The #Childfree Woman trope needs a SERIOUS update.
"Society still has a problem with the child free woman. Despite all the advances that have been made in terms of women’s rights, motherhood is still depicted as the idealized end goal for all women, to the point where depictions of childfree women in movies and TV often feel reductive or even vilified. The childfree woman desperately needs an upgrade to reflect society’s changing attitude towards the decision to not be a parent."

Very insightful podcast on the beauty of living childfree, on living slowly, in nature instead of in urban settings.

#ChildfreeChoice
Je suis toujours surprise quand, lorsque je dis que je vis seule et que je n’ai pas d’enfant, de la réaction de femmes (het) de 40 - 50 ans.
« Oh t’as bien raison »
« Si c’était à refaire je ne referai pas »
« On nous a vendu un mythe du bonheur mais au final on trime. »
« Te marie pas ça sert à rien »

Ça me rend triste et ça me fout en rogne ce que le patriarcat a fait à ces femmes.
Les entendre parler du père de leurs enfants aussi là 😭

Here's my #introduction:
I live in The Netherlands. I work as a self-employed campaign and communications consultant for world-changing organisations like Fairphone, Partij voor de Dieren (Party for the Animals), ASN Bank and Consumentenbond. I have way too many interests and am childfree by choice :)
