Re: Who are your favorite adult female characters who don't have or want kids?

This will be a throwback, but Auntie Macaser from The Big Comfy Couch. I mean she always checked in on Lunette, so maybe she counts as "her kid", but the lady was always off on am adventure! Seeing new things, going through new experiences! But she would always come back to Lunette when she needed help. Shout out to Granny Garbanzo, who I think also didn't have any kids!

Adding Carmen San Diego to this list.

AND, problematic as she may have been, I looked up to Auntie Mame (Rosalind Russell movie). Granted, another aunt character who takes in a kid, but otherwise is super ~bohème~ and avant garde and just completely out there, ahead of the trends and always exploring.

A special shout out to Ms. Honey, from Matilda, who also takes in a kid and works with them (lol, this may actually be completely the opposite of your ask)...

I'm looking back and I think the aunt character was who I wanted to be as a kid -- when playing house, I wanted to be auntie, babysitter, or teacher. Not the mom, because that implied a dad, and it also implied certain responsibilities. Lol. I guess the only one that really counts for you would be Carmen San Diego (maybe Auntie Mame too, as she was definitely like kids? Wtf am I supposed to do with this?) but...none of the aunties seemed to plan on having kids, the kids just kinda fell into their laps and they rose to the occasion as best they could.
