I actually think it's women who are looked down upon if they enter their mid 30s and they have no children...
A healthy man can easily have children into his 50s.
Also society is less likely to care about a man not having children, as long has he is successful or has a purpose in his community...
It's mostly your family or close friends that keep trying to push you into having kids, because they think that is what brings happiness to your life... |

People who judge me can take a hike too  |

I've spawned no crotch fruit.
But I'm a Dad.
If your definition of a real man is someone who has fathered a child then maybe some should man the fuck up and actually show an interest in their offspring instead of avoiding them since birth.

"Does society consider you less of a man if you don't have kids? Sometimes I think people look at pity at you if you don't and other guys seem to see it as a failing? Am I wrong?"
I’ve not heard of any negative comments towards those without kids. I’m sure no one sits in judgement about such things, everyone is too busy with their own lives OP |

"God, why would people think such a thing! I've never encountered that. No-one is less of anything if they don't have kids.
Apparently I'm a monster for not wanting kids. It's wild."
Oh ffs. People are bonkers! |

I don’t think you’re wrong although I’m my experience with others this isn’t the case. In my experiences, men have the freedom to choose and be open about whether they want kids and not feel as though it is attached to how much of man they are. |

I wouldn't think that at all.
But then, I was constantly judged for not having kids, even though I announced from a very young age that I never wanted them.
In fact, as someone above said, I'd class you lucky. Most of my friends with kids do nothing but moan about them.....  |

I remember my late uncle having rumours about him being gay because he was 40 odd and not married or a father.
Forget what society thinks OP |

"I’d have thought most people would consider you extremely fortunate "
This is actually the feedback I get from breeding couples in my social circle 
Personally, I would have liked to have had children so I usually tell them the grass is always greener. |

Fuck what anyone else thinks. I don't have kids and have never wanted them.
Most parents I know seem to look at my lifestyle with envy. Not that I'd ever suggest they were wrong to have kids. |
