Do you feel like being childfree is part of your identity?

Self-Awareness check:

I was recently having a conversation about politics with some political people and religion with some religious people. I found the people to be blinded by dogma to lead them to nonsensical conclusions because their beliefs were tied to their identity.

I started to wonder if because childfree people are constantly faced with people with kids barking at them, if we have developed a defense mechanism and have caused us to have being childfree as an identity where we are blinded in the discussions people have about kids. Now, it doesn’t help that we are mostly having conversations with people who are blinded by their dogma of you must have kids. But, focusing on ourselves do you feel like there’s room for improvement on our side? Definitely not to have kids though. Lol.
