I have asked this sort of thing before, but this time it is for a term paper.
I was forced to raise a learning challenged little brother when I was too young to deal with that sort of thing. I was done parenting when I was about 10 years old. I sought, and succeeded in getting a vasectomy when I was 21.
Since then, I have been asked why I never had children, thousands of times. I have been accused of being “gay”, “communist”, "baby hater", "pervert" and so on, in the name of not wanting children around. This has been the case, even though I have dated at least a dozen women that have children over the last 20 years (since I had my vasectomy).
Of the people that know I have no children, I think I can count the number that didn’t “challenge” me (with rude questions) on my fingers. Why do you think they ask me in some “rude” manor, or label me?
The number of "challenges" have reduced in recent years. Do you think this is becuse the world has changed since 9-11?
