DINK

From Postmodern Dictionary
Jump to navigation Jump to search

An abbreviation for "double income, no kids". This term describes a married couple with no interest in having kids, at least for a time. This could be due to their interest in paying of debts or building a significant savings account before they plunge into parenthood.

This term is distinct from "dink", which can be found in standard dictionaries.
