Its against instincts, its not wrong.
Plenty of couples get old together and have bags of cash to travel the world with that would have gone to children.

Is it wrong? What does that even mean? Do whatever you want, it's your life.
The idea that not having kids is selfish seems very common and it's completely backwards.

It's not selfish to want the best for yourself. When we do things that get in the way of others doing the same for themselves, or not choosing to let that be, is when we cross the line in to selfish endeavors. I don't think it's selfish to want what you want. Feel no shame in that, bud.

I think it's good that you realize kids aren't for you now, rather than down the road when it's too late. I've seen a lot of people that probably should have realized that, but went ahead and made a few "mistakes" I am one of those "mistakes". My parents were too wrapped up in themselves to worry about taking care of children, but that didn't stop them from having 8 of em anyway.. I think it's retahded that society makes you feel like you're not "normal" if you don't pop out a bunch of kids. It's your life, do what makes ya happy

It's fine, unless you already paid for them and can't get your money back.
But seriously, it's more than fine. This planet cannot sustain the population growth we have right how. The more people that decide to not have kids, the better.

Me and my lady don't want kids either. It's about what is best for the life you'd be bringing into this world. We have enough trouble raising ourselves, let alone a child who needs constant attention.

The fact that someone could think any of this astounds me. Selfish? To whom? The kids you don't have? How could is possibly be "wrong"? It's your life you can do whatever the fuck you want as long as you don't hurt anyone else.

Yes it is wrong. It is failing as mammals, which we are. Your purpose is to reproduce. Reconsider why you and your wife hold this failure idea that makes you evolutionary dead ends, and what your purpose is to be the best mammals you can be.

It depends who are you are asking I think. Personally, I don't think it's wrong. We are at a point in human history were there are so many people on earth, that if a couple people don't want to reproduce there is really no harm. In fact there could just be benefits, less people to consume our finite resources.
However, if we were in a point in time were the human species is struggling to survive after an ELE and there's a handful of people left, I think it would be biologically wrong.

So you're saying that because we as a species screwed up once, means we should give up all hope and not try? Sure, but that's a pretty defeatist attitude.
IF we all just stopped trying to evolve because we fucked up once, where would we be?

yea, screwing up once in a couple million year lineage (the progressions of homo up to our current state as sapiens sapiens), is no reason not to try things over. however, i don't see this mass culture failing until we suffocate (or destroy ourselves in any other more literal form); even after it's forced to and people survive, all i can foresee is the people who remain trying to rebuild what we currently have. not enough people, at this point, realize this system of living with our environment is fucked and not for the long haul
