I agree the choices aren't ideal but I think "likes children", "dislikes children" and "doesn't want children" all match a search for "Doesn't have children" whereas leaving the question blank or answering that you have children means you won't show up in a search that specifies "Doesn't have children". It's a bit confusing and not a very logical setup but I think that's how it works.
I think you're probably right. That gives me a good reason to answer to it, but I'm still a bit uncomfortable with all the answers. "Don't want" is closest, though.
Particularly not ideal in as much as only 'likes' and 'dislikes' are mutually exclusive among those options. But I suggest that anyone who puts both 'has children' and 'dislikes children' on their profile is being far too honest for their own good. ;)
