Dating is hard for everyone in one way or another, and, speaking as one, several ways for those who look pretty dead average but have trouble socializing and really only go between home and work. I don't even feel like I'm that picky; no cigarettes, no kids, yes empathy, and a complementary flavor of weird/neurodivergence.
Sometimes the no kids thing, can be a huge red flag, a lot of the incel / women hating types put no kids. There's a lot of them out there and they're really extreme, you might be limiting your dating pool by wanting someone who doesn't have kids but then if you're into never having kids, that's a different thing, entirely.
I never wanted to have kids, so that makes me an incel? We've lost the plot here, that's fucking crazy, only women are allowed to be childfree now? And also I have heard if a guy likes children it's also a red flag? So I'm either a child molester or an incel? I'll take incel I guess, interesting "would you rather."
I think you might just be wrong on this one, it's entirely possible that men too don't feel like bringing a kid into *gestures vaguely at everything.*
first thing I tell my gf's is I dont is don't want kids. one was of agreement and now we have been together 10 years and got all sorts of money to spend to travel and pursue expensive dreams. Plus what if I had a ugly child I'd have to hug it? (just kidding)
It's not necessarily a billboard I put up stating that I don't want kids. I made the decision long ago, partially based on my upbringing and now the current world situation, to never have children, so I checked the boxes saying I don't have, and don't want, children. That's it.
