Any men in their 20s know they only want to adopt & *NOT* have bio kids?
(F, late 20s)
Not necessarily looking for advice. Just looking for some confirmation/uplifting personal anecdotes from men who are of childbearing age but would be willing to/seeking to partner with a woman who does want kids but does not want to carry and has her mind set on adoption (or at the very least non-traditional forms of parenting). As a woman who would very much like to be partnered in the next 5 years, I have a hard time grappling with the fact that this one non-negotiable might put a real wrench in any future prospects. Open to going the parenthood route alone if I have to, but ideally don’t want to…
Any thoughts from women also in the same boat, stories from men making this choice for themselves, and general positivity on the topic are welcome! 🤍
