    My best friend just got engaged to his gf who cannot have kids due to some sort of genetic condition with her uterus. He said they will probably adopt (good for them). This got me thinking though, would I be able to do that? I'm not sure. I would want to raise a child that was my own flesh and blood... I would want to raise a child with a woman that was BOTH of ours in equal parts. I know it doesn't have to be that way, but it's just what I would want. I'm not sure I could marry a girl who couldn't have kids herself.

    What about you?

    (On the flipside)

    I absolutely don’t want children so it wouldn’t affect me. My boyfriend doesn’t either (long term relationship) so it all works out.

    I think adoption is awesome. I think your own kids would be awesome too. Everyone will feel differently depending on what they want. There’s no wrong answer.

    Maybe the best solution for you is different than for your friend.

    Maybe if I loved her enough, in which case I'd adopt, but no as a general rule. If I knew from the get go that she was infertile then I would not be interested in a long term relationship.

    I would marry someone who is infertile if and only if they agree to a pre-nup.

    Respect yourself and don't rescue a second-rate female because it will really backfire on you in the end. No fatties, uglies, lazies, crazies, sickies.

    I'm older and don't want kids so yeah, I would marry a woman who can't conceive. I might even prefer it.

    ?

    So you'd marry any woman who'd agree to a pre-nup?

    Plenty of women from third world countries willing to take you up on that offer in an instant.

    Sure, just adopt and skip the baby phase for kids. How fun is it taking care of a baby who sucks all your free time and can't help themselves? None!

    I'd get my rocks off with her knowing there was no need for family planning until I was ready for a family, then show her the prenup and say bye bye.

    Couldn't you just take more selfies and satisfy that narcissistic itch? Why are more couples not adopting?

    If she has good eggs, I'd find a surrogate.

    What I meant to say... I’d marry someone who is infertile, agreed to a pre-nup and has no next of kin or family. ?
