No. I would only do it if you wanted to. There are plenty of women who do not want the responsibility of marriage and children. They can have a fulfilling life without it if it is not for them.

Not exactly... as a female... we want different things in life. Not everyone woman wants to have children but a lot of us do want the experience of sharing a life with someone in a marriage. You may not want children or to be married right now... but eventually, you will want at least one of them. Some of us ( females ) still have a lot of growing within ourselves to do before we even think of having children or consider being married... everything comes with time... you just have to wait and see. Good Luck!

Absolutely NOT. Society sorta brain washes women into thinking they are SUPPOSED to live a certain way. Honestly, my whole life I never even pictured myself being married with kids. I saw myself being a successful woman with lots of money to spend on myself. But then I got to college and fell in love and all that changed. BUT, my point is, you don't HAVE to do anything you dont want to. Don't let other people run your life. It is YOURS. You can only live it once so do it however it will make you feel at peace.

no if you don't feel you want either of these things then don't do them because you will tie yourself down if you get married and don't want to and marriage will fail. if you don't want children then don't get pregnant cos i wanted all 3 of mine and its very hard to give them all they need if i hadn't wanted them then i wouldn't be a good mother or look after them to the full same as a pet really if you don't want a dog you don't get one unless you rely feel you have time to walk it clean it and play with it. Do you have 110% to give to a child if the answer is no then you are not a natural born mother thats all. not all women are .i on the other hand only live for my children i dont have a life so that i can give them everything they need.

Yes AND No. Speaking for myself now that I'm getting older (snif) there's this feelings that I get that I should be in a realtionship and start a family, but it's so hard to actually find a good man who wants the exact same thing. I feeli like I'll be that crazy old lady living with a bunch of cats. I just have to accept that yes I will be alone forever. It sucks. :o(

No. You need to set your own goals that will make you happy. If you don't want marriage, don't get married just because you think you have to. You will end up miserable. Don't have kids if you don't want them or the kids will end up miserable.
I am married and have two wonderful kids. I am happy because that is what I wanted. Do what's right for you.

Nope. If thats not what you want out of life then dont. There is no such thing as "suppose to or not" in this day and time. Do what you want to do. Dont worry what others think you should do.

No its perfectly normal to be content with yourself. I used to want to be like that til I found out I could't have kids, so whats the use of living half the "dream"

ABSOLUTELY NOT! WE HAVE BEEN RAISED TO HAVE THIS AS OUR LIFES GOAL FOR HUNDREDS OF YEARS . REMEMBER THAT YEARS AGO, WOMEN DIDNT WORK OUTSIDE OF THE HOME THEREFORE A HUSBAND WAS NECESSARY . BUT IN THIS DAY AND AGE, WOMEN ARE BECOMING MORE AND MORE INDEPENDENT BY HOLDING DOWN JOBS AND SUPPORTING THEMSELVES . DO WHAT YOU WANT TO DO , NOT WHAT OTHERS THINK YOU SHOULD DO . BEING HAPPY IS NUMBER 1
