Chelsea Handler's Childfree Video Divides the Internet
Comedian Tackles Being Childless by Choice
Millions of Women Don't Want Children, Handler Says
Chelsea Handler has sparked a debate on social media with her recent video about enjoying life without children. The video, which she posted on Instagram, has been viewed over 2 million times and has received both praise and criticism.
In the video, Handler, who is 47 and has never had children, says that she "loves her life" and that she doesn't regret her decision not to become a mother. She also talks about the pressure that society puts on women to have children, even if they don't want them.
"I think it's really important for women to have the choice to do what they want with their bodies," Handler says in the video. "And if they don't want to have children, then they shouldn't have to feel like they're less than."
Handler's video has resonated with many women who have made the same choice not to have children. Some have praised her for speaking out about the issue, while others have criticized her for being "selfish" or "unnatural."
Despite the criticism, Handler's video has also started a conversation about the importance of choice. Many people have come to her defense, arguing that it's time to stop judging women who don't want children.
Handler herself has responded to the criticism with grace, saying that she understands that not everyone agrees with her views. However, she hopes that her video will help to break down the stigma surrounding childfree women.
"I think it's important to have a conversation about this," Handler says. "And I'm glad that my video has started a dialogue."
