Christen Reighter : I don't want children-stop telling me l’ll change my mind

TED 2016
Christen Reighter : I don't want children-stop telling me l’ll change my mind  (transcript)
Summary
I think that I can’t say its title aloud, because people think that women should give birth in Japan.
Nowadays, according to the article, one in five women in the United State seems not to have a choice that they have a child.
When the speaker was a child, she noticed that she never wanted children but she was continually asked when she got married and when she was going to have a baby.
And then, she had removed a single path to parenthood surgically. Doctors didn't agree with it and they showed disapproval though her decision was strong.
Women have the amazing ability to create babies though the world should not decide that it’s the woman’s value.
I think that this problem is like acknowledging transgender surgery.
We have to create a world where we can understand each other without surgery.
