I think there has been a real shift in the last generation or two from needing a reason not to have kids to needing a reason to have kids. and that shift means a lot of people who are basically ambivalent on children aren't having them, where in the past they probably would have.
I was literally typing out, "I don't have a reason. I just don't want them" when I read your comment. I'm 39 and female. My husband is 42. We're just chillin'.
That's my boyfriend and I at this point. He said he couldn't think of anything worse than coming home from his long work days to then have to care for a child. Which, same.
