Meet SteffO

Purple WomenTM have really come out of the woodwork this week -- um, or should I say closet? I was so pleased to correspond with several childfree women by email. I encouraged SteffO to elevate our dialogue and contribute the next post.

Her topic is unique, though her situation may not be.

Steff Osborne, 31, lives in Gainesville, Florida, and is a counselor and activist in the local mental health community.

A big hi to Steff! Looks like we could be neighbors : )

I'm new here, myself. I haven't ruled out having kids entirely, but I don't see it in my near future. I'm in my mid-20's and married, but can't imagine taking on such an added responsibility and expense right now.

Meanwhile, some of my friends from back home started in high school and have multiple children now. Some of my current friends are pregnant, and while I'm happy for them, part of me is glad that it's not me pregnant.

Fortunately, I still have plenty of single, childless friends -- not that I don't appreciate my mommy friends, it's just nice that I'm not in the minority quite yet.
