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 Idiocracy 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. DrFishcake (talk) 09:01, 13 September 2008 (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.Email/User:Maersayer 23:31, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
