It's one form of entrapment but in this economy even being childfree im living paycheck to paycheck
Yeah being a "dink" or even just solo and childless/free used to be a ticket to easy street, now it's just regular street.
Hey I'm still enjoying solo leveling for the most part.
Exactly, and it makes the idea of “having children” sound even more absurd.
I feel as if this further justifies universal access to voluntary birth control, abortions, and sterilizations globally.
Because all because someone and their parrtner(s) have a breeding kink that doesnt mean thatt they have the time, psyche , or money to raise a child. Esoecially in today's world where living paycheque to paycheque is the default for most people. So that means all humans have gained the right to delay producing children , even forever, cause how do we know if things will improve economically? Things probably wont improve. The majority of humanity has seemed to be OK with this current 'paycheque-to-paycheque' status quo for decades....so....
🫂Same. I thought it would be different lool 😅🫂
