“I love children and enjoy being around some of them — nieces, nephews, etc. But I always knew I’d be unfit to be a parent, so am not a parent by choice.”

We have some long term single women friends, who fall into that category.

They make great but “different” aunts to their nieces/nephews.

I see; thanks for clarifying. How can there be shame for the men if it is “involuntary”?

I know immigration is erasing our culture while costing us a ton of money, but I don’t see our elites ever attempting Japan’s solution (which even they have abandoned). The economic stagnation of an ageing, shrinking population is seen as too daunting to accept.

Other countries really make you jump through hoops to work in them as a foreigner; we should be doing the same. More importantly (in terms of the destruction of our culture), we should stop importing the underclasses of Third World dumps.

I had the same experience with a pet.

Once I had children, pets had a role, but a different role in my life. Not child replacment therapy.

Now they are pleasant diversions. There are no fur-babies here. Just good dog, good cat.
