Daddy dilemma

My fiancee is 70 percent against kids. The clock is ticking, and it's up to me to convince her to do something I'm not sure about either.

    go get the 27 year old

    and leave the few women who don't want kids for those of us who don't want them either.

    larry's girlfriend sounds perfect for me. beautiful, smart, talented, no urge to have kids - what's not to like? i'd be happy to trade her for any or all of the women i meet (of all ages) who won't consider dating someone who doesn't want kids.

    don't get me wrong, breeders of the world. go forth and procreate. i, however, have never wished to do so. i just wish there were more women that didn't want them, as i know i don't. it puts me at a decided dating disadvantage.
