Abstract
The article deals with the rejectionist and anti-natalist frames of mind in philosophy of Otokar Březina and Anna Pammrová. Březina's rejectionist features can be situated in the late 80's and the early 90's, they are related to his distaste for love, sexuality and with his pessimistic view on of existence.
However, later they are overcome without developing into anti-natalism. The texts of Pammrová on the contrary, express not only rejectionist but also anti-natalist features.
Her antinatalism is feministic; in her texts, it is not systematic and results from fact that women are made to procreate and thus, made to multiply bodies instead of spirit.
