Not zero: It is effort to argue with people that try to convince you to have children. And if they're e.g. family it's not always possible to avoid them.

"Desperate to not drink socially"

"Desperate to not volunteer for military service"

"Desperate to not eat meat"

These are all things that to varying degrees (and varying by locale) run contrary to social expectations and will be met with external pressure. I still don't see anyone writing up the grandiose titles above with a straight face.
