What's wrong with having kids, though? I don't think having children is antifeminist.

It is true we never learn of Lily's profession, but we don't really learn what James did either, although I believe in a chat JKR actually implied they never really worked - they were very much soldiers.

Yes, the Potter women chose to have kids. Except McGonagall, who is actually pretty damn strong - elderly, but strong. And the women who DID have kids didn't let it stop their careers - Tonks kept fighting, and Hermione still worked at the Ministry when she could've been a stay at home Mom.
