What does it mean "no kids/children?"

[SJK977]

Just wondering what this means when listed in profiles. We couldn't find it in any of the glossary listings.

I would guess that they don't have kids and/or children ...

Or, they don't want to play with kids around ... believe it or not, we've heard stories of kids being around with adult fun going on. That gives me the TOTAL yuck factor!

I too would say they have no kids to work around.
People with kids have tighter scheduals and things pop up and plans change. I guess, if you have no kids it is a drawing factor because less issues with last minute cancelations.
As for the idea that they would not play with kids around. I would hope that would be a no brainer, but like havinfuninsun said some people don't use common sence.
I think havinfun, you made the understatement of the day. TOTAL YUCK FACTOR, to say the least.
Your friend,

I take it to mean they don't want to play with parents. I've read some profiles that are a lot more blatant. Something like "we don't have kids and aren't interested in people who do. We don't want to talk about little junior's activities!" As a parent of 3 and yet still VERY much a woman who can leave ALL the mom stuff and conversation behind to have adult fun with my husband and/or other adults, I resent statements like that. BUT at least I know that if someone is that narrow minded about the kind of fun they could have with us based on the fact that a separate part of our lives differs from theirs, I really am not interested in them anyway. Movin' right along.

We have in our profile that we are parents but get along with the "kidless" just as well. To show that we can find enough common ground in either crowd. To me, whether or not you are a parent has almost nothing to do with sexual compatibility.

I've seen this too and like havefuninsun said, i'm guessing it means that the couple has no children/child. As others has said too, it is called adult fun not adult fun plus children. I do not play with my children around and find it yukky or inconvient to have children around. We have been contacted by people wanting to play with their children at home and we just reply with a no thank you.

[spectraschain]

believe it or not, we've heard stories of kids being around with adult fun going on.

Depending on the age of your children, there's also the "adults being around with kid fun going on"...
Daddy finds this "yucky" as well....

[JustAskJulie]

How was it used in the profile? Was it just that stated on its own or was it within the context of something else?

[troubadour]

You can't rule out the possibility that they simply don't like to be around children or small goats.

[BradAndJanet]

Maybe they won't play "Spank Me Daddy" or something...

Lotta guesses here. I think you'd have to ask the profile authors to know for sure.

I think it depends on the context in which the statement was written. In my profile it states that I prefer to play with couples who do not have children at home. Not to say that I wouldn't play with them if they have children, however if they do, I would never want to meet the children and would not want to play while the children are in the home. It may sound selfish, however, I don't have any children and my expectations are to be with a couple who is as flexible with their schedule as I am with mine. With children at home, the parents have a lot to work around and a person like myself has to be understanding about cancelled play dates. Not that people without children never cancel but they normally have more options of when they can play, travel, etc. And lets face it, some kids are just brats and for someone who doesn't spend a lot of time around kids, that can be a real turn off.

Now, some people list children in their dislikes right along with potty games and anal. I think that means they don't want to wind up with some twisted pervert who may be into activities involving minors.

This is how we usually see it posted, in the dislikes. I can't see who would actually WANT this, which is the reason for the question to begin with. We had a suspicion that this is what it meant, but wanted other opinions in case we were reading too much into it. Thanks!

You might want to ask the person who wrote that, we can all just guess.

OR, they are talking about maturity level. I have met some people who act more childish then my own kids.
But I doubt that is it.
Or they don't want to have kids with you or anyother swinger.
It is hard to say, I have seen and heard some pretty strange things since getting into the lifestyle not much is going to shock me anymore....gross me out, ya but not shock.

We've seen it many times in many profiles, so we thought there was some "standard" meaning to it, that's all....rather than asking everyone what they mean by that.
