Nosy person: “Why don’t you want kids? Don’t you like children?”

Me: “Yes, I do like children. That’s why I’m doing what I think is the kindest thing possible - refusing to bring any into this world.”

Then the conversation ends, or shifts to a different subject.

This is the realist version of this meme I've ever seen.

Main reason I am. Second is I'm lazy and want to keep responsibilities to a minimum.

Plus we deny our masters new wage slave crops to exploit.

That's not lazy, that's perfectly reasonable. You shouldn't have to take care of children all the time for years.
