I’m thinking of becoming an SMC because I’m asexual and some kind of grey-romantic-ish. But I’d be the minority among SMCs – most SMCs are heterosexual women, in their 30s or 40s, who haven’t had good luck with romantic relationships and have decided having a child is a bigger priority. Many of these women openly acknowledge that they might never meet ‘Mr Right’, and seem to have accepted that. But they couldn’t accept never having a child, so they had kids on their own.
