Why Do Modern Women Hate Children?

[CornBogFitz]

Please refrain from reductive explanations such as “women are retarded”

I understand simple aversion to wanting to have kids. The concerns such as “my body will never look the same” or “I’m not financially ready” or even “I don’t want to be a mother” are fully acceptable reasons for not wanting children, however this does not explain the absolute disgust I’ve seen in many women when children are brought up. Your brain is biologically wired that when it sees something with a tiny body and big eyes it thinks “this is cute, I do not wish to harm this”.

My working theory is that long term female birth control drills holes in the brain preventing it from maturing in certain ways, similar to SSRI or ADHD medication. Another theory I had was that modern social media has women valuing their bodies so much that they would never risk the permanent change it brings. But there are way too many fat bitches for this to be the case.

Does anyone else have any other theories, experience, or studies they’ve come across?

My theory is that it most likely stem from issues with relationships with their mothers and social factors that combine into some unholy combination. I don't think it surprises anyone that a lot of mothers will grow jealous or even resent their own daughters. Something like that is hard to come to grips with for women and I imagine it turns into some type of projection. "My mother hated me when I was a child therefore I too hate children." This isn't the case in all women though. There are plenty out there who can learn from some harrowing experiences and be a strong and wonderful mother.

They don't hate children. Not even .000%. Women love children.

What kind of nonsense is that.

You dumb morons need to take a 9 mm to the temple. It would increase you IQ and make a nice pattern on the ceiling.

They don't.

You can close your dumb thread now.

As a mother who wanted, and as of writing this does not want to sell her children.

They're prohibitively expensive. Yes, lifestyle comes into this. Lady Ashcroft who buys a new ball gown every week can, but she doesn't want to lower her living standards. This is a general minority though, some prospective parents just look at it and concede "Rather than do a bad job, I'll opt out".

Most working couples don't have anything approaching a proper amount of time with them. Societies like the UK and America are profoundly and deeply hostile to child rearing, even on a familial level with relatives far apart and lacking close relationships. It's possible, but also possible and far easier to just say "Nope".

Finding a suitable partner is another. Very few of us aim to do this alone, and while becoming a single mother is always a possibility we don't tend to seek this out as the first option. It's a really hard job, and a second pair of hands and income really helps. As much as men bemoan women seeking the top 10% of men, women have the issue of being propositioned by men with no prospects and unamiable demeanour who are not suitable for this.

Then there's the oldest one, it's really fucking dangerous. Even though mortality has gone down, it is a risk for mother and child. Very, very few women give birth without lifelong side effects. Some like me, needing the toilet more, are minor. Others see their quality of life nosedive.

You should ask more women why they only had as many as they did. Finance is a common one for only having one or two. Just because we can technically have 12 children and feed them scraps and charity from the state does not mean this is desirable and should be sought.

Yes that explains why they start late. But doesn’t explain the hatred. I’ve known girls that didn’t go to college that still that still think of children like vermin.

to be fair I don't think this is a problem exclusive to women. I think adults in the western world do not want to have children not only because they have been propagandized to be so, but also it is the logical conclusion of liberal individualism. If you are an individual in a world of individuals making more individuals that you are responsible for just decreases the amount of your own resources that you can use on yourself and increases the competition for those resources in general. We are only now seeing the confluence of this argument because we have transferred away from an agrarian economy. In previous times having free labor on the farm was an advantage to yourself as an individual living in a society of individuals because it It made you more competitive on the market because you had less laborers to pay. Now that we are all living in the bugs and eating the pod you no longer have need for child labor so for yourself as an individual there is no tangible immediate material benefit

 

[The I Scream Man]

The vast majority of women I know (admittedly perhaps not that many overall, or perhaps not that many in comparison to another person) do not hate children and actively love them. I think you're perceiving the same small shrieking minority that would lead someone to believe that everyone loves LGBTQ people, for example.

This is true. I've seen the sentiment in men as well. Though it's rare to see it at all from both sexes.

But doesn’t explain the hatred.

Sometimes there is no explanation. Sometimes the wires are just not connected properly in the brains of some people.

Ok it looks like a lot of people from the beauty parlor are here misunderstanding the question. The question is not “why are women having less kids and later” it’s “why are more women think of children like vermin” I don’t care if YOU PERSONALLY only find kids slightly annoying after having several. I’m talking about why do SOME treat objectively cute things with a newly developed horror response. And what could be the cause.

OP do you have peer reviewed sources for any of this?

I love children.

I do think
1) fewer people are having children meaning fewer people of both sexes have exposure to them. I didn’t have the opportunity to hold a baby until I was well into adulthood. Apparently this is unthinkable to older people who often grew up helping take care of younger siblings. It makes the idea of having children more foreign. Add that the desire to have children is (I think) partly memetic. If fewer/none of your friends and coworkers are having children there’s less chance for the desire to spread. I think there’s a tendency to view “social contagion” as indicative of stupid/weak willed people, but I think it’s more true that humans are social creatures and there’s wisdom/evolutionarily beneficial factors in desire being memetic.

If you’re interested I recommend Mary Eberstadt she talks a lot about this stuff.

2) less family to help, more cultural factors that are hostile to motherhood. There’s a society wide dislike of vulnerability and dependency, which pregnancy obviously instills. Some (not all men!) neglect their duty to their wife and children and leave, don’t contribute, or Troon out. “But some women are dumb whores!!” Sure. Just saying why some women don’t feel safe having children.

I could go on but I fear I waste my breath eh.

Because they grow up to be retards like you. Simple as.

Better not to burden the world with more insufferable cunts like you.

The cause for you having this insane belief is probably schizophhrenia. I hope you will seek treatment immediately.

Trannys get off my fucking thread. Reeeeeeee

 

[Mao Hao Hao]

I don't know a single woman in person who hates kids, the only places I've ever seen where people screech and reeeee over hating kids to such a degree has been online (such as the child free reddit sub, that place is crazy). The most people in person have is a preference for the stage of the child, like, finding babies cute but toddlers are horrors etc.
But as for the cause, possibly a lot of modern media making having kids be a nightmare/online spaces that overhype the negatives with absolutely zero of the positives.

My working theory is that long term female birth control drills holes in the brain preventing it from maturing in certain ways, similar to SSRI or ADHD medication.

Birth control is just extra female hormones that either prevent the development of the lining of the uterus or stop a released egg from implanting, they do not affect the brain at all, not any more than natural hormones would. I have friends who were on birth control for medical reasons who now have kids of their own, and love kids in general, so thats just not a good theory long term.
