Seeing something designed "by women for women" where every feature is more like "designed by mothers doing an unequal share of parenting for mothers doing an unequal share of parenting".
I really wish that 'woman' were not so often equated with 'mother'. There are women's issues beyond the sexism in heterosexual pairings...

Happy International Childfree Day to all my childfree fellows!
It’s not easy to live in a world in which pregnancy test commercials never show women celebrating negative results. 🎉

Was going to post a press conference from NYC, but once more supposed progressives are using the word "families" as if it were a synonym for "people".
It would be nice if folks on the left weren't constantly adopting the fascist rhetorical obsession with families. People eat. People need groceries. Not just families.
It's not as if anyone who doesn't reproduce is wealthy. In fact, many choose not to have children because they cannot afford to do so.
The constant "family, family, family" of it all has allowed the right wing to drive the conversation for decades, letting anyone who is not from a healthy family of origin and who can't or chooses not to reproduce know that they are somehow a second class of people.
The same way "working" lets people who are unemployed or too disabled to work (esp when many workplaces are purposefully inaccessible) know that they are somehow not as valuable to society.
Do better.

When we #childfree hear about #anti-vax parents & crunchy parents feeding their kids #rawmilk, the whole bingo argument of "who will take care you when you're older" is laughable when our counter argument is "will your child live to adulthood" and if they do, "WILL they WANT to take care of you for putting their life at risk".

I was just listening to a podcast and the guest started going on and on about how hard it was to raise kids and how he almost had a nervous breakdown. Sorry dude, no sympathy here. You made a choice to add to overpopulation, so deal with it.

It invites a compassionate conversation about identity, freedom, and what fulfillment really means. Whether you’re a parent or not, it offers a powerful new perspective on modern womanhood."

@macberg I noticed that thing... Not even from #childfree or #antinatalist point of view but simply looking for some logic and coherence in peoples' actions. Among people I know, better or worse, ones who have most children are the same who care least about world, environment, future of their children. I mean educated middle-class people, having comfortable lives and good jobs, who consciously chose how big families they want. They are biggest GenAI fans, fly few times a year for exotic holidays, buy excess of electronic, generating e-waste (and also general over-consumption). Just living at the moment, not thinking of costs. Very often they also hold bigoted views or general "bad things happen to OTHER people, not us". Some of them also tend to vote for politicians and parties promoting quick short-term gains and neglecting long-term planning.
If in some alternative reality I wanted kids, I would rather try to not destroy world in which they would have to live... -

Why do you usually choose "families" in cases where it applies to "people"?
You "progressives" really need to be aware you have adopted and are perpetuating a fascist framing!
People deserve housing, healthcare, good wages and benefits, good social supports and schooling whether they have a healthy family or not. Whether they have kids or not. Whether they are employed or not.

I think it's time for a #reintroduction post. I've been on Mastodon since 2024 and hanging out at The Mended Drum for over a year, and I'm doing a bit of remodeling on my feed. I'd love to make some new friends, and I would also appreciate any hashtag recommendations to follow!
I'm a cis woman of the Oregon Trail Generation living in #Raleigh, #NC, US. Currently a freelance proofreader specializing in deposition transcripts. I'm (lazy) #plantbased, unattached, #nonreligious, sober-ish, and #childfree.
Likes: #reading, #concerts, #animals (especially #cats), #photography, glamping, dragons, spreadsheets, pockets, bubbles, word games/puzzles, #solarpunk, #sustainability, a little light yoga, and the Oxford comma.
Dislikes: patriarchy, bigotry, billionaires, cars, fossil fuels, ads, #misophonia, #perimenopause, summer, basketball (see: misophonia), cooking, running, clothes shopping, phone calls, and glitter.
I'll expound on some of my favorite authors, artists, genres, and titles in a thread.

[P] I think it's callous to bring a child into this cruelty. Thanks to monsters, ours is a dying world, and a cruel one. Everything is worse for each new generation. As it stands, without extreme population degrowth? There is no future. It'll only get worse. How could one look at such a cruel, dying world and think "Gosh, what a perfect environment for a child!" without being a monster?

[P] I'm curious about the intersection of the normalised monster traits of humanity and breeding. To begin, the world is clearly overpopulated, claiming otherwise is spreading wealthy whitey billionaire propaganda.
https://www.sciencealert.com/earths-population-has-surpassed-the-planets-capacity-study-suggests
The earth IS grossly overpopulated. This is science fact. So why is it denied? Why is the propaganda believed? I want to examine that a little bit.
