Ten Things a Woman Can Achieve Instead of Children

My interests aim wider than ‘normal’ sometimes and can even be quite risqué. I’m not saying extroverted sexuality is the ‘only’ thing to do instead of having kids (it can be fun in moderation), but I am saying that if you’re not going to have children, then you can afford to cut loose without shame or regrets!

So here’s some ideas, inspirations, and laughs:

1) Learn something new. Take a class, go to college (because you can either lose sleep over homework or kids, but usually not both).

2) Do crazy stuff, like an OCR, bungee jumping, or shark cage-diving (because you can be a little more dangerous with no children who depend on you).

3) Get your glam on and do some modelling for fun (because you won't feel guilty spending money on clothes, make-up, and hair-dos).

4) Sign up and compete in an amateur strip night (because you don't have to be a role model or worry your kids will find out about this in the future).

5) Have a pack of dogs (because they're easier to feed, you don't have to clothe them--if you don't want to--and they can join you on adventures by the age of one).

6) Be creative (because if you spend a whole day zoned-out drawing, no children will be lost or harmed in the process).

7) Own and grow your own library of books (because you'll actually have time to read them all).

8) Travel (there will still be a baby crying on the plane, but it won't be your baby, so enjoy those over-priced drinks).

9) Go for your dream job and don't fear being poor AF on that journey (because if you eat KD every night for dinner, you don't have to worry about stunting a developing body).

10) Be a kid yourself (buy the toys you always wanted, have your own Tickle Trunk full of costumes, and stay up past your bed time eating candy. You don't have to justify or explain any of it to any one).
