People acting like adopting isn’t an option too, just selfish and have some weird need to have children from their genes.

Um sweetie, not wanting to adopt a child is not selfish, just like how not wanting to have children at all isn’t selfish. It’s just a personal choice lmao

i think it's selfish but it also doesn't matter that it's selfish. it's like calling gay people selfish for not being able to ignore an instinct they are born with. most humans instinctually want to reproduce like most other creatures.

Honestly with the way that the planet is going rn, coral reefs dying out in the next couple of decades which will MAJORLY affect our ecosystems and the fact that the melting glaciers (which we can’t get back btw) are gonna release things into the air i think there’s a bigger argument to be made about how intentionally bringing children into the world rn without dealing with climate problems is bordering selfish because they’re gonna be the ones to deal with that crisis in its full swing & suffer

wow crazy how there’s a difference between two consenting adults being in a relationship, and choosing to bring a human life into the world without asking it first. oh but no the most important thing is that you follow your “instincts” 😒

Most people can’t even afford to adopt, giving birth to a child is somewhat affordable while adopting is a HUGE process and costs a shit ton of money just to get the kid. It doesn’t cost anything to have sex lmao

don’t have kids then. you literally don’t need to have kids. they didn’t ask you to give birth to them. stop coming up with excuses to do whatever you want and not think about anyone else.
