Cameron Diaz has spoken out about her choice to not be a mother, saying many women are afraid to admit they don’t want to have children.
The 36-year-old Hollywood A-lister said despite the fact there were too many children in the world already, women who chose not to be mums were made to feel they were unnatural.
“I think women are afraid to say that they don’t want children because they’re going to get shunned,” Cameron told Cosmoplitan magazine.
“But I think that’s changing too now. I have more girlfriends who don’t have kids than those that do.
“And honestly? We don’t need any more kids. We have plenty of people on this planet.”

While she was advocating a woman’s right to choose, Cameron also said she wasn’t ruling out the possibility of one day becoming a mother.
“I never say never. I don’t know what’s going to happen,” she said.
“I could end up adopting half a dozen kids, or I could end up being the next ‘octomum’.”
