PORTRAITS

“It was all men making decisions about my body.”

Natasha, UK

“At some point, I was just like: fuck it, I am different.”

Cressida, Berlin

“I never felt like growing a baby inside of me.”

Ada, Berlin

“If there is something I regret, it is the fact that for so many years, I just didn’t know who I was.”

OUR COMMUNITY

“What an incredible community you’re building — thanks from the bottom of my heart for the work you do! 💗”
“So appreciate you and your education/advocacy/empathy/voice!”
“Thank you for all the hard and beautiful work you do every day since the creation of WAC! You cannot imagine how it feels for a young guy like me to finally meet a community who’s sharing my beliefs and my values. It has been so helpful to see that I’m not alone, I’m not weird, I’m not different.”
“Thanks for being such a great online community. I feel so heard!”
“Your page represents freedom in so may different ways - it’s a beautiful thing ❤️”
“It's amazing to see a movement like this take shape and grow, so thank you for what you've built and are doing.”
“I love what you're doing and find it so liberating and amazing to see content like this out here that makes me feel good about the choice I've made to remain childfree.”
“I love how much positivity you're spreading and what a strong community you're already built. Now I think I can proud to be childfree: for being true to myself instead of doing what was expected of me.”
“You've already made me prouder and happier of who I am and therefore stronger when facing discriminating questions or comments by others. 💪💪💪”
“It’s so hard to find humans who either aren’t judgmental, will actually make time or who don’t have kids, and this community has been such a blessing to find other women in other countries feel the same way. Very validating.”
“My eyes are filled with tears. Thank you for being our voice. What you're doing still holds a lot of meaning for many men as well, I believe.”
“Let me tell you how precious this community is to me and how amazing and caring the two of you host this space and inspire all of us! Thanks tons!”
