Charles Schwab ova here

I can only speculate. My best guess would be that people have some innate fear of anything that endangers continuity, i.e. the continued existence of the tribe. People who go their own way are subsconsciously seen as a threat because they demonstrate that cliches about belonging and procreation are just that, cliches, concepts that bear little relation to reality.

I suspect that it has to do with two things:

- You not having kids

- Your ‘refusal’ to settle down and develop ties to a specific place

People who don’t procreate and who wander around rather than staying put solely identifying with one group identity are always going to be shamed. Wrongfully so, but still, it happens. It’s a sad fact of life
