Surely you aren't implying that ChildFREE is pro-choice and ChildLESS
is pro-life (or more to the point, ANTI-choice)?

As Queen would say, "NO-NO-NO-NO-NO-NO-NO!"
I mean exactly what I wrote. To be "childless" means you have no
children - regardless of whether or not you ever want any; anyone
without a child is childless. This differs from the term "childfree",
which connotates one who has no children and never wants any.
Neither term has anything to do with one's stance on the choice issue.
I merely stated that many (if not most) childfree people are
pro-choice.
Is that any more clear?
