. if iv to listen to them tell me about nappies and vomit they can hear about my holidays which I try take 5-7 days away every 7/8 weeksI can relate! I almost feel like I have to play down or feel ashamed of my multiple holidays a year. I don't want them to think I'm showing off or rubbing it in
So true. I’m actually kind of glad my dad always encouraged me to put myself first and was always the sort of person that if there was 1 space left on the bus, he would take it and encourage me to do the same. Might not be the best way to be but it beats all the “be kind” crap which usually equates to being a pushover and people pleaser and putting your own needs last.Being childfree goes against everything women are told. We’re supposed to be maternal and selfless. Being childfree points to the opposite of that and society fucking hates selfish women. Think of what a woman has to do to be labelled selfish compared to a man, think of how we treat rich women, women ceos, women business owners, even women who own their own homes. Society doesn’t like them, these women are “high maintenance”.
