== Political activism == |
|
|
|
|
|
I marked the "Political activism" section with OR as it makes speculations at several points without pointing to sources (e.g., "This discontent is not widespread among childfree people, and as such does not translate into a unified political vision."). This may very well be the case, but I'd like to see something to back it up. :) |

==Portrayal in media== |
|
|
:I removed the reference to '']'' in the media section ("The opening scene of the dystopian film Idiocracy suggests that an inverse relationship between intelligence and birth rates will result in a bleak future for humanity."), because although it is technically correct that the film does suggest that, the couple shown in the case study, "Carol and Trevor" weren't CF. They talk about having kids when the time's right, although in the film it's never seen to happen. ] (]) 09:01, 13 September 2008 (UTC) |

Also, the Sex and the City quote is basically irrelevant. "Pondering" single life versus married life is not at all the same as deciding to be childfree.] (]) 02:47, 3 June 2009 (UTC) |

== Another thing to add to "motivation"== |
|
|
I refuse to have kids for fear of pedophiles. You never know. It could be a friend, family member, teacher, etc. |
|
|
|
|
|
And child kidnappers. People who can't have kids, who kidnap and murder pregnant women, to steal their babies. Just a suggestion.]/] 23:31, 17 September 2008 (UTC) |

== Trait wording == |
|
|
|
|
|
Someone from IP ] keeps changing the wording: |
|
|
<pre> |
|
|
childfree people tend to be less conventional, more highly educated, and professional |
|
|
</pre> |
|
|
to: |
|
|
<pre> |
|
|
childfree people tend to be eccentric, intellectual, and professional |
|
|
</pre> |
|
|
The term "intellectual" does ''not'' mean the same thing as "more highly educated"; nor does "eccentric" mean the same thing as "less conventional". Myself and ] have reverted this change twice, but the aforementioned individual has now reverted our revisions twice. |

To ]: please '''do not''' change that line again until you have made a case for it here. Thank you. |
