You can be a nurse with a 2-year RN degree. It's full-time; it's intense. It includes summers and an entire year of clinical. No need for BSN. Get the degree in 2 years and start earning decent money by the time you are 20!

More than half (50.1%) of women in England and Wales born in 1990 were without a child when they turned 30 in 2020, the first generation to do so, according to the Office for National Statistics (ONS).
That is almost three times higher than the lowest number of women ever to be child-free at 30 – 17.9% of those born in 1941.
At the same time the average number of children women have by the time they reach 30 has fallen to its lowest-ever level (0.96).

Hook-up culture and shack-up female careerists are eliminating themselves from the gene pool. While women who prioritize monogamy, building a family, and having children in their 20s will have heritable traits that also incline their children to also prioritize families over consumerism, traveling, shopping, juggling boyfriends in your 20s. And the girl bosses will never admit they're wrong because misery loves company.

I’m glad these women exist to be brood mares and breed a generation of maids and service workers for my kids.

Old eggs don't typically produce healthy strong children. You can see this same phenom in mothers with lots of children, who started in their 20s and continued in their 30s. Often the last one or two children are smaller, less intelligent, and/or have some health issue(s).

That’s great. We need able bodied, strong people to be our future underclass.

This isn’t always the woman’s choice though. Many women wanted real relationships but could only find men interested in sex. And then you’re damned if you do, damned if you don’t. If you put out, then you end up being “a shack-up female careerist.” If you don’t, if you tell every guy you are waiting for marriage/engagement/commitment, then you end up being a 30 year old virgin or very inexperienced and men lose patience with you or think it’s weird.

This. I would have LOVED to have a family early, but the guys my age just didn’t have their sh!t together. Out partying/drinking, working dead end jobs, trying to pick up other women, get high and play video games all day, live with 4 other guys and have gross posters of naked women everywhere, they ghost you after you sleep with them or they ghost you if you don’t sleep with them. And I sure as hell wasn’t going to marry a man 15 years older than me; while they may be more mature, I also didn’t want to spend my retirement taking care of a much older man.

The issue is that men nowadays just aren’t worth much. They aren’t getting into college, they aren’t getting good jobs, they think with their d!cks, they have no impulse control or ability to plan for the future. Women are surpassing them and no woman wants to marry a loser. Males need to step it up.

^^ Nailed it. Men are spending too much time on video games & phones, are undereducated and living an extended adolescence. They're part of the problem.

Didn't gen X nana say her oldest daughter was an RN or a teacher? Hardly an insignificant career, with both requiring a master's degree and offering great pay vis a vis work-life balance, plus great health care and fringe benefits. You jaded spinsters – and don't deny that you're not, you're fooling no one – are twisting everything to paint her as low class white trash, with a barefoot and pregnant SAHM 20-something daughter and some budding MD son in law who of course cheats on her with classmates and will divorce her to marry some surgeon or lawyer. Your cynicism suggests you're deeply unhappy.

You don’t even know that RNs don’t have Master’s degrees. Stick your pathetic “spinster” lies in your ear.

?? My 2 neighbors are nurses and their business cards say RN, BSN, MSN

My sister's bestie is an RN and has two masters degrees.

My yoga teacher is RN, MSN, Ph.D

I am a teacher with a BA, MA, and M.ED.

Many professionals that used to only have introductory/undergraduate degrees have multiple advanced degrees.

Sigh. Once again, you do not need a Master’s to be a nurse. You are a nurse with a BSN.

What’s with the insistence that single women will never settle down? If they want to, they most likely will.

They’re jealous (but will never admit it), so they need everyone else to do what they did to validate their choices.

Got married at 24, but didn't have 1st kid until 32. Got to enjoy travel, frittatas, career building, and my "empty existence" until spouse and I felt ready to be parents. I do have to say that part of the reason I didn't have children younger is that it looked really hard. The 30 something mothers I worked with always seemed so tired and grumpy. And then I became a tired and grumpy woman after I had my kids, because working a demanding career and raising kids is flipping exhausting.

I do feel like 2-career households have increased the quality of life for men more so than women. Men today maybe do 20% more household work and parenting than their fathers, but women still do the lion's share of household/parenting while bringing in half of the family income. I would venture to say that men's lives have gotten EASIER with a full-time career spouse because of the increase in household income and reduction in the stress of being the sole breadwinner. I'm not sure that I can say that full-time working moms have it easier than those who SAH (at least after the baby/pre-school years).

When a breakup happens in your late 20s or early 30s, it's quite common for the woman to tell the man something along the lines of "I regret wasting my best years with you." What does she mean by that? She means the peak of her fertility and beauty, which coincide. You're at your prettiest to attract a mate. The man caused her to not only waste much of her fertility window, she is now less attractive, too, which means it will be more difficult to attract a mate. That is the cusp of the frustration, a yearning desire to attract a male and to procreate.
