So here's an actual question which may or may not be of consequence.

I've seen a lot of random forum threads and complaints made by women, bemoaning the fact that "men won't date single mothers". Yes well screw you lady; I don't like children.

But I may be acquainted with a man I find nothing wrong with except that he has a spawn he keeps company on weekends. At some point I thought it'd work because I don't have any need to be around people every day, every hour; but apparently the opinion was that we needed to be introduced.

At which point I fled. I don't think what I did was wrong, considering I had given ample warning considering my view on reproduction and the results of such, and sure, I'm cruel not to desire the company of noisy small humans.

So the reason it's not MEN making these complaints; is it just that all the other females around are far less hostile than I am? Is there ANY way I could explain to this guy that yes, we had a good thing going, and I might consider going back to it even, with a guarantee that I would never be exposed to the fruit of your loins ever again? Or is that simply a terrible thing to say to a parent?
