Since I have no children and have never been married, my answer is coming from a different vantage than most people my age. For myself, of course, the answer is no kids, for personal reasons. Growing up, I sort of inferred that three, the number in my family, was the "right" number. I can't quite explain it, mostly I think it had to do with the nature of society at the time and socio-economic reasons. Over the years, through further observation, I learned that many people who had a fourth child regretted it, realizing or feeling that they should have stopped at three. Nowadays, again due to societal and economic reasons, I'm thinking two is a good number. Both of my sibs have two, and I've seen the advantages of stopping there and focusing all available parental time and resources on those two. Obviously, your question has as many answers as there are adults in the world.
How many times have you, as a man, after a certain age or number of years of frustration with this dumb old world, secretly wished you could have the kind of power, advantage and control vis-a-vis women that men in ancient times had? Come on, lads, be honest. ;-)
-
Unnumbered times.
How many times have you wished that Governments were unnecessary?
-
without getting into my social/political persuasion, isnt that roughly akin to asking how many times you wished for a sunny day, or for something to happen this way as opposed to that way? its not something to keep track of, but rather, to count as best as a "necessary evil"...
I don't drink it any more but I loved it when I was a kid---how many ounces of egg nog is "too many?"

How many peanust butter and jelly sandwiches can you eat in a sitting?
-
Depends on how much bread, jelly, and peanut butter I have!
How many books do you read per week?
-
boy that really varies depending on the thickness of the book. I read everyday but sometimes I could get through zero in a week, or 1-2. so im going to go with 0 minimum, 2 tops.
right now im dragging through looking backwards, and enjoying flyboys.
how many hours for a movie is just about right?
-
Somewhere around 2 hours.
How many George Clooney movies can you name?
-
hmm, one of the batman movies and those two oceans movies, 11 and 12 (havent seen either) is it? so sorta three.
i think im more interested in kate beckinsale and Jessica biel. laughs...
oh, and if im really hungry, and its really cheap soft white bread, i could easily do 4 pbj's, 5 if i pushed it and had stuff to drink too.

How many rolls of toilet paper do you have in storage?

9 rolls. I buy the giant economy packs.
How many books are you reading at the moment?
-
sometimes in two, sometimes just in one. I go back and forth. last night I finished flyboys, while im still drudging through looking backward, the novelty of which has long since worn out and im skipping sections like crazy.
so, was 2, now 1, and I probably wont start another until I finish looking backward, which by the way I don't recommend to anyone for pleasure reading. if you are interested in social/political philosophy, that's another story.
nfl playoffs are starting, how many games will you watch between now and inclusive of the superbowl?
-
None.
How many sports do you follow?
-
Zip. Zilch. Also known as none. Spectator sports and me are like distant relatives who, per force, see each other occasionally at family gatherings, but don't know each other from Adam and neither of us could be arsed to show up at the other one's funeral. Unless there's money in the will.
Chef Boyardee is famous, among other things, for its little meatballs, the ones found in the various spaghetti type products and ravioli variants. You love them and you know you do. In your lifetime, how many would you estimate you've eaten?
