I know many men that do want children to carry on their name and genes. I think most men and women are not prepared for the amount of work that is really required though. I also think that culturally and socially we are really at a huge disadvantage.
Ever see the documentary "babies"? I watched it years ago, and remember noting how happy everyone was in the tribal society in which the kids all played together and were raised by the whole family unit.
In my situation, you are absolutely correct. the reason why husband suggested we go to counseling was because he felt after comment I made, that all I cared about was conceiving. (Funny thing is I made comment because I felt like he was putting work ahead of intimacy)
