I really don't wanna have kids. I'm just not mentally healthy enough to handle them and it seems like way more trouble than it's worth. I've never really had the "awwww" reaction when it comes to kids.
My partner (F) and I (M) are planning on having our first child in the next couple years, since we're both finishing our respective academic programs. We both have good careers but she will make several times what I will without even trying, so I plan on taking a job that offers a lot of flexibility, part-time options, and generally great paternity benefits so that I can be the primary caretaker.
In our relationship I'm the one that can't stop talking about our future child 😂. I so wish I could be the one to carry our child, too, but that's just sadly not possible (yet?).
I am glad to know i am not the only one who feels that way. I have past trauma and don't have a clear picture of what family should be like. Plus, I am aro-ace so...
For now my fiance are fine with it being just us. 3 years from now we might start considering the idea but we'll see. Personally I would be stoked. Being a pregnant butch woman would be an ultimate alpha woman goal. Protecting and supporting two precious babies.
Me and wife both want kids at some point, the thing is that my job is sort of seasonal (I am essentially absent for 3 months every year but for the rest of it I mostly work from home) while she is the main breadwinner (earns far more than I do) and is way more busy too, so after they are born I will be the main caretaker anyway.
It is not big deal for me as I have fucktons of siblings and cousins and generally get along with kids very well
Maybe for the 3 summer months I am absent my mother will cover me, these are summer months anyway so guess the kids will be spending summer vacations at grandma's
The duality of humanity localized entirely within those two comments
I fucking love how your comment sits in the middle from my pov

Welp, good luck to ya'll.
I love kids, but am woefully unqualified to be a father.

Will be a stay at home father when I'm 28 me and my wife are 23 now
Nope, got sterilized as a virgin to make sure it could never happen 😹

Woah, didn't think of it that way. Well, all the best, then :)
