I do not take any pills or SSRIs and I do not appreciate the implication that I am on narcotics. Please be better.

I am actually fascinated by granny.
I wish she would do an AMA.
We are absolutely in a bubble here and I want to know more about this woman.

I’m a lurker who agrees with pretty much everything she said.

Just when intelligent secular folks were having an impact on policy and society. I bet all the religionists, who are cranking out kids like hotcakes, in super poor places, are just going to usher in another Middle Ages full of ignorance in like 30 years. Ugh. Wack.

"We need to have kids to outbreed the people we don't like" isn't an idea with a great history.

How old are you? How many kids?

Wages don't grow. Housing is completely unaffordable. Childcare costs are insane. Healthcare is ludicrous. Even if you had kids, stupid minivan to haul them around to soccer practice now costs $40k. And don't even talk about college costs....

You want to die in poverty? Have a kid.

Younger generations didn't create these problems. They're the ones that have to live with them though. The only solution is to not have kids just so that you can keep your financial head above water.


It's not money, it's decades of Hollywood and feminist propaganda. It's "cool" and "sophisticated" and "worldly" to piss away your prime fertility years living in the big city and traveling and waiting two hours to be seated for a hip brunch and rising the ladder at your make-work career, so you can piss more money away on shoes, travel, and instagram-worthy furniture. #GirlBoss #LeanIn


Oooooo the anti-brunch guy is back!!! I missed you and your rants against women going to brunch!!!


Is it really a dude? Gross.

I assumed it was a cranky old religious hag.


I'm not a "dude" or a "hag". I'm in my mid 40s, married, mother of three, one grandchild, a meaningful career, and all of my children attended top 25 universities. Play coy that being a wine or martini drunk, and wasting weekends away shopping and brunching weren't a "thing" for women over the last two decades. It's basically the premise of SATC. Waste your 20s and 30s and you'll land a Mr Big. Fertility? Don't worry about it! Have hedonistic fun! Millions of women who should have been married and having babies were wasting their lives on nothing. Pointless consumerism, and now, nothing to show for it. No heirs, no legacy, nobody will remember them. Genetic dead ends. Never mind end of life, imagine being stricken with an illness in your 30s 40s 50s and no husband or children to help. Or a husband who is exponentially more likely to leave you because he has no children with you. Never experiencing the joys of grandchildren. It's terribly sad how many women were conned.




Agree with PP. so many older single females nowadays. They thought they would be able to gallivant all over as they got older like SATC. Sorry that’s fake news. No one wants to hook up with 50 year old ladies trying to act 20.


They’re so clueless, they think it’s some kind of mic drop moment, not realizing that intelligent people don’t give a crap about it. You’re not the Queen of England and your family gene pool is irrelevant, Granny.

Darling, we’re laughing at her.

P.S. The “tee-hee struck a nerve” line is ridiculous and tired. You should probably retire it.

Imagine being smug about waiting until your 30s to have your first child. High probability you and/or your husband die before you experience the joy of grandchildren.


I absolutely do not care whether I live long enough to meet my grandchildren. My mother married young, had me young but still died when her first grandchild was 14 months old because the time she grew up in encouraged smoking. Your life is about more than your children and grandchildren, I hope.


Darling, you have exposed yourself. I 100% guarantee you do not have children. There is no greater joy than children and a close second is the great joy in seeing another generation come into this world.


Darling, get it through your thick skull that that is true for YOU. You have no — I repeat, no — idea what is anyone else’s “greatest joy.”

It’s an ironic reference to how you’re disconnected from reality.

I think watching the Duggar reality shows will give some insight into belligerent granny’s world.

I was married at 30
And didn’t really start trying for kids till 34
I absolutely had problems and had to do IVF
Had my only child at 37.
You are definitely rolling the dice the later you wait.
But I can’t imagine wanting 3-4 kids.
I was really on the fence about having more than one and
ultimately decided to stop after 1.
I don’t expect my child to procreate for my sake.
I haven’t given much thought to grandchildren.
But I would have more energy if I was 10 years younger.
Brunch granny isn’t totally wrong.
Just mostly wrong.

I’m a single mother by choice in my 30s. Wonder if Brunch Granny thinks I’m more or less horrifying than the child free folks in their 40s?

Are you part of the elite 5-10% of girlboss women?

The issue isn’t people like you.

The issue is society thinking all women can be like top 5-10% girlboss women.
