:lol: Oh no!! 24?! 8O

Just kidding! You speak as if it's old age. :D

I think sometimes women reach their 30s or 40s before they start wanting children. I never want that to happen to me.

Well, it's a fact that the teen birth rate is down in the US. Teen abortion is down. It seems that many teens of today (or their parents...) are doing something right.

I don't think it wise to discount hormones. Maybe some might not be so affected, but it's like everything; some people are more sensitive, some have hormonal imbalances, etc... All people are different and affected differently. Hormones are a lifelong issue for many people.

And what does it matter if a post is old? Isn't the question still valid? Should a new post be started and the old answers thrown out? Aren't the old answers valid as well?

It doesn't particularly matter.

Can men vote now? :lol:
If not, someone will protest over it saying it's equal rights. :wink:
Also does kidnapping count as wanting children? Never said they had to be your own. :razz:

I had a dream last night that I had a baby and I didn't know what I was doing and tried everything that I knew but still felt really weird about it. I breast fed the baby and my mum was gushing but I was looking down at the scene really weirded out and the baby's mouth kept slipping off. Everything was bizarre.
It's dreams like these that calm any broody bouts, they're like mental warnings that I'm no where near mature enough for kids yet.

But my femaleness rears its ugly head enough other times, ugh.

There's nothing wrong with being female. It's a beautiful thing.
