My fiancee and I both love children, and want them very much. He is sterile, so we would have to use artificial insemenation or in-vitro fertilization. Adoption is also a possibility, though I'd like to be pregnant someday.
One complication keeps arising- I don't think I want any male children. I don't understand boys; I have no idea where they're coming from. They're not cute, they're messy, they get in far more trouble, etc. I love girl children, and can hardly wait to have my own little girl. Girls are cute, and far more easily understood. Being a girl, I think I could raise a girl better than I could raise a boy. I find nothing appealling in boy children, and wouldn't like to have to suffer for nine months to produce one. My fiancee wants boys as well as girls, and I just don't know how to tell him about my feelings. It's not fair for me to doom him to a lifetime of no boy children, but I don't know how I would deal with a son.
