Sleazy,

Interesting thought to share with all of us....thank you It's nice to see that women aren't the only ones that get leveled with the 'biological clock' bit alone. But, maybe it isn't entirely a biological process. During most of my 20s I honestly thought that I never really wanted to have kids -- hence the dual-use for condoms.

But, the closer I got to my 30s the more I realized that much of my desire to delay having kids was based on a lot of pragmatic issues -- things like having a child with someone out of love and want....and not need; being financially stable enough to support my child even if it was on my own; and having enough of my own shit together, in terms of personal and intellectual development, that I could give my child the happiest, healthiest mom possible.

The more those things solidify for me...the more 'ready', at least mentally, I become with the whole idea.
