Yeah tell me about it. There are 4 kids in my family and my two brothers aren't having kids (one got sterilized and the other is gay). My sister is in her mid 30s and by the looks of it, she isn't having kids either even though she's married

I'm the youngest (in my mid 20s), and I'm really starting to feel the pressure of being the one responsible for continuing the bloodline. So yeah I totally get you

    continuing the bloodline.

    That's a eugenicists brain worm. Kill that idea.

    Like if you have an interesting family history and culture its cool to pass that sort of thing on but that doesn't need to be given to someone spawned of your loins.

    I don't have an interesting family history lol. It's less about a "bloodline" and more just the expectation that at least someone in the family will give my parents grandkids

    Sorry, I shoulda phrased that better, perhaps "bloodline" was the wrong word
