At least in my own experience - this describes everyone I know in a healthy stable marriage with a reasonably equal partner. Even if they waited to marry/have kids, they were together fairly young.

How many men now want to get married by the time they are 30 and pop out a couple of kids to support? Very few.

I wasn't able to have kids; I let my college boyfriend string me along until I was 28. By the time I found my dh, it was apparently too late for me to have kids at 35.

A lot of women do want to get married in their early or mid twenties, but very few men do.

You're the one going psycho and name-calling women who choose to wait until their 30s to have kids. Almost like you're subconsciously getting off on trying to ruin women because you're so broken about your own choices.

Sweetie, you do realize a large percentage of the 50% of women who wait until 30 plus WILL NEVER HAVE BIOLOGICAL CHILDREN, yes?

They think they are going to get a Mr Big at age 45 and have kids right after. Lol.

What's sad is how the spinsters and those with an IVF baby or two continue to traffic the lie that it was worth it and any woman who married and gave birth in their early or mid 20s is some low class and trashy bore. Look how the handful is attacking me. I'm a Bible thumping rubem when actually I have an advanced degree, a fulfilling professional career, and our children got into highly selective colleges. It's almost as if they subconsciously get off on trying to ruin the next generation because they're so broken inside about being conned into squandering their prime. Misery loves company, right. 10 to 15 years of never seeing their grandchildren grow up deleted from life's ledger, if they are fortunate enough to even have children and grandchildren. I feel sorry for them but not when they attack me and carry on the lie that it was worth it.

Cultural phenomenon. Be selfish, be immature, be a drunk not just in college but for another 10 years after college, obsess over your cat or dog and pointless job instead of locking down an eligible suitor in your physical and fertility prime. Anyone who marries and has kids right after college is an unsophisticated toothless rube!

Why is it so hard to imagine that having as many children as possible as young as possible is no longer a goal for modern women and men? While you may enjoy nothing better than pumping out babies and watching your babies pump out babies, other people make other choices.

Honestly, you sound envious. I'm not sure what else explains your vitriol about other peoples' lives that have literally no impact on you.

Envious of what? Children didn't disrupt my life, they ADDED to it, making it exponentially more meaningful and more fulfilling than words could ever describe. I still have an advanced degree, a professional career, a lovely home, we travel, we have a great life. What did I miss? 10 years of hooking up with random men, mental baggage, maybe an STD, developing some man-eater cynicism, maybe an abortion, maybe I'd make an extra $50k a year than I do now? And even if we couldn't travel or afford to eat at great restaurants, since when are meals or some week stay at a Four Seasons more valuable than raising children and having enough decades left (God willing) to see grandchildren grow up?

I had a friend who told me that, back when we were in our 20s and he was getting married, and I was getting ready to move overseas on an adventure. 15 years later he was in the middle of the most bitter divorce I'd ever encountered, and I was marrying the guy I am glad I waited for.

Don't have kids and never wanted them, so that was never part of my calculus. I guess I am jsut a husk of a person, really, when you think about it.
