[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wonder how people today would have handled being conscripted and sent off to Vietnam or the Normandy Invasion. Or dealt with the famine and disease that was a mainstay of human existence up until 150 years ago. Or the far higher likelihood of death during childbirth. I don’t begrudge people for getting help, but it really does seem like so many women are in a perpetual state of being aggreived and broken and wounded.

Violent crime is way down from the 1990s. Unemployment is low. We are not being drafted to fight in wars (not that most DCUMers would have to worry about a draft). We have amazing technology. [b]And yet women are more miserable and resentful than ever.[/b][/quote]

Because they’re trapping themselves in 1930s morality - everyone MUST be married by 25 and if you’re 33 and don’t have 2.5 kids you’re a failure as a woman while also trying to live within an idyllic 1950s bubble of perfect housewife with the white picket fence - knowing all the while inflation and COL vs wages haven’t been this bad since the 80s.

They’d be less stressed if they got their heads out of their asses. [/quote]
