The title of an article on MSN from Redbook: Is Being Childfree By Choice Selfish?
The subtitle of said article: When a married couple is childfree by choice, it seems there's a lot of explaining to do about why they're not having children. Even in big Hollywood movies like Sex and the City 2.

Reading this title reminded me of a professor I had in college for a short story class. She was an author and had published several books herself, I liked her. One day in class she made a comment that the media is obsessed with celebrity women and their babies. And I was like, "hmm...I think it's more like the media is obsessed with celebrity and they latch on to anything about their lives that they can. These women are having children as a natural course in their lives." It was pretty obvious that being of a certain age she had sorted of perverted the situation to fit her insecurities about not having children.

And it's like, to all you ladies out there who are worried about havin' babies or not havin' babies because of what other people will think. Get over it. If you want them, have them. If you don't, enjoy a blissfully and significantly less stressful life than those who do.

And as a word of caution:
If You Cant Feed Your Baby (Yeah, Yeah)
Then Don't Have A Baby (Yeah, Yeah)
And Don't Think Maybe (Yeah, Yeah)
If You Can't Feed Your Baby (Yeah, Yeah)
You'll Be Always Tryin'To Stop That Child From Cryin'
Hustlin', Stealin', Lyin'
Now Baby's Slowly Dyin'

And finally:
You're A Vegetable,
You're A Vegetable
Still They Hate You,
You're A Vegetable
You're Just A Buffet,
You're A Vegetable
They Eat Off Of You,
You're A Vegetable

I can't post a photo. I google imaged "baby" and was just totally grossed out/disappointed in what I saw, I had to stop looking and try to forget the images.
