All races do this but it is more common in minority communities especially the black community.
Some of it is closed minded and ignorant thinking...but I do understand that it does seem odd if a seemingly eligible hence the word ELIGIBLE man is single and childless...then they will wonder why haven't u been selected by some woman or at least one woman would've found u good enough to have ur child, They gonna wonder if u homosexual, DL, undesirable or wonder why nobody got u off the market. People think that folks should follow a similar timeline with their life endeavors like they did. But I'm a type of person who may look at things with a more reasonable and analytical mindset...like some folks don't have kids because they may not be ready financially, mentally or emotionally. Just cuz someone looks successful doesn't mean they are and they may have debt out the azz, horrible credit, no money in bank, mental issues, trust issues, time management issues, etc. whereas its too difficult to sustain a relationship let alone be able to provide for children. Plus people need to not worry so much about others and their approval and liking u....shyt especially if they not paying ur bills and providing food or roof over ur head.
