Why does my guy friend ask me how many kids I want?

[Anonymous]

asked more than once, and after says how many he wants

Generally I say it's none of thier buiness unless they want to fork over the money to raise them.

Just like when my wife was pregnant and people asked if I wanted a boy or a girl, I told them to stop fixating on my child's genitalia. Some people are so WEIRD doing that.

umm OK kinda weird answer.. doesn't really answer my question

[Ugliness]

Then let me be more basic. If someone asked me how many kids I want I say it's none of their business. Is that any clearer? Sorry if I went off on a tangent.

[Asker]

he's just asking it's not wrong to ask I have no problem in him asking I just wanted to know why he asks

[Ugliness]

I guess that's the difference between a friend asking and a total nosy stranger which is what I used to get. That's why I adopted such an answer (and ones that are hopefully more offensive than the one they asked of ME.)

"Do you want a boy or a girl?"

I'd respond "why are you fixated on the genitalia of my unborn child?"

That always shut them up.

maybe he's just really paternal and wants a family. but don't worry, I'm sure he's not planning one in his head with you lol

[Asker]
