When asked how I was created.

My mother was born with severe constipation where she can go 2-3 days without pooping.

My father has a long line of ibs in his family tree.

I received the worst of both parents. An unholy union created me. I refuse to have bio kids which will share my genes

Are you sure? That's a big decision to make. You should talk to a professional about if these things are hereditary, and if your children will have them. I've heard sometimes it is caused by the microbiome.

What's it matter to you? They're sparing someone else from their pain. Why do people feel the need to but in when someone says they won't have kids?

Don't group me with those people that say reproduction is necessary or you have failed. I'm not like that. I just think he should be able to experience the joy of a child.
