I Don’t Want to be a Career Woman

I(24f) know a lot of people will assume that when a woman doesn’t want to have children it’s because they want to “focus on their career” and be a “careerwoman” but I really don’t feel that desire at all.

I’m a software engineer - I like my job, it’s fine. But I don’t want it to be my main focus in life. What I really want to focus on and care about is playing video games, traveling (some day, when I have saved enough) and I want to look after several dogs (when I have enough money to give some puppies a good life).

My job is a vessel to make me money lol. And it’s not like I’m going to be intentionally bad at it, I do enjoy my work. I want to devote like a good 40% of my daily focus and mental effort into it - and then the rest just on doing things that I like to do.

If I didn’t have a job and got a salary every month I still wouldn’t want kids - I don’t need children or a career to keep me fulfilled I feel like, lol

It’s not very feminist of me. I don’t want to be uber successful, I just want to be comfortable and happy.
