For unmarried people - by what age would you like to be married?

[MASHED POTATOES. VOTE!]

None

The idea of thinking about having children in your twenties (I don't know what age you are but I'm assuming it's under 23) is literally incomprehensible to me but whatever floats your particular boat.

QFT.

I'm 23. I don't think about such things (not clinically insane).

e: I voted 30-40 because the younger options seem disturbing to me in 2014 and if that dark day should ever come that seems like a reasonable age range. Someone voted 23? What.

Yep it's me.
I would like to have kids relatively early!

Re: above - surely celibate priests defeat half the purpose of being a liberal christian?

But why? Having children is probably the best thing that can happen to someone. And if you have children early, you will have grandchildren early as well. And having grandchildren is probably awesome as well.

(and I'm 19)

I get your point, but most people in their 20s are just not mature or experienced enough to undertake such a responsible task.

Kal,
I have a question for you.
Do you want to have a kid in your 30's, or you don't want to have kids at all???
And could you explain your answer as well please?
This is really interesting to have other opinions on that!

Honesty speaking, dude, I don't think making such plans makes much sense. In short: I don't know.

Actually, being a celibate doesn't preclude entering into a marriage.

Anyway, I don't believe creating your road map, like "I'll get married at 25, have first kid at 26..." makes much sense. Life just doesn't work this way.
