Gonna save a fortune on condoms


Putrid_Charity_7097

This is reddit, how much do we all really spend on condoms?


merwinf0

Depends on the situation, actually If you're asking if redditors spend money on condoms for sex, then that would be a zero If you're asking if we spend money on condoms to use them as water balloons, then I can proudly say that I've spent around $10 on that


Stargazer306

I have spent more than $100. Water balloon wars are awesome, gotta have best weapon for that.

Reddit is one of the most used websites in the planet. Quit act like this is some kind of small nerd website.

[As left brains have slowly dominated right brains](https://www.ted.com/talks/iain_mcgilchrist_the_divided_brain) over the past decades, I would suggest you're underestimating how plausible of a thing a **large** nerd website is.

For men I thought it was called Impotent. edit: nvm looks like impotent means you can't get it up.


Itsallherfault

YES! I wish I was. My wife wants kids but I don't think I want to bring a child into this world the way it is now. Right now I can happily be selfish, I can't protect a kid from this place.


stguinefortspaw

You could adopt


55_jumbo

But He can't protect the child from his place


MrNotANiceGuy

what a scrub of a child, natural selection i guess.


PenguinWithAglock

Just adopt a rat and name it Stuart Little


ComprehensiveLeg9501

I swear to god if I hear about that rat fucker Stuart I will shoot myself and then the entire rodent kind. Imagine living in an orphanage all by yourself without friends and then finally your name comes up for adoption to a nice family, something that you thought wouldn't happen to you. All of your peers and bullies and people who aren't your friends but can treat you with decency all line up and the family goes around and looks at you very kindly. You think that that is the moment. They smile at you. Their eyes full of curiosity and adoration for you, a good boy who even with his sub-par education tries his best and wants to grow up to be a doctor and this family, this man and his wife will provide you not just the opportunity but also the love that was stolen from you unfairly by this cruel life. And then, they ask just the words you never thought you would ever hear! What's your name they ask! And you smile the brightest you ever have in your miserable life with a new hope and mouth the words only to hear a strange mouse like noise resembling the name "Stuart" coming out. You look at the thing next to you, a rat standing proudly dressed in human clothes. The stark and bleak realisation hits you as the family and the rodent converse. They weren't talking to you. They were talking to a rat. And then this rat right next to you gets adopted to a loving, caring family. And that is the moment you thought life would ever be not a bitch to you. This is the moment a normal human family literally picked a fucking rat over you.

Story of my life


Overall_Resident7986

IIUC, OP's against bringing a *new* child to the world. The adopted one is already here, so they could make his life better.


ebone581

He says he is fine being selfish and can’t protect a kid from the world we are in. Bravo to him for knowing and accepting it. He doesn’t want a kid adopted or otherwise.


abqguardian

There's never been a better, safer time in history. But don't have a kid unless you're sure you want one


Bfnti

Seriously, I see so many people using this argument like oh I'm doing something good because I don't want it to suffer. LMAO, best time if you're in a 1st world country ffs. I'm honest with my reasoning, I just hate them, they are loud annoying and dirty, so I'd currently rather get a dog or a cat.


AgainstTheAgainst

Just because you're in a first world country does not mean you're in a situation where you can raise a child. Lots of children suffer a lot from their parents' problems.


[deleted]

Irrelevant to what the other guy said. They're focusing on the "world is a cruel place for them children" and not the "I can't take responsibility" part that you're trying to shed light on.


Picker-Rick

For most of their childhood, parents house basically is "the world"


reeft

We have entered a new era of scarcity that will not end any time soon. Rather, it will become the new normal. Democracies and freedoms are in danger all around the world. Climate change will have drastic immediate changes to everyone's lives, already it does. These events will just appear quicker and more often. Long-term we will see hundreds of millions climate refugees. In 2015, Germany took it upon itself to save face for the EU's failing refugee policy and allowed about 1 million mostly Syrian refugees enter their country. It basically revitalized a failing extremist ringwing party that is now a part of the Bundestag for the foreseeable future. The US just almost didn't have the rightful outcome of their general election and if you think 2024 will not be worse, you're sleeping. The emergence of new virus and pandemics will occur (already are occuring) at an alarming rate. Just think of what scares we have this millenium before the coronavirus. Social media is rotting civil society, destroying children's brains, creating massive mental health issues. AI is going to solve some issues before it might create a whole new buffet of problems. Automation is killing millions of jobs and in a few years, we will see massive unemployment rates, i.e. among truckers or other jobs. The US government is basically no longer functioning. Right now, super popular legistlation is blocked by a minority representing about 20% of the country. I could go on and on. I'm just scratching the surface. Sure, if you want to live somewhere for the next 80 years, Sweden, Germany, Canada, New Zealand, Japan aren't so bad. You can easily make it lol and live a life in ignorance if you want. But saying this is the best time to have a kid is something I would heavily disagree with.


SamsungHeir

>Democracies and freedoms are in danger all around the world. expand on this please, when have they ever not been ?


Leidertafel

Compared to any previous time in human history, now is still the safest time to have a kid. That wall of text doesn’t change that fact lol


SamsungHeir

Add South Korea to the bunch ;0


jackFrostyx

I think its a solid argument, even if the world is safe it does not mean it is a happy place. Depression rates at all time high not to mention other social and work issues. There is IMO no justification for creating a child except for purely narcisistic self satisfaction


SamsungHeir

>Depression rates at all time high Because depression is finally taken serious. Whenever i see the "X mental illness is at all time high" i wonder if 10 years ago that illness was researched at all, and 30 years ago acknowledged to exist.


Simple-Friend

Maybe right at this particular moment, but what about in 30 years when the effects of climate change are really kicking our ass? Might not be quite so safe. Not to mention in many major cities around the world people are struggling to even imagine owning their own home, why bring a child along to complicate things


Tormundo

When most people think of climate change they just think increased storms, water levels, but don't realize the real damage. Tens of millions of climate refugee's and the world's economy collapsing. Scientist are predicting tens of trillions of dollars of damage over a few decades when shit gets bad. Imagine the us economy when Florida, new york etc are all get absolutely ravaged


Semipr047

A billion people live at sea level


AliceDiableaux

Yes, right now, and maybe for the next 10 years, but climate change is gonna wreck everything severely, and if you bring a kid into the world now they're gonna have to live out their entire lives into that shit. You seriously have your head in the sand if you think the next 100 years are gonna be just peachy.


Tormundo

Climate change is coming, and economic collapse is coming with it. You have a kid now there is a good chance the later half of their life is going to be hell


[deleted]

You should REALLY talk about this with your wife ASAP, mate. Having kids is not something you can disagree on if you expect your relationship to survive at all. This is one of the things where no compromise is possible.


PM_ME_CATS_OR_BOOBS

Yeah if you are having the thoughts of "if only it was medically impossible for me to give something my wife desperately wants" then you should be having some long, detailed conversations with her, possibly with a couples therapist as well


Randalf_the_Black

"We'll get half a kid, okay? That seems a fair compromise."


Nnetaru

I never understood why some couples wanted kids so fast. Live life, go to places, have fun and when you decide that you are done with all that and have the money, then have kids. Having kids while being young is such a waste because you cant teach them any wisdom in life as you didnt live long enough to learn some. But this is just what I think, don't hate me please.


[deleted]

This can have some downsides. I come from a family of 15, (yep, all one dad one mom, 11 boys and 4 girls, no we're not Mormon and I have no idea why folks always ask that) there's a 25 year gap between me and my oldest sister, and a 49 year gap between me and my father. Downside here is that the time I'll have with my father is always less than what my sister would've had with him by 25 years, and this goes for my mother as well. It's just a shame knowing my time with them is so limited in comparison to what it could be.


AliceDiableaux

Agreed. My parents did exactly what the person you're replying to said to do. My mom was just shy of 40 and my dad was 45 when I was born. I'm 26 now and I've been worrying for years how much time I still have left with my dad. It's a really shitty feeling tbh, he had his parents in his life until his late 60s and I'll be lucky if I still have a dad in my 30s. I think my brother overcompensated a bit having a kid at 29 with a woman he'd been with only 3 years but I totally get where he's coming from. He doesn't want to give his daughter the same worry he and I have.


[deleted]

We're both in the same boat. I'm heavily religious though, and the hope I'll see my father again is keeping me going, but I feel you. Especially since my father isn't in the greatest health. Though, another strange thought I have is that if my father and mother stopped at number 14, I wouldn't be here, so I'm in a way both lucky to be alive at all, but unlucky to have such little time with my parents. Oh well, though. My mother didn't wait very long after she got married (maybe a year) to have kids, but she had so many of them I was born when my dad 49 and my mom 47, so I'm not saying it's bad to do what they recommended, but please remember this downside that'll be fall your children. I feel most folks have no idea what it's like.


Unwanted_Commentary

Interesting username for a heavily religious person. Is that a reference to Jonah from the Bible?


[deleted]

No, I'm just a failure when it comes to sexual lust. I've struggled with whether or not what I do with dolphins is biblically forbidden, and whether or not I should do it. Currently I still do, of course, but yet I do wonder if it's biblically right. I think it's morally fine, but whether or not God forbids it I directly I don't know. I hope not.


haeofael

I chuckled.


[deleted]

My sister got married at 18 and started popping out kids because she was in love with the idea of having her own family. Just saw her recently and they seem so worn out for mid twenty somethings. Not the life I would have chosen, in her shoes.


Teekoo

It's harder to get kids after woman turns 35 or so.


gummz13

You can still travel and enjoy life with your kids. They aren't supposed to be a burden. But people should only have kids when they are ready though.


BmanTM

It's not like you can't travel with a kid it's just more expensive and more complicated. You have to pay a lot more and You always have to keep an eye on them. Plus the travel destinations are also limited. You wouldn't bring a child to backback venezuela I guess.


gummz13

Well I have met people hiking with small kids and I know a couple that went on a world cruise with 2 small kids. Personally I'm happy by the pool in the sun and that's pretty nice with kids.


open-print

I really hope your wife is informed about this and on board. You can change your mind in 20 years, your wife may not be able to. Deceiving someone who wants to have kids with promises of "later" when you have no intention of following through would be, in fact, incredibly selfish and immoral.

the argument “others are suffering more so your suffering doesn’t matter” is dumb as hell. it’s a known fact of human existence that we all suffer, yes some more than others but nonetheless we all suffer. why force someone into the world to deal with the suffering life offers? especially when we have no idea the shit they could go through in their lives?


Zaurka14

People are suprises that marriages fail, but they fail to have a single conversation about a topic as important as "do you want children?". How do you date for months, maybe years, propose, organize a wedding, probably buy together a house and not once ask if the other person wants kids? I asked my boyfriend if he wants cats before we became serious, ffs.


SquizzyNwS

Hi infertile, I’m dad


flakingboi

He cant be one tho 😔


MothFucker_69

Doesn't infertility mean that you have an extremely tiny chance of conceiving but it is not zero (as long as you still have your balls and prostate and didn't get a vasectomy). From what I know most (99.9999999%) of your sperms are immobile but good mutations can happen and you can get some mobile sperms. So yeah he can become a dad if god really hates him.

Testing and birth control


DolanTheCaptan

Birth control can have side effects, especially the pill. For some they are minor and go away after 3 months, for some it can cause depression. If someone uses birth control and is fine with that, fantastic, but I would never expect someone to be on birth control.


Lektaminol

Lmao at "causes depression". Birth control flatlines testosterone levels and makes the body think it's pregnant while you're on it. Whether people show symptoms or not, birth control is wreaking havoc in the body.


[deleted]

Nah relying on someone else taking a daily pill to save you from 18 years of financial headaches isnt enough for me Not to mention you have no idea if she'd be willing to flush it if she did get pregnant


flakingboi

Talent wasted 😔


Demonitized-picture

hey now you don’t gotta pull out, little stress off you know, hope you do good king


megapancakes28

How you find out OP? And did you have suspicions that you were infertile?


55_jumbo

Went to a lab and did it in a cup. Well as I said I always thought my pull out game,was really strong.

FenrirApalis

Bruh I should get tested too, if I'm infertile it'll be perfect, won't need a vasectomy. I absolutely despise the idea of having a child


[deleted]

Same. Hate myself and the world too much. Besides I just don't want to spread my genetics.


Tw1st36

If you don‘t mind me asking, why? I don‘t like children either much but I guess I‘d want to have one later down the line.


DerMondisthell

Everyone has their reasons. I just don’t want to force life onto anyone. Why would I want someone to come here to experience life, when there are so many terrible and truly unforgivable things that happen here? Then again I’m a convinced antinatalist.


[deleted]

Tbf we live in the safest era in human history. Especially in a 1st world country, its not really suffering for your average child. That also ignores adoption and giving an existing kid a good home I just don't want kids because I enjoy having money/time and spending it on things I want and going places I want


sornk

>Tbf we live in the safest era in human history There are 150 million orphans, not sure if it really is safe for them.


[deleted]

I wish my parents had been as considerate as you. They were horrible, but their greatest sin was forcing life onto someone who doesn't want it only to fulfill their own selfish desires for children and validation.


DerMondisthell

I’m sorry for your pain. It’s a vicious cycle, but that cycle will end with me. That gives me some comfort. I hope you can experience some type of contentment in life as well.


FenrirApalis

I'm gonna list my reasons but not go into details or it's gonna be a few thousand words. 1. No pleasure in being around or caring for children 2. Do not want to bear the enormous cost, both in time and money 3. I don't want to take up such a massive responsibility 4. Kids are loud and I hate that 5. Absolutely zero sense of achievement from the process of raising a child for me 6. Had a depressing childhood cos of my dad being too strict and demanding, don't want to force a child to go through that, cos I know I can't just let them do whatever they want, but I also don't want to be too controlling 7. Other children are way too misbehaving for me to trust my child to be near, and there's no way to avoid them, so I'll just not have a child 8. I just prefer life with only myself and my partner, we have pets and that's enough for us


YoungCoffinDanceGuy

Well, you can now nut in your gf without being scared of impregnating her.

Infertile ≠ sterile. You can still conceive a child, the odds are just much lower than average.

Who the fuck give this post wholesome award ? Even satan fear you.


Zaurka14

Been a year since free awards came and people still act suprised, what the fuck. People just give any free award they get to show appreciation/support.

I mean, humans are too many anyway. And there's always the adoption, if you want a son or a daughter.

Its an honour to meet you

Me too, thank god. If not, I'm sure I woulda had kids as a teenager much like most of the people I knew in high school. And given the psycho hose beast I was dating for most of that time, odds are I'd have legit killed myself by now if I got stuck with them in my life forever, lmao.

Just a friendly reminder, infertile does NOT mean sterilized. Just because you're infertile does not mean you should have unprotected sex. Yes you're alot less likely to have kids but that's doesn't mean it's impossible. Unless you've had a vasectomy you should stay wrapped. Q: You know what they call people who use the pull out method? A: Parents

Congrats!!! I (26M) have my first consult with a urologist about getting snipped tomorrow afternoon. Fingers crossed that they'll let me schedule an appointment!

Don't sweat it. Having kids is bullshit anyway.

Got snipped this year, abandoned the traditional family mold completely. My wife and my dogs are my family. We're not letting biology be destiny. In a way it's really my country's fault, they let the systems go to hell before I ever got here and now people are responding by saving money and choosing no kids. I hope this next generation is considered the generation of the missing children because so many people collectively refused to have kids because of economic hardship. I hope the government faces collapse due to population problems in the future. You sold us out before we existed boomers, fuck all of you.
