An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! ๐ต๐ญ
Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

Ako rin. While karamihan sa friends and family members ko child-free, they're not in the same boat as the typical card-carrying child-free that are just as annoying and toxic as those who keep on pestering singles/couples when they're getting kids.
Tapos napanood ko pa yung kumakalat na vid about gen-Zs, and I just facepalmed hard on how cliche the answers were. Tbf, the "survey" was done in bad faith because why would you be asking inexperienced kids about something that's a product of adult/serious relationships? Lmao.
I'm childfree myself, mostly by circumstance, but also partly by principle. Mostly, I adhere to a "if you think you're up to it, best of luck!" kind of a stance. However, yeah, yung iba dun sa subs na yun (also /r/antinatalism) are just a bit too toxic in their beliefs to the point that it's alienating.
