Guys, I can take the cake on this one.
I'm Catholic. Catholicism is all about babies. The purpose of marriage is the procreation and education of children. Love and affection is secondary. And Catholicism condemns the use of artificial birth control, so Catholic families who follow that teaching are usually huge. Off the top of my head, I know families with 12-15 kids. Yep.
The best part? I'm sterile. I can't have kids.
I'm perfectly fine with that, though. I don't actually want to have children. I accept my biological situation and I am content.
However, that isn't enough for Catholics - apparently to be a real Catholic, I need to adopt or foster children. **NOTE: Catholicism does NOT teach that sterile or infertile couples must adopt or foster. They are welcome to marry and grow in holiness with their spouses. However, I have been told in OBOB that my heart is closed to God and that I am not "open to life" (a very grave sin in Catholicism) because I am content with my biological reality. That hurt me very, very badly. The implication was that I must be hellbound because I do not want children. All because my reproductive system doesn't work.
I think I win this thread. Not that there is a competition or anything.
In short, yes, I am severely pressured to have children - all the time. And I am viewed as a second-rate citizen by other Christians (Catholic and protestant alike) because I cannot have them.
I try not to let it hurt me, but sometimes it is difficult.
