I think its great that people want kids, and i am confused why anyone would use such a derogatory term... to be honest, this is the first time I've ever heard that term...

I'm married, don't have kids, and never will have kids (despite literally
everyone I knew telling me "YOU'LL CHANGE YOUR MIND" ten years ago in a very condescending manner). I can 100% backup what PsYcNeT is saying.
Most childfree couples are perfectly decent people who just go about their lives in a non-judgmental manner, but there is also a very sizable number of kid-haters who hang out at /r/childfree and constantly refer to children as "womb goblins" or "crotchfruit" or other ridiculously insulting terms. They are to the childfree what euphoric fedora-wearing neckbeard atheists are to other non-believers: a source of embarrassment for the rest of us.
