Could it be possible that one would never see themselves getting married and having kids?

Same here, as in the end of the family line. I'm an only child. Consequently, I've heard the word "selfish" used a lot.

I never did understand why people claim it's selfish to not have children. It's not like there's some kind of moral obligation to the community to have children, as though I'm harming someone if I choose not to have children.

The "only child" comment is interesting. If it was important to your parents to have grandchildren, they could have chosen to have 6 or 7 children instead of one, to increase the odds.

I thought most men wanted kids to carry on their name. Quite shocked right now but well ... ^^

I'm not "most men", I go my own way and don't run with the herd..
