Childfree communities just tend to be rant-based (aside from the contraceptive issues which are also posted to communities of that nature, which are relevant to our interests), because like any relative minority, it's extremely annoying to have to defend your choice/direction at every turn.

It's terribly wearing to have to put up with a constant when not if on the subject from people who feel differently to you. It grinds you down to have to deal with idiots going 'oh you will' or who give you a variety of irritating comments when presented with your answer to their question of children. It's different when it's you're own, you're selfish, you won't feel like that when you find the right man/woman, you obviously hate children (which isn't always the case)... ugh.

They're just places to vent because having that kind of behaviour directed at us for having a life choice that doesn't even affect the people around us in any way is really frustrating. Childfree people would seem less repulsive to the childless and the parents around us if, when they ask and we tell them we don't want kids, they refrained from making unfair, demeaning and foul comments about our choice. If they went 'oh, all right' we wouldn't need to discuss the issues of the lifestyle with like-minded people. It's simply catharsis.

Obviously the extreme individuals who use offensive words to describe parents make the rest of us look bad, but you often get that sort of thing in any group and it isn't representative of all of us as a whole.
