He might just like his wife as a person
It's a defensive mechanism, not one of convincing.

How can I best put this? Adults who are childless (and especially those who don't want either marriage or kids) are passive-aggressively "persecuted" by those who've bought in to the concept of procreation. Your motives are always questioned, your reasons are always challenged as insincere, and you're always being told not only that you're wrong but also given reason after reason why you're wrong, which is highly insulting since most adults who chose not to have kids have already done the cost-benefit analysis way before you'd ever think they did.

And that's not even including the Jesus freaks who hit you with the "God put us here to be fruitful and multiply" garbage.

So with each conversation comes rebuttals. And rebuttals. And more rebuttals. It eventually gets to the point where you just give it all at once as a response to beat it into the other party's head that "I've thought this through thoroughly so please leave your judgmental responses inside your mouth. I'm not doing this song and dance anymore."

And until the day procreaters stop the slick comments, questions, body language, and judgemental attitude to those who choose to be childless, drawn out responses like Rogen's become an inevitability.

Don't want it to reach to that stage? Listen attentively to what you're being told and take a step down from your family-oriented high horse and just take our reasons as gospel the first time and keep it pushing.
OR They probably can’t have kids and he has a long intricate explanation for it as opposed to saying, “we’re baron”….

“Among all adult men, 40.5 percent have no biological children”

Why is this a topic? It’s not unique or compelling. For reference, there are more childless men than households making over 100,000.
Probably because he has a wife…

He didn’t say anything wrong. He and his wife made the best decision for themselves.

Its always ridiculous when people get buthurt about someone not wanting kids and say shyt like “why are they so vocal about it?”

The same thing could be said about a lot of people with kids whose entire personality is their child. Like ma’am / sir, can we please talk about something else?

Also the idea that you’ll regret it in your older years and have no one to take care of you is a flimsy argument. You better have deeper reasons for being a child into this world because it’s a major lifestyle change

If you have kids, good for you.

If you don't have kids, good for you.

If you don't have kids and want some someday, good for you.

If you don't have kids and don't want any, good for you.

How bout we all let people live and shut the fucc up. :yeshrug:
Nah man, you can't let people live like that. You have to attack other people who live different than you because don't understand them or becaus they make you feel insecure about yourself and your life choices. Don't you know that? :stopitslime:

That's why these child vs childfree arguments are dumb. Both sides lack self-awareness to see that they're the same as the people they hate but just arguing from the opposite viewpoint. :mjlol:

I have kids, and I actually want more. But I still totally understand the people who don’t want kids. Love my kids, don’t regret anything, but I can still acknowledge the fact that there’s A LOT that you have to give up and sacrifice to be a parent. And it’s absolutely OK to not want to sacrifice any of those things. My best friend does not want kids, and when I tell you my girl is living her best, childless rich auntie life :wow: I ain’t mad at it.

We all have one life. Let it how you want.

This is a dumb reason. Because you have habitual liars, scammers,etc who can tell you a lie and be confident and charismatic about it. Then you can have an honest person who has social anxiety, ADHD, depression, or is just introverted that can tell you the truth and be jittery. Matter of fact it would make more sense to me that he would be nervous sharing something so personal considering he has tourettes too.

He seemed like he was really trying to convince everyone. Don’t care what anyone says. His wife wants kids. Are you kidding me, they are rich as fukk, they can have kids.

Either they can’t have kids, or she is lying. Either way. I’m fine with it, one less child of the synagogue of satan will be born.

This is from a forum that is 90% about GMB if a person realizes they wouldn't be a good parent
This forum is a symptom, not the counterpoint.

The majority of threads portray irrational view points from the opposite sex and the worst possible outcomes of marriage.

The poison is consumed on a daily basis and the recipients become jaded. Thanks for the example.

This may sound kind of elitist, but let's be real: most people are basic and dont have shyt going on if they don't have kids.

I know so many people who partied/travelled through their 20s and popped up outta nowhere with a baby post-pandemic now that we are in our 30s. Most people aren't creating the next Apple or Amazon, they not writing the next great American novel, they not meditating for 40 days and 40 nights to become a sufi mystic or buddhist monk, they not running for political office. Just watching HBO Max, travelling with their wife/husband if they got one, drinking, partying, consuming drugs, eating out and going to work/small business. A lot of people need the identity of "father/husband" or "wife/mother" because they don't have anything really important going on and that existential dread starts to creep in.
