Marriage doesn’t create an instant requirement to have children.
If you and a spouse want kids, adopt.
Some people don’t want kids at all.Comment Hidden ( show ) -

It depends on where you live.
In some societies, women who are unable to produce children are seen as worthless.
In Western societies, that's not the case, although there are some men who feel strongly that they want to have children, and there are some subcultures (religious nuts, mainly) which view large families as the ideal.
For the majority of guys in Western societies, your inability to have children wouldn't be a negative thing. In fact, lots of guys would see it as a good thing, since neither of you would need to worry about birth control.

A majority of people do want children. Plenty of guys would see it as a bad thing, it's not just some subcultures. Men want children more than women..."among singles without children under 18, more men (24%) than women (15%) say they want children." It's really an incorrect and old fashioned idea that women are more baby crazy than men. Studies show that men tamper with birth control more and that men would be secretly more happy if an unintended pregnancy occured, contrary to what most people might think. That's not to say that men want to be active good fathers, just that they do tend to really, really want kids.
I also wouldn't say that "In Western societies, that's not the case" because there absolutely is tons of pressure on women to have kids. If you don't have kids, you're constantly defending it. It might be worse in other parts of the world but it's still pretty bad here.

Statistics show that 90% of statistics quoted in internet posts are made up on the spot.
In any case, I don't see how 24% of single men and 15% of single women without children equates to "a majority of people". I also wonder how many of those people are still keen on kids once they're in a relationship if they consider the huge hits to family finances and personal freedom if they were to have a kid. (Although I do understand that the question of whether or not to have a child often is not considered in a rational way.)
I do agree that women in particular are often under a lot of pressure from their families and others to have children.
I have a ten year-old daughter, and I'm very happy she's in our lives, but it does sometimes seem that people with kids pressure those without because they're desperately trying to convince themselves that they made the right decision when they had a child. I suspect that's also why parents routinely minimise how much having a child completely changes your life, and definitely not only in positive ways.

Surveys can be useful, depending. Highlight the text and Google it to see the survey, I didn't make it up. You can't post working links here anyway so I didn't bother since you'd have to highlight it and search either way.
"I don't see how 24% of single men and 15% of single women without children equates to "a majority of people"
Never said it did. That refers to SINGLE people WITHOUT children, the point was to illustrate that men really want kids, quite possibly more than women do (OP is single looking for a single man presumably, so...?). You don't really need a survey to see that people WITH children probably wanted them at least most of the time. More people do have kids than don't. So, it's not really that hard to figure out.

any guy that didn't like condoms (most guys) or offsprings (some guys) would love it.

If a man wants to be in a relationship with you it won't matter to him that you can't have children and if he wanted kids he would be more than happy to consider adopting. That is just my opinion.

Of course they would. I can't have children either, although I'm kind of a bad example, it's never been something I've been concerned with.
Don't let it affect your self esteem and all will be good. 😊

Sure, I don't want kids. my gf isn't sterile but she doesn't want kids either, and we are a wonderful couple, I don't want annoying kids to ruin our private love life, let alone finance their needs. The world is already too over populated with 8 billion people, the less kids born, the better...

Some men don't want children, or would be content with adopting or having an egg donor from another woman. Some men are infertile themselves. That might be your best bet when pursuing potential partners. Just don't think you can't get a quality man who will be a good provider, there's plenty of perfectly decent men who don't want kids or will pursue other options with you.
Some men do want children, and their own biological children at that. However, if you're upfront fairly early-on in dating, they can make the decision if it's a turn-off before you both waste too much time together. It just depends on the man.

I think its worth considering that not all men are fertile, infact men struggling to father children is on the rise.
Don't worry about it OP, there's always adoption and artificial methods of conception if you want kids.

It's definitely a deal breaker for many but some men wouldn't care. Just be honest about it upfront.

Yea being sterile is quite nice, at least I think so, anyways many men will still be interested, just put it out there o be things get going that you cannot carry your own child, how the conversation proceeds depends entirely on both of your guys desire for children or lack of desire, my bf knew a couple of like 5 years who broke up because he wanted kids she did not they couldn't see eye to eye on it. The guy was a scum bag anyways though, worked part time as a ice cream truck driver with no desire to actually get a real job. Ppint being plenty of guys will marry you, just be honest about your inability and your desires, just cause you cantg carry a child doesn't mean you cant have a child

Get a woman who'll carry for you. I have a baby girl and with my girlfriend and that's what I wanted and very special. Nothin beats the smile from a little baby. Good luck with your choice if that's what you would consider. Hope you can find a man that will come to your terms

Why not? Firstly, it is for love. The children comes after that. But a man should know, in case he needs children more than a wife.

if you are young and pretty you can find a forty year old man willing to marry you. On the other hand , if you are over forty , and sterile , why in they fuck would they marry you? they dont need your money. And they can choose from hundreds of over fourty cat ladies for sex.
