"I am a 29-year-old man and I’ve been married for two years. When I started dating my wife I told her that I never want to be a parent and she understood. She has recently brought up the conversation of having kids and I told her that my position is still the same and I don’t want any. Being a parent is not something I want for myself."

"Now here is the problem - My brother and his wife have been struggling to conceive and they have asked me to donate and help them conceive because they want their child to be part of our family by blood. I am the only one who can do it and I don’t have a problem but my wife thinks I am a douche for agreeing to help my brother and his wife but refusing to have kids of my own." - Anonymous in Durban.

Is anonymous a douche for agreeing to donate and help his brother start a family, despite refusing to have kids with his own wife?
