I plan on having a couple of children eventually, well that is if i can find someone willing to have children with me. I have pretty much always wanted to be a father.

There are also a LOT of personal reasons that go along with my decision.

Yes. I personally love the idea of eventually getting married, having children, and raising them. It's almost a little embarassing, it makes me feel like a ten-year-old girl sometimes... :oops:

I'd like to have two kids, maybe three at the most. But for at least two girls.

I'd love to have kids some day. As a Bisexual man i might or might not end up with a female who'll want kids. I know i love my two god children with all my heart and if my own off spring are any thing like Adam or Danielle i'd be a very proud parent.

Well you won't feel very sad if you find her cheating on you. :D

Oh yes, I understand that, I was just saying that you could, physically, bear children with no, problems.

Your decision is your own, and I'm not going to pry.

actually I wouldn't mind having children one day. But only when I meet the girl of my dreams. Wouldn't want any children to go through a divorce and all the fights in between. Also I would like to get a stable job, a good education before considering having kids. Don't want them not having a happy life. Wouldn't be able to live with myself if my family didn't have some safety, and security.

I'd like to have a child or two, perhaps three, but I'm kind of afraid of it. I might be a bad parent, the baby might have some disability, or I might not be prepared to raise one when they come. And they can be really annoying at times. Still, I have at least a decade before that will happen.

I would really like to have my own children, maybe even 3 or 4, but not while I'm still young and adventurous, although I don't want to wait until I'm middle aged either. I figure early to mid thirties I'd like to start having them, assuming I've found someone who I'd like to live with for decades by then :)

the choice to have kids is like a coin toss, there are so many pros and cons for children, having watched my two younger siblings grow up, i can name many many cons :P but i must admit theer are many positive aspects to kids

i dont really like kids terribly, mainly because theyre brats when theyre real young, and they're a financial drain when theyre my age (i'm rather guilty that i put this burden on my parents).

As for pride, i'd rather be proud of something that took more effort then "insert dick, thrust a bit".

oh and i forgot, I'm a total bottom so its not like i CAN have kids! :P

Don't have them.
Do want them -- trying to adopt.
Would raise them the best my wife and I know how, based on Biblical principles.

I grew up a single child and there were times when I wished I had a sibling, but never did like little kids much. When my best friends had a little girl, I thought "Great, now Im never going to get to hang out with them again!"

So, I see them a little less, but I adore their little girl. She has changed my life, so to speak. I will not be crushed if I never have a child, but I do look forward to the time when I might meet someone to build a family with.
