What Members Thought
Eh. I liked most of the essays well enough. I think it is a topic that needs to be addressed, for sure. I do not think anyone is selfish for not wanting to have children. I think if anyone is hesitant, they should NOT have children. It is too big a deal, and can mess up a kid too badly, not to be sure you want them. And I think it is absolutely wrong for anyone to give anyone else shit about a decision that is entirely personal. The gall of some people is remarkable. I enjoyed the essay by Geoff

lots of repetition (and at least two references to philip larkin), and i don’t get why a man’s essay ends the book when the majority of writers are women. but there are some beautiful essays in here (and some funny ones).
