This is an unpopular opinion but I believe the fierce, I-can-do-it-myself-I don’t-need-anyone version of feminism is harmful to women. And the weak-feeble- women are loved, so I am not-I’m castrated so I’ll just play video games- message being sent to males is harmful to young men. And that’s everything that’s wrong with our society.

Joke is on you. It is optional and we are living through a baby bust so other people think the same.
Nah, we raised our kids right and are highly likely to get a pile of grandkids. The baby bust people we know are sad, feminist heathens.
The joke is on you. But keep believing we are unhappy. Tee hee
NP—and I’m honestly hopeful that this is true and will mean that this brand of feminism will die out with this generation of super duper happy childless-by-choice self-indulgent me-first women.
That will actually be a very good thing for society at large.

Do you realize that some single women who want to get married and have kids cannot meet a partner?
I am married now, but my experience as a single professional woman in DC was horrific. Men expected sex after two or three dates and would not even commit to a dinner reservation, much less marriage. I consider myself very lucky to have met a wonderful man. Many of my friends have tried everything but cannot meet a man who will commit. The men they meet are either serial daters, social outcasts, or lazy dick scratching layabouts. If we want to criticize any women, let's criticize the ones who raised such losers.
The three-date rule has been around for 50 years.

How exactly are you going to enforce this?
You don't "enforce" this, but you sure as heck raise your children to understand that the purpose of marriage is for a woman and man to raise children within the family unit. Also, when they start forming families, you support them financially with your savings from a lifetime of work. Any children who pursue a more selfish life are not assisted.
In short, if you want more of something, you subsidize it.
What if your kids couldn't have kids? Would you still punish them? And if you highly favored your children who had children please don't expect a loving relationship with your childfree children. Personally, I would work hard so I would not need your blood money AND I wouldn't see you ever again.
If a child did the right thing and got married young, you support him or her if there is an infertility struggle. That's bad luck and not the result of bad choices. If a daughter waits until she's 39 because she's pursuing her career (lol), then she's wasted her youth and a terrible disappointment. There is nothing better in this world than raising children and grandchildren. If a child is too selfish to continue the tradition of her ancestors, she dishonors her family and deserves scorn.
You would be welcome to go off into the ether to take care of yourself and let your bloodline die with you. I can't imagine a more shallow and selfish existence, and I'd wonder where I failed as a parent to raise such a person. A life serving others, especially your children and grandchildren, is far more rewarding than serving yourself.
If you truly feel that a life "serving" your children is better than "serving yourself," then you would actually support your children even if they don't want to make grandchildren that you desire. And you would definitely not write things like, "wow my daughter is an idiot for achieving a career to support her family before making one."
