And whoever said that the Western world is anti-family, apparently hasn't been to this country.
No one is calling you selfish. If what you do still benefits and helps to raise our children as part of the bigger village then you are still making a contribution to how they grow. It's not for anyone else to dictate to you what you do with your life or more importantly your body. The choice and decision is yours so no one can force you to have a child.

There are just deper coniderations that some of us who've gone through the process and sometimes complications of having children can identify with. I overstand where you;re coming from when yuo say we aren't just baby makers and yes even though there's so much more to being a woman than having children, for me having children is one of things I know I was meant to do. That's all.

Can you elaborate on your point about anti family please. I don't overstand your point.
