As a woman who does not want children, I would hate to hear this. While more often than not, I'm told I'm either being immature or that I don't know what I want yet for saying I don't want children in my early 20's, I also don't want to get pats on the back for standing up for my autonomy. This whole thing reeks of gross self-congratulation.
