I am curious if the majority of leftist people don’t actually want children haha. There doesn’t seem to be any studies about it, but my convos with leftists is that most don’t seem to want to have children either for the uncertainty of the future or because they are too expensive or because it wouldn’t give them too much time to organize or whatever other reason that I forgot about.

I personally lean on not having children because I have been laid off of several jobs and having someone financially dependent to me scares the shit out of me and would put my stress levels through the roof.

    I lean left like most intelligent people.

    I do actually want a child, i know it’s hard. But several instances and things beyond my control and this current political climate. Absolutely not. And being almost too old, we’ll I guess it’s fast becoming not an option.

    So on my soapbox for a minute.

    Most liberals would actually have children, if you make the environment supportive of those who choose that option. Being in the US i can assure you, it’s exactly the opposite in this dumb country. It’s a liability, it’s cruel, its harsh. There’s barely any incentive beyond not having your bloodline die out.
