A 33 year old dreamer who has multiple passions and has sometimes difficulties to choose one path. I'm childfree by choice and have gotten a lot of criticism because of that. My goal is to inspire others to follow their heart, no matter what other people think, even though it can be difficult, but regret is even worse.

Childfree by Choice: Benefits of being Childfree
I love being childfree, praise Jesus Christ for such a life. It's so great not to have the burden of being a parent
@@MyopinionIloveJesus-hn2gy I can only agree with you!
As well as saying people are selfish for not having kids. They could all so say that people are being selfish for not dating some people and letting some people be single who want a partner
Maybe a childfree by choice person being an egg Donner or a sperm donor could depend on why they don't want kids. Some just might not want to look after kids but some might not want to bring kids into the world full stop.
Like they say there 2 sides to everyone. They could surprise me but I just wouldn't expect a childfree person to be a sperm donor or a egg Donner. Maybe it depends on why they don't want kids some just might not want to look after them. But some just might not want to bring kids into the world full stop
Because they just might not want to look after kids or bring them up. Maybe some childfree people would be a sperm donor or a egg donor
Surprisingly some people who are child free or come across like that could be a sperm donor or a egg doner. Maybe some of them just don't want to look after kids or bring them up
Would you get with a partner who has young kids ?
@@bennewman4675 me personally? II wouldn’t mind that, but I have found a fantastic man now who don’t have kids, and he doesn’t want kids either ♥️ so I do not have to think about that
If this is the case for them when they are young and dumb. Maybe some people might not realise if they probably wouldn't make a good parent.
As I have got older I want kids less then when I was younger now I feel it's something I can let go of
yes
Honestly, if these boys want to see our capacity for autonomous decision-making as red flags, more power to them. The more vocal they are about their stance, the easier it is for us to see them coming and give them a wide berth.
@@Drifter.Dreams that is a very good point!!
Because they might not be young and dumb anymore. I think some people who have kids when they are 28 or 30 or older might truly want kids
Maybe it could sometimes be a mix of young and dumb and some people being programmed to want them. Why some people might not realise they don't want kids or think they want them when they don't
I understand something now some people truly want kids but some people don't truly want kids. Some people think they want kids but they are not thinking about what comes along with having kids. If they don't want kids anymore when they are older maybe they never truly wanted kids in the first place maybe they just didn't realise they didn't want them
I think some people can realise they don't want kids because of the saying young and dumb. But I don't know if people can really realise they want kds maybe that would just be changing there mind. Maybe this is just me but it seems more likely to realise they don''t want kids then to realise they want them
Because of the saying young and dum maybe sometimes it's not really changing there mind. Maybe it's just realiseing they don't want kids. Maybe because of some people possibly being programmed to. But if they don't want kids and then they do want kids maybe that's a bit different maybe that is often changing there mind
Maybe some people who don't have kids and till a lot later in life. Didn't use to want them or maybe they wasn't sure
I'm not saying this is the case for all of them. But I think some people who don't have kids and till they are 30 or older then 30 possible 40 might not have really wanted kids that much because other why's they could of had them by now. And it could even be possible that some of them people changed there mind
Maybe some people just don't realise they have never wanted kids. Because when they was younger they might not have thought about it. And when they was really young some people might have thought they wanted kids when they didn't really want them
@@bennewman4675 yeah, I do think so aswell!
I'm a guy and I'm actually relieved that there are women that don't want kids. My whole life I heard from my parents that all women want kids and that made me sad since I wanted to date and be in a committed relationship but not have kids. Of course I'm aware that there are women who are childfree by choice and single by choice, but at least I can still find a woman that does want to be in a relationship but doesn't want kids.
@@NoKidsNoProblem welcome to the team man! 🙌🏻 Thank you for sharing! It is very reasuring to hear a man say this, that he wants a committed relationship but no kids 🙏🏻 and I promise you that there are women who wants the same thing!
@@a.medved that's great! I'm happy about that and am looking to the future and what it has in store. I am learning more and more that in the past there were also women who didn't want kids but they were pressured into it and made to feel bad about not wanting to be a mother. It's good that it has changed and more women are choosing the life that they want rather than one that others want for them. I've dealt with people who have reacted negatively to finding out that I don't want kids, but I know that for women it's worse. But I'll do what I can to support women.
@@NoKidsNoProblem that makes me very happy to hear! 🙌🏻 I think it is good that these discussions have been brought to the surface so that people don’t feel alone in this, because obviously the trend tells us that there are more people than we thought who feels like this! And no matter what gender an individual is, no one should shame you for your choice! Keep it up mate! I appreciate it!

Control 🚩🚩🚩🚩
@@ankra12 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
These same man can't remember their own child's birthday.
You hit the nail on the head, it's down to control. Men like that want to baby trap women. As for red flags, the definition can vary. For me, a red flag is a sign that the relationship won't work, subtle or not.
@@jennyperpa5302 yeah it certainly feels that way :( Yeah, it seems like everyone is having their own definition of what red flags mean, which I guess is fine, but it gives it bigger room for misunderstandings ☺️ because according to dictionaries it means danger and not incompatabilities ☺️ so it can be difficult to interpret it correctly 🤪 Thanks for sharing!
I'm almost 50 years old and live alone in a brand new city where no one knows me. It's been awesome and refreshing however, people assume that I'm a single childless woman by choice 😂 Yes, I'm single by choice because I'm happier that way however, I have two grown sons in their late twenties. Are they still supposed to be living with me? Am I still supposed to be supporting and taking care of them? Because I very much enjoy having my own life and living alone for the first time EVER!! 🎉
@@m.d.s.69 I’m very happy for you! 😁🙌🏻 you have raised two sons and you’ll always be their mother, but I’m pretty sure they would want you to enjoy your life now 😁🙌🏻

Parenting is tough and selfless it's not for everyone,if you don't feel like taking that responsibility don't do it
@@dondavis8588 exactly! Too bad that some parent’s who cannot take care of their kids chose to have them anyway, at the cost of the kids
Im noticing that people in the comments don't understand what "red flags" are. Red flags are things that are BAD about a person and could lead to trouble later on, like lying for no reason or being impulsive to a fault. The term the commenters should be using is "Deal Breaker", these are not bad but are incompatibilities that you can't overcome. Like not wanting to be with someone who smokes, drinks or doesn't want kids. The fact the guy in the video is using Red Flag is an insult and a judgement on women for no reason and that's why he's getting criticism.
@@throwawayyt9300 thank you! That is exactly what I have been trying to say 🙌🏻 deal breakers are one thing, and deal breakers are totally fine! But to call it a red flag is just wrong and incorrect! Thank you!
Seems like you are damned if you have kids and damned if you don’t. Some of these damn “men” don’t even help take care of the kids they say they want and keep creating broken homes. All the work falls on women. People can say whatever they like regardless so I’m going to continue to live my BEST child free life! 💯💯💯
@@queeniequeen949 hell yes!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻 could not have said it better myself!
men dont create broken homes...women initiate 80% of the divorces bcos the govt pays them alot of money to get divorced...&then u blame it on the hubby bcos "he wasnt 💩 to begin with"...so howdafuck is he sposed to help w/ the kids after uve given him the old curbside treatment, took all his shit, & made off w/ whatever kids??...but if theres a silver lining its that at least any guy thats lame enuf to marry u wont have to pay child support...
This. Men want kids for status only.
It’s thoughtless?? To not want kids?? I think a lot of women put a lot of thought into this. If men were to get pregnant they would be hella careful too!! Women are protective of our wombs! Men are wasteful. They will shoot you or your future kids if he has no empathy. He will gladly knock up you & several other women. And he won’t be there for the women when they give birth or if they want an abortion. He thinks women shouldn’t have sex for the reason of soley pleasure. It goes against their logic. They think that all women are just baby making machines that pop out little worshippers to these narcissistic men. Men think they are Gods and they want everyone to follow after them & worship them. They want all our babies and toddlers to worship them. And do their dishes & clean up after their disgusting mess
Nailed it!!!! 💯💯💯💯
Men have been stuck on the past ever since women got rights & money & the freedom to choose. Almost every single man wants to be “the only man in HER life”. And they want that for SEVERAL WOMEN! It’s all about control. They are out of control in their own lives so they feel the need to control other women. Women can still have kids & be married but it shouldn’t be ALL women!!

Choices if you want your legacy to live on you have children if you dont care that your legacy lives on you dont have children
@@ChocolateStarfishDiddler Isaac Newton, George Washington, Jane Austen, the Bronte sisters, Hans Christian Andersen, Nikola Tesla, Oprah Winfrey, Kamala Harris, Alan Rickman, Ian McKellen, Marilyn Monroe, James Clerk Maxwell, David Hilbert, Alan Turing, Sofie Germain, Gregory Pincus. Niels Bohr, Barbara McClintock, Rudolf Clausius, Paul Dirac, Lise Meitner. Do you want me to state even more childfree people that are either scientists or iconic individuals that have contributed to this society we live in today? A legacy is what you leave behind that lives on for ages after your death. You can leave a legacy behind without having kids
@a.medved all a matter of a opinion because when we die a very small amount of us will do things in are lives that the world will remember or care about given the circumstance like those you have mentioned these names are nearly a grain of sand in a desert of people and the one thing we will never know maybe these people at some point regretted not having children to care on their name and legacy
@@ChocolateStarfishDiddler I would not diminish the work of known scientist that have helped shape and form our knowledge of physics, chemistry, mathematics and more. Kids can be a great legacy, but they can also be a great liability to society if wrong people have them. You can be a great parent, but the kid can still turn to criminal activities and therefore become a liability. A kid should not be forced to carry someone else’s legacy. They are their own individual, with own dreams and aspirations. A legacy does not have to be equal to kids and it is not fair to put that onto kids
@a.medved I will respectable agree to disagree and this is all just a matter of opinion and the passion that we have about the statements made in this conversation and the video that fuled this debate we could go back and forth all day debating each other so with that I hope you have beautiful day and a amazing journey through life
@@ChocolateStarfishDiddler I can absolutely agree to that mate 🤝🏻 no hard feelings and I respect your opinions and I truly wish you all the best as well 🙌🏻
Not wanting to have kids says a tremendous amount about you. You subscribe to an ideology which is against the production of life. You are too afraid or selfish to accept the workload of rearing children. Pets, nieces, nephews are a poor simulacrum of your own children. This guy is completely correct, you really are thoughtless. The silver lining is that people who think like you will soon be gone from our societies simply by the fact that you are not reproducing... The future will be defined by those who show up (my children and their children and so on). Im sure this guy is worried that a girl like yourself (old, haggard, depressed) has a red flag for guys like him, LOL.
Good men want to have kids. Its really that simple.
Demeaning from the start, she states "red flags about women" from a man! get over yourself! women have been demanding from men for years about everything, and now we are doing it. Hope you like it.
@@adamtaylor7412 have I stated anywhere that I think women have the right to do so?
@@a.medved Re-read what I wrote, and think about your question again.
@@adamtaylor7412 it was a simple yes or no question. If you don’t want to answer that, then that is totally fine
Hi! Man here 1. Most guys want kids, so he is speaking in general tense. If both parties do not want kids then great! (I know a couple) but he speaks in general sense. 2. She does not want to be married. This is not as much as a red flag, but rather fear of the unknown. To men who want to have fun, this is a green flag, but I can understand why relationship oriented men would treat this as such. 3. Birth control. Not healthy for the body, but hey it's only your business. Not a red flag in my opinion. 4. Antidepresants, drinking, smoking. As a european i only have problems with Antidepresants. Every girl I know who is on AD, that is the least of their problems. It's the dysfunctionality that usually comes with it (my experience 100% of the time unfortunately) 5. Wanting Children. Yes, men can tell a lot about a woman who says "I want to be a mom" vs "I don't want to be a mom". It does not necesarily have to be true, but more often than not, women who do not want kids tend to be more self centered. Which is a red flag if a guy DOES want children (you are not on the same page in the first place) If you do not want kids, give her a chance. 6. Constantly going out. Applies to both men and women 99% of the time. I'm seeing it with some of my friends in real time.
@@CrashBandicot1995 this is what I call a very good and well written comment! I appreciate it! 🙌🏻 and I can totally understand it and told in this way - I agree with you! Everyone is allowed to have their preferences, I think what I reacted to most was his attitude towards the whole topic. Your comment on the other hand was very well written, honest, respectful and openminded! Thank you man! 🤗
This video is profoundly unserious commentary mixed in with poor attemps at gaslighting men who have strong standards. Much of it is also just shaming rhetoric to shame men into compliance with what women like this gal want. Here's the thing : this is obvious cope, everyone knows this is cope and everyone knows that everyone knows this is cope. There is no parallel universe where this is not cope.

Who cares what men say
Well, I do care about what both genders have to say, but I want the discussions to be in a respectful way
Nobody!
That's ok because women hate men
It sounds to me like he wants a woman who wants to put HIS wants first. And if any woman doesn't share HIS wants, then that's thoughtless of her, and not sharing HIS wants are red flags? At least that's how I'm translating this man's nonsense. Like tell me you're a misogynist without telling me that you're a misogynist, ya know??
Yes, that is basically how I interpret this as well... it could have been said in a waaaaay better way, for example "For me kids are important, and I truly want to start a family one day, and therefore I'll look for women who wants the same" and that would be totally fine!

@@doloreszurronlopez4725 Thanks for the comment! Yeah I do not really see me as a leftie either, but this is a bit out of line 😅 I agree 110% with you!
Because men want to keep their legacy going...so if they want to do that they need a woman that isn't anti children. Few men don't want children so a woman who doesn't want to perform her biological function is a red flag like hell. It the same reaction to when you meet a man and he doesn't work and still lives with his parents. You feel immediately repulsed by it because a mans biological role is to provide and protect which he isn't able to do neither. Imagine a vegan lion, you would think that is weird as hell and so would all the other lions. Also you don't get to define what a red flag is for men, what you chose to do may go against the grain but that doesn't mean we have to accept it or consider it normal. We MEN set our red flags for women not YOU.
Any woman who uses the term "childfree" to describe herself is liberal trash. A normal woman simply says, "I don't have kids".
If having children is a priority for the man...this would OBVIOUSLY be a red flag. How could it not?
The definition for "Red flag" according Oxford Languages is the following "a red flag is used as a warning of danger" . I do not see any danger. I see a compatability issue, not something dangerous, that's a huge difference
@@a.medved I’m guessing by your accent English is not your first language? No judgment at all, your grammar is excellent! In this context “red flag” is slang meaning that you and a potential partner are not compatible, long term. It does not mean PHYSICAL danger :-)
@@geoffreypereira8024 that is accurate, my native language is swedish :) Yeah, well I did not mean it only as a physical danger, it could also mean danger towards your mental health if you meet someone who is for example controlling, jealous, gaslighting, mean etc ☺️ that is also red flags. Red flags are something that can be harmful in one or another way. Incompatability due to different lifestyles should not be included within that definition as long as it is not harmful ☺️ but maybe I’m too naive, I dunno 🤪

Yes you are correct people have different values so that also means he has a right to live out what is valuable to him. That doesn’t make him a bad man. Also, women who monetize off of talking about men are just as much of a problem as the men they think they talk about. You would not have anything to talk about if it weren’t about your perception of men and your preference to make that your main idea.
@@Lifelessons101-23 First of all, I do not monetize anything from this ☺️ second of all, I love men and support men. And I support women as well!

90% of Man thinks exactly like this guys. No. It's a red flag. And it is a narcissistic behavior. Name it however you want. It simply means you cares only for herself in a way. Cope however you want.
