Because it is. The average first marriage age for an American male is 29 and for an American female it's 27.]
I barely know any married younger millennials or older Gen Zers in their early-mid 20s, but I’m an older Millennial born in the mid-80s and like, 23-26 was prime wedding time for me and my friends. Multiple weddings every summer and fall, people showing up at work with engagement rings all the time.
Where are you from, and where were you living from 23-26? I'm roughly the same age and this was not at all my experience. I was 26 when my first friend got married (and she's a couple years older than me), and prime wedding time for my friends was 29-33. I feel like that is much more the norm of our peers, but it may be a urban/rural or regional divide thing.
Exactly. 23 is too young to get married in the 21st Century.
For people with generational wealth, sure. But Posh and Beckham didn’t come from much and have worked a lot. Just seems odd to have a loaf for a kid.Anonymous wrote:Anonymous wrote:Which is odd because by all accounts, both parents have been work horses.Anonymous wrote:Anonymous wrote:Pro athletes in both families, maybe the kids will be similar!
Maybe. Brooklyn never had the talent or work ethic for soccer. Or anything else really.
Why work hard if you are already given everything? That’s why very rich kids are often drug users or just lazy and unaccomplished. They don’t have the “hunger” to achieve anything.

Because this forum is full of in denial aging yuppies who pretend it's normal to get married for the first time at 35 and that women can have their first child "easily" well into their mid and late 30s.
Ivf harpies seethe at young weddings. And will seethe again when she pops out babies and quickly returns to form.

NP. Has been for a long time. Most of my high school class mates and family friends married and/or had a kid by 24.
Me too. But there have been a number of divorces. It is just too young and people change. Other than societal pressure, I never understood why people wanted to be locked down in their early 20’s. That is the only time in life when you can enjoy certain experiences. Plenty of time to be an old married couple.
