I haven't read past the first page of this thread yet, but I suspect the poor OP has gotten flamed already. Oh well, I completely agree with the OP (and I actually think the OP is the author of a site I've read a few times, because the language is VERY similar). And I'm in my 40s, been married for 23 years, am a liberal and a feminist. [/quote]

This is just close-minded, traditional bullshit.......and you NEED to read all the pages despite what you think. You could be married 100 years and a Western radical feminist for all I care (hope you got the memo on Feminism).

[b]The world today is much different especially for millennials, and you can't use traditional standards to legislate what ppl should and should not do today![/b]

BULL SHIT! [/quote]

You don't speak for millennials either. My friends and I are millennials and I know a majority of us hope to end up with life partners and children. You sound bitter and angry[/quote]

I am not sure why you are disagreeing with me, but there....I have highlighted what I am referring to and what the PP quoted, just to make things clearer for you (see the very top post).

Almost EVERYONE want to end up with "...life partners and children..." but the HOW and WHEN will ALWAYS be different for millenials than others before. Too much data out there to corroborate that millenials will take longer to gain financial stability in order to settle down to the same degree their parents did. It doesn't mean millenial women should now pressure men into doing so when we are living in much different times where rents, mortgages, and childcare are no less than 60%-80% of average HHI.

I may sound bitter and angry to you, but the operative word here is SOUND and fortunately, after two graduate degrees later, I don't speculate. I rely on data, not BULL SHIT anecdotal opinions!
