I'm definitely excited for kids, my sister just had her 2nd, so I do tend to get a little baby fever. I've been with my dude for 7 years now, not married, but might as well be. I guess we'll just take it as it comes, I just started my own business this year so it's not real conducive to starting a family, but it will be, someday.

Awesome! I'm in Los Angeles too -- food truck capital it seems. Best of luck!!
I'll come check it out sometime if it's ever near me. Try and bring it by Santa Monica/3rd Street Promenade sometime during the middle of the week and I'll guarantee a visit

It's funny. I have a million names picked out for kids that I don't ever want to have. I suppose I just like figuring out cute names.
I'm only 21 but I'm pretty sure I don't ever want kids. I'd much rather have a herd of puppies than kids, even if it means I get weird looks.
So many. Some of my earliest crushes are Lucy Lawless and Grace Jones.
Current ones would have to include Christina Hendricks (dem titties), Beyonce(dem legs), Salma Hayek (dat everything), and a few others. Cote de Pablo is another big one of mine.

Question for my fellow gals, am I the only one who loathes Sex and the City?

Never watched it. I can say that I loathe all the adverts for it, though. I really tend to dislike things that are marketed directly towards women. Most romantic comedies make me nauseous. They're just so corny. And cosmo is just plain insulting at times, though it can be good for a laugh.
Kate Winslet, Tina Fey, Sade. I definitely wouldn't kick any of them out of my bedPinko Marx said:
I watched SatC back when it originally aired, and I enjoyed it well enough. I don't know how it's held up, but it was better television than some of the other shows on during that era. Except for Felicity, of course.Devolution said:

30 seems like the perfect age. Any later and your chances of conceiving drop dramatically, but I don't think I'd be financially ready before then. My boyfriend keeps hinting things like "wouldn't you rather have a sports car and go on overseas trips every year?" but then he's only 19. I certainly don't want kids yet, but you know, I see it as something that will be important eventually. After the overseas trips and the sports car
Would definitely take on my husband's name when I get married. I'd rather not give my kids a double-barrelled name. Plus it just feels right for me. Even though my last name now is pretty kick-ass.

This is my problem with a lot of Asian romance actually. Manga, Movies, Tv shows. All of it is so naive. I feel more like I'm reading about/ watching middle schoolers instead of people in high school/ university. I've sort of given up on a lot of it.
Nana is a wonderful exception though.

I think I might wait until 32. My mom seems to have waited until 32-33, and had her last kid at 37.. And everything was fine so... I AM SURE IT WILL WORK FOR ME TOO! I wouldn't want to start having kids too much later than 35 though.. the risk for genetic defects starts shooting up and that would be.. very stressful.
And yeah, lots of Asian romance is very... naive. But I kind of liek that in old school magical kung-fu fantasy series because I like that it's not sex-focused.. but in manga and stuff, it gets too trite and most of the girls come off as ultra nincompoops. Might be why I haven't read much manga or watched much anime lately. I want more adventure stuff with heroines so I don't have to be inundated with poorly conceived romance stuff (or can expect not to be!), but still get to watch girls kick butt.

What else can you do though, really? Its crazy for him to expect you to still be waiting for him 7 years later. Did he take it okay?

My husband is trying to push for one, loooool. Can you imagine the shame? I had no idea there were so many Arabs on here
on the subject of kids' names my husband and I both want something not too hard to pronounce but for me I want it to be undeniably Arabic. One of my friends named their poor kid Abdeljaber. And she grew up in this country. Everyone calls him AJ which is cute, but dude, spare your kid the trouble! cloudwalking said:
My initial username idea was "Mrs. Modus" and I was going to take his old rocket knight avatar and just stick a pink bow and bikini on it but he vetoed that pretty quickly. I thought it was funny!
Kitsunebaby said:
I have caught it on TV a couple times and found it fairly entertaining but I hate the idea of it, if that makes sense. The whole "OMG I AM A WOMAN I WORSHIP SHOOOOOES" thing irritates me. I like shoes and have a lot of them but the stereotype of "I LOVE SHOES AND SINFUL, DECADENT LUSTFUL CHOCOLATE BECUZ I AM WOMAN" drives me nuts. The chocolate thing probably doesn't come up on Sex and the City, but you get what I'm saying. It's all part of the same dumb stereotype.

My bf is here on GAF too We're a GAF couple!
Anyways I think I might have a genuine phobia of pregnancy. The very thought of having a kid, and the physical changes I'd have to go through to push one out make me ill. I'm only 24 and I figure I have plenty of time to figure out when I want a kid. I know the BF eventually wants one, but right now I'm too career focused to want to give it up for a child yet. I have the feeling you give your kids all of you, or don't have them. Otherwise you're a shitty parent.

What did he say? I'm sure he'll get over it. I used to have online friends that I was once really close with as well but we all sorta moved on as well.SouSouRocket said:My husband is trying to push for one, loooool. Can you imagine the shame? I had no idea there were so many Arabs on here
Hahaha yeah I thought I was the only Arab! And oh my god lmao, Abdeljaber, I would never do that to my kid XD My friend recently had a baby girl and named her Elina, which I think is nice for a girl's name
(She actually wanted to name her 'Alaina' but her husband preferred it with an E). I would love to give my kids Arabic names but I want to use the really uncommon ones, and also the ones that aren't as hard to pronounce. Heh, I'll see haha.thebaroness

Sorry to hear about the guy you had to let down. I know it was a shitty situation, but you can't feel too bad. It is not your fault. I had a very similar situation a few years back.
There was this guy I e-dated when I was 13, he lived in Canada and I got to see him when I would visit my grandparents. So in my instance he had it even worse for me since we had hung out in person. Anyways over the years we just drifted apart, we stopped e-mailing. He contacted me when I was about 19, and I had to tell him I had moved on. ALOT had changed in my life. I was in college, and I had met someone. He was pretty crushed, but you have to give them closure or else it'll just make the situation worse. Everything will turn out ok in the end. Time will heal his wounds, don't let him make you feel any guilt.
hmmmm who am I lesbian for? Definitely Mary Elizabeth Winstead. I <3 her

I'm a GAF couple too! My husband is on here.
I had my child young (23) or at least I felt like it was young. I think a lot of women feel that pregnancy is...not wonderful. I was actually severely allergic to my own pregnancy hormones so it was definitely disturbing to me.

See that's the kind of thing that terrifies me. I'm terrified of the nausea, cramps, skin stretching, bloating, vaginal tearing, pooping in front of people. I honestly don't know if I can ever get through it, or if I'd just settle and adopt.

Oh god. Without going into too much detail...most of those are not an issue. Except for Nausea....that sucks. But adoption? It has its own struggles.

i thought i was crazy for thinking like this, but apparently i'm not the only one! the thought of pregnancy terrifies me... the whole body changes, pain, stretch marks, weight that perhaps won't go away easily, scarring, vaginal stitches, the whole nine yards...
a lot of the times if i tell this to someone who's already a mom, they're like "oh but it's all worth it once you have that little bundle of joy in your arms!" like that's gonna change my mind about it.

Hahah yeah I think we're in the same mindset. I get the same thing from people I know who think I'm crazy. They act like, "Why WOULDN'T you want to go through all that for the wonders of childbirth!" But it all just makes me shudder
I know adoption has it's own challenges and struggles, but I think I'm more prepared for dealing with paperwork than putting my body through that. Who knows what I'll be like in 10 years? All I know is I'm 24 now and I'm nowhere near ready for any of it.

But I am not sure I want to risk the pain of sudden vaginal tearing.. GAH. Just thinking about it made me twitch.
Wonder how I'll feel about breastfeeding. Seems like a good idea... but also seems like a huge pain in the butt to keep doing or pumping milk. Wish childrearing weren't such a chore. xD I just want babies to play with and teach and carry on my legacy!

AMEN! I keep saying if I could just skip the first 2 years (including the nine months carrying) I would be much more enthusiastic about having a kid. I want to converse and teach it things, but I want to skip all that diaper and breast feeding nonsense.
It doesn't help that I was just playing Catherine and fought this bitch of a boss:

I had the lezbo celeb convo with a friend last night and honestly could not come up with a single chick I would... would.
NOT ONE.
I thought I was maybe a little curious but I guess not. :/
