It is a joke. People will openly tell you "we're trying for a baby."
What that actually means is "we're fucking like rabbits", and the fact that that's socially okay to say is kinda funny.
This is an SNL skit about two gay men trying for a baby: https://youtu.be/v7PYpysL_dI?si=AfIRnvUkFoH2rINu
This has nothing to do with disliking kids. It's just poking fun at how we euphemise things sometimes.
On another note, I really fucking hate kids lol. I'm so glad I'll never have them. How much I loathe them is nowhere near how obnoxious people get about their kids. They make them their whole personality way more than I ever will make being child free mine.
Pretty sure this is what most people call a joke.
Thank you for saying that. I loathe the child free people, and I don't have kids. They're all so stringent!
