Women are freezing their eggs because they cannot find similarly successful men

Anonymous
I'm fine with freezing eggs but the whole complaining about not being enough successful men is just as dumb as men complaining about there not begin any hot women. Supply and demand people. the good ones get married pretty quickly.....

So men are losers? Didn't need an article to tell me that...

I'm 33, is it too late for me to freeze my eggs?

This is interesting. Should women simply have children on their own and raise them themselves?


Um, why not just have kids with a man who is "less successful" professionally?

But the short answer is no. Kids raised by single moms do not do well at all.


Why would you want your children to have a father who is less successful?

Because success defined as professional achievement and money is only one facet of what makes a good partner.

No!!! Before 35 is recommended, but after that you can still do it. But better to do it now rather than later

Because there are only so many high paying jobs. Not that it's a bad thing, but men have to compete with twice the number of people they used to for high status jobs. Seems obvious to me why these women may have a hard time finding equally successful men.

This premise is wrong because more people in the workforce means more productivity, more development, and more jobs.

I don't know. I think people like to find excuses.

Full disclosure: childless/free woman here.

I think some women don't really want to have kids, but they want to continue to have the options. It's like Schrodinger's cat.

Keep believing that, but all you need to do is look at the workforce participation rate to know that it's a real issue. Only so many general counsel, CIO or CFO jobs to go around. How about this, if you want to date a true financial and career 'equal' then you cannot date any male counterpart that you ever beat out in an interview. Limits the dating pool a bit doesn't it?

Only because men are lagging behind. Look at college attendance rates. This isn't about a 50/50 split- this is about women outperforming men at such a level that it's shocking.

For every job you got there are twenty you didn't, so using that logic, there's plenty of winners and losers to go around.

College attendance rates do not directly translate to professional success.

so stupid most MBA, law, and medical programs are still majority male. The myth of there being this glut of women making over say 150k by say 30 vs males isn't true. However it may be true that there are more single women than single men in this category. Just as there are probably more single hot dudes than single hot women at this age as well.

Because "less successful professionally" does not mean he is not kind, intelligent, or a good father.
