Single Dad by Choice

[@strawberriesblueberries2258]

Single mothers and single fathers are beautiful in my eyes.

[@cassandramitch433]

There's many single dads out there who do a good job of raising their kids, and lots of single moms who also do a good job of raising their kids.

[@inkerikavantera]

This is so cool! Bless his heart. Single straight men should not wait forever though- statistically women tend to choose their partner within 2-3 years of their own age. Plus the sperm quality tends to decline starting from 45. I am a Choice Mom. 🙌🏻💓

[@1legend517]

Some single men aren't waiting. They just can't find the right person! In my 20s nobody wanted me or they were all taken. Now in my 30s, they all have kids already, don't want kids or can't have kids. And I've tried a tonne of dating apps only to be matched with trans women, psychopaths or women that are 5 to 10 years my senior. I've officially given up.

[@1legend517]

It's usually women who have the choice of when or if they want children. Not men.

[@jamesrick7351]

thats average people. handsome successful men can and easily get younger women

[@64ELTURCO]

I'm a single, straight man, at the age of 30. I can't imagine to ever want to have kids that could be taken away from me, even if temporarily. That's why I'm researching future possibilities. But it's illegal in my country

I'm a Single mom to a Autistic teenage Male that I love Unconditional. With God we take things one day at a time. However I do believe that a two Parent home with Mom and Dad present is much better for raising children. 🙏🙏💙💜

[@sparklingpersonality87]

I love this!! So beautiful! It’s so silly that single men can’t adopt. The gender discrimination (both for men and women) that exists in our society is so disheartening. I’m a queer woman who is having a baby on my own. I hope things change in the future for more men to be able to do this. It shouldn’t cost a man $150k, but it shows your commitment. What lucky kids! Makes me think about maybe volunteering to be a surrogate. I want men to experience this, too.

[@jamesrick7351]

[@imaji4487]

At least no mother will steal them from you by law

[@joelrionstaves4684]

I'm not a proponent of single parenthood by choice, but I understand why men would want to take this route. They don't want to be deleted as a result of their children being used as weapons against them after a divorce.

[@1legend517]

There's literally no one to talk to about this. And it gets so depressing. No one cares about how we feel. I'll be 37 soon, and all my life I've been single. I know my only chance to have kids is with a young woman who isn't married, doesn't already have children and can actually have them. But I know realistically that's not going to happen. I don't want to adopt or become a step parent - i want my own biological children. So what do I do? The older I get the lonelier i get and the more depressed I'm getting. All my friends, cousins etc are married with kids and no one has ever wanted me. I never have anyone to spend time with. 😔

[@1legend517]

@Gisli Nair Thanks so much for that and for the kind words. Much appreciated. But I doubt things are going to change this year either.

[@jamesrick7351]

if you had money you could easily get a younger woman or get a surrogate

[@nativebabe9913]

@@1legend517 I'm sorry to hear that. As ridiculous as it may sound, consider hanging out in or near grocery stores or libraries for a couple of hours, there are plenty of wholesome women there. You can try charity events too. Usually guys don't find decent women at bars from what I heard. Just a suggestion.

[@1legend517]

@GabbyLove 💖 You're right about bars and nightclubs. I've been verbally abused, physically assaulted, rejected and just generally been treated like garbage. I gave up on that shallow scene a decade ago. I just want someone nice but can't seem to find that person. I think they're all taken.

[@nativebabe9913]

@@1legend517 Don't give up, great single women still exist, anyone/ anything worth having is worth waiting for. You just have to take chances, just remember, the quality of the places you go to for looking is the same quality of people you encounter. Don't worry about women perceiving you as creepy, you'll be surprised at how many women find you attractive. Just be yourself, shop or read in these places & you'll be fine.

there shouldn’t be laws. people should be allowed to become parents how they want to. together you determine how you want the terms to be, go before a judge and 💥 you’re a parent with unalienable rights.

With things like surrogacy, there needs to be laws. It has the potential to get very messy otherwise.

[@strawberriesblueberries2258]

People need to respect single mothers the same way they respect single fathers.

[@red_pandey]

You mean the reverse? Most people don't even know about single fathers

[@kykysmith446]

Exactly

[@strawberriesblueberries2258]

Ash I respect both.

[@strawberriesblueberries2258]

@Tashana Luda people don’t respect single mothers mostly. Single mothers are hated by society.

[@1legend517]

Really? I don't see any single mothers by choice getting hated for it. Quite the opposite. Society seems to be praising them for it even telling them that they don't need men in their lives. This is now a common occurrence for single women. The men being the sperm donors and having little to no involvement in their children's lives. Men on the other hand rarely ever get to become single fathers by choice because of our biology and that's why this is such a big deal. How many videos are on KZbin about single parenting for women? This is the one video on KZbin about men becoming a single father by choice and angry feminists like you are outraged about it.

[@1legend517]

I wish I had a child.. I'm depressed that I'm a single man and not a father.

[@stevens1-o7s]

Well that's because a lot of single mothers have their ex's on child support, so yeah it's less admirable when a guy is paying for your expenses VS being the guy who's raising the kid and paying for the expenses

[@icyunvme2400]

@@stevens1-o7s We are talking about single parents by CHOICE. Not people that separated in a relationship.

[@stevens1-o7s]

@@icyunvme2400 Hmm I guess I never really thought about the fact that there are women who just decide to have a baby with no relationship or anything, mainly just due to the fact that it's not really as beneficial to most women as it would be for a guy. I guess now that I think about it, it definitely is a lot easier for a woman to just go to a sperm bank and decide to get pregnant. I've never heard of a woman doing it that way before though, but single father surrogate cases are very rare so I can imagine that there's likely more cases of women just going to a sperm bank VS single men who get a surrogate. Most of the time when thinking about sperm banks I think about couples substituting a sperm donor in the case of the male being infertile, or same sex couples that need a sperm donor.

[@icyunvme2400]

@@stevens1-o7s Yeah some people like myself are aroace, but would still like to have kids. And I think the negative energy is directed more to women than men because of the single mother narratives and stereotypes.
