Purpose of "Children" tab?

When I was filling out my profile, I left the "Children" tab blank, because it seemed kind of weird to me. Particularly if you consider the choices. Wants children? Doesn't want children? Maybe in the future? Unless my understanding of biology is rather mistaken, that doesn't have a lot to do with platonic cuddling.

It also makes me uncomfortable because I do have a child, and this site has nothing to do with him. I'm not going to meet a cuddle buddy with him in tow unless it were someone I knew pretty well who would by that point already know about him.

So my question is this: what is the purpose of telling potential cuddle buddies about your kids or lack thereof? Am I denying members of this community information they need to be comfortable with me?

    Thats something I thouhht too, actually. Dont feel its really important. :o if that subject comes up, cool! But otherwise I dont really see a point of it :P

    Nice potential topic for conversation, but I agree: "children" have nothing to do with cuddling, and it's kind of creepy being on profiles. It's not like we're all jonesing for time with Angelina Jolie and her six kids (no judgement if you are...).

    My only concern about children is that they are cared for elsewhere during a cuddle session. That should be a given, but some people have other ideas. If I showed up to cuddle and my partnerskids were ther, I'd turn around and go home. I guess if the profile said that you have children, I would ask, where will the kids be when we meet to cuddle.?

    Personally for me if I see someone says they have kids it lets me know I have something in common with them. And some people are very happy to share personal info about themselves so for them, it may be nice to have that as an option. I suppose if you don't wish to share it you don't have to.

    JT1980. Let's see ..... you left " children" blank. You don't want viewers to know you have a child ( at least not at first), it makes you feel not comfortable, yet you post on the forum you are a parent.

    Don't worry , no one here will tell anyone .

    I guess , When I see " has children" I have to reread the profile , and read - marital status-, job, host -guest-, preferred times , and put it all together, so , ...... female , kids, married , preferred time afternoon,host.
    Ok , she cuddles during the day , while he is at work and kids at school . Ok fine .
    If it said preferred time evening , I have to think either he takes the kids to the zoo while mommy cuddles someone , or they stay home and watch tv , and the next day the kids go to school and tell everyone mommy goes to bed with a stranger sometimes .

    I know there are some women on here who won't cuddle with a married man or a man in a relationship.

    I'm guessing there are people who wouldn't cuddle with someone if they had kids.

    Everyone has their personal preference. Age, race, body type, etc. Relationship status and kids don't matter to me but apparently to others.

    I left the kids option blank because "Does not have children" strangely isn't a choice.
