So has anyone else ever experienced this level of annoyance?

For fun I have given your name and address to adoption agency explaining that you want to adopt disadvantaged children.


Well, I do need some servants. I just hope the crawl space is good enough for them.

I normally adopt teenage girls from Asia.

There seems to be a high percentage of people on here who don't want children.
I personally find that very strange.

I do want children, I'll probably adopt.

According to the Wiki link some one put up earlier in the link there is something called a 'vas clip'

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vasectomy"
A "Vas-Clip" vasectomy does not require cutting the Vas Deferens, but rather uses a clip to squeeze shut the flow of sperm. This method may facilitate a better chance/outlook for reversal, as well as reduced pain (post-procedure). That said, statistics suggest a much lower overall success rate compared to traditional methods. Reversal

See: Main article: vasovasostomy
Although men considering vasectomies should not think of them as reversible, and most men and their spouses are satisfied with the operation,[21][22][23] there is a procedure to reverse vasectomies using vasovasostomy (a form of microsurgery first performed by Earl Owen in 1971[24][25]). Vasovasostomy is effective at achieving pregnancy in only 50%-70% of cases, and it is costly, with total out-of-pocket costs in the United States of approximately $7,000 [26]. The rate of pregnancy depends on such factors as the method used for the vasectomy and the length of time that has passed since the vasectomy was performed. The reversal procedures are frequently impermanent, with occlusion of the vas recurring two or more years after the operation.

Since the body often produces antibodies against sperm, sperm counts are rarely at pre-vasectomy levels. There is evidence that men who have had a vasectomy may produce more abnormal sperm, which would explain why even a mechanically successful reversal does not always restore fertility.[27][28] The higher rates of aneuploidy and diploidy in the sperm cells of men who have undergone vasectomy reversal may lead to a higher rate of birth defects [29].

In order to allow a possibility of reproduction (via artificial insemination) after vasectomy, some men opt for cryostorage of sperm before sterilization.[30]

I guess it's probably a good thing that most of you don't want children. But this phenomenon of not wanting children is the slow death of the West. I've always wanted to have children. And in recent years I feel I have a duty to have children, its kinda like put your money where your mouth is type thing for WNs. (If any of you wondered where your favorite racialist was for a week or two, I had jaw surgery a week and a half ago. If my posts seem stupider than usual, its the pain meds. )
That's the order of nature. The strong will dominate the weak. If you want to be free, you need to have a bigger gun than the guy next to you.-Cobhanglica

What we must fight for is to safeguard the existence and reproduction of our race and our people, the sustenance of our children and the purity of our blood, the freedom and independence of the fatherland, so that our people may mature for the fulfillment of the mission allotted it by the creator of the universe. Every thought and every idea, every doctrine and all knowledge, must serve this purpose. And everything must be examined from this point of view and used or rejected according to its utility.-Adolf Hitler

That sounds pretty unlikely, chances are your child will simply be normal and take after whatever you teach them.

Point taken.

I've never wanted to have children because of all the genetic medical issues the child would almost inevitably have severe Vision problems, allergies, then the possibilites of medical problems that run in the family which I've managed dodge so far.

I don't want kids and I consider that a very good thing for humanity. Not only is the prospect of passing on my genes to some poor, unsuspecting soul abhorrent, but I can hardly stand to take care of myself let alone some little brat (as any child of mine would undoubtedly be).

Fortunately I don't have to worry about getting someone knocked up. Wee.

Yeah, but NSG is weird, and people who don't want children are likely to be drawn to a topic such as this.
