[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What the hell do you expect?

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.  [/quote]

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 [b]waiting two hours to be seated for a hip brunch[/b] 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[/quote]

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

Is it really a dude? Gross.

I assumed it was a cranky old religious hag.

[b]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.[/b][/quote]

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.  [/quote]
