Why does a female who doesn't want kids make people so angry?

Because people think its defying woman's assigned role in patriarchal society?
If you think that's outrageous, you should watch or read stories about Drupadi, the wife of five Pandawas, she's one of the few high profile polyandrous females in history. Its already controversial enough in the original Indian version of Mahabharata so no wonder when the story adapted to Indonesian (Javanese) version, its been edited by the Muslim clerics thus Drupadi only have one husband (Yudhistira) in this version.
I just happen to finally watch the Dian Sastro's Drupadi (2008) on last Sunday, and here's my review and thoughts about the movie: http://alkupra.wordpress.com/2014/10/06/film-strip-drupadi-sebuah-penantian-yang-terjawab/
Why does a female who doesnt want kids make people so angry

I thought u r gay, why not go for sex change?

Look, I just gonna answer it in Bahasa Indonesia because I can sense that your English is not that good, okay?
Menjadi homoseksual bukan berarti seseorang ingin menjadi lawan jenis, Well, mungkin memang ada sebagian orang yang merasa terlahir di tubuh yang salah dan mungkin berharap ingin mengubah jenis kelamin mereka, mereka yang disebut sebagai transgender. Tapi yang perlu diingat, tidak semua pria gay ingin menjadi perempuan walaupun mungkin ada beberapa di antara mereka yang terlihat agak feminin dan mengambil peran sebagai yang lebih pasif dalam hubungan. Gay gak berarti kecewek-cewekan, banyak yang secara penampilan dan pembawaan pun sewajarnya laki-laki heteroseksual. Yang membedakan cuma preferensi seksual aja. Dan gak semua cowok yang terlihat feminin itu udah pasti gay juga. Bicara tentang gender gak segampang memandang sesuatu secara hitam-putih.

Have you ever feel like you have a crush on someone but you just try to shut it off before the feeling got bigger because you know that you have no chance with him/her? During that situation what will you do? Thank you :)

That's actually what I'm doing all this time... and the reason why I'm stay single like forever.
There's part of me that hold me back to actually have serious relationship, Iike I don't know maybe its from subconsciously guarding myself after seeing so many divorces in my close family, I feel like I don't need anybody to feel happy and its not a great idea to invest emotional feeling with someone who claim to love you right now and eventually will hurt you the most in the future. I'm being coward for the emotional scars and I'm completely try to trick myself that I don't need anybody on romantic level to make me happy. But of course I was wrong, I feel so unhappy and getting bitter all the time, there's something missing in my life that I could not fulfill with successful career, material things, and close relationship like family and friends, because deep down inside I know I'm craving for genuine intimacy with someone. I try to move away from that dismissive-avoidant tendency, for now... I try to open my heart for someone and let's see how it goes.

Flora of the day #2

This time I'll choose Lily of the valley (Convallaria majalis). I really don't know the Indonesian name for this flower, but some of you might recognize its Japanese name, which is Suzuran, especially if you ever read Chie Watari's "Misteri Bunga Suzuran" manga.
Lily of the valley has sweet scent and bell-shaped white (sometimes pink-ish) flowers which giving an innocent appearance while in fact this pretty flora are deadly poisonous. All parts of it, from flower, leaves, roots, and the red berries are highly poisonous that can cause vomits, reduced heart rate, and abdominal pain. But at the same time, the moderate amount of the extract are used as anti-toxin itself and a cure for epilepsy.
Its also have different names, like Our Lady's tears or Mary's tears which refer to Christian legend which says the flowers blooming from the Virgin Mary's tears during the crucifixion of Jesus while other legend says its originated from Eve's tears after she was driven with Adam from the Garden of Eden or from the blood shed by Saint Leonard of Noblac during his battles with a dragon. Beside the Biblical legend, Ancient Greek believe the flower originated from Hera's breast milk.
In the florography (the language of flowers), Lily of the valley symbolizes the return of happiness, sweetness, and devotion. That's why its also quite popular flower for weddings, even though the price itself can be very expensive. Kate Middleton and Grace Kelly choose this flower for their bridal bouquet.
I like this flower, mostly because "Misteri Bunga Suzuran" manga which tell as story about young psychotic girl called "Suzuran" who infiltrate the main protagonist life just because she's jealous of her perfect life. At first, Suzuran looks very sweet and kind but after awhile she show her true face and make the protagonist's life (I forgot her name) a living hell, by taking over her friends, boyfriend, and even parents. Suzuran shows her true color as poisonous and invasive girl, just like the namesake plant itself.
