And they are probably the most bitter people around, especially if they hang around you. Which makes me glad I don't know any of them and wouldn't want to. > A great many of them have created lives that they are happy with, and are in the process of serial monogamy, or serial non monogamy... Ok, so you all indiscriminately shack up and sleep with each other. Sl**ze-land as it's greatest. >As to biological clocks, I used to poo poo all that. Now, while I may have the momentary urge to spawn a rug rat, Well baby rats come from it's Mommy being a big rat herself. >I keep it firmly in check, as I have no true desire for kids. Maybe that's better. Wouldn't want to populate the world with, ah, people like, ah, you. > (Me, self-preservation. Sensual, yes, other oriented, not very much. There are enough people procreating, I'm sure someone will make up for my lack of contribution to the gene pool). Like I said, that is the better choice due to reason stated above. > > Still, there is always the fascination of rounding out one's character via the experience of having children, and of leaving a legacy, though neither are the reason to have children, IMO. The reason why some people in such deep bitterness against the world could ever find a 'good enough' reason to have childern is because they live too deep in their own bitterness, hence are blinded by it.
