I cringe everytime a woman says that she's not in a LTR because she's "focusing on herself and/or on her carreer" yet let themselfves run over by a train in the meantime

Neither gender should be reduced into the equivalent of a yoghurt pack, casually thrown away once there’s mould showing on the top.

Dunno about you guys, but I throw away yoghurt once it starts getting mouldy, and buy new yoghurt. Or stop buying yoghurt because it's a waste of money if I'm not going to get value out of it.

Eating mouldy yoghurt is bad for your health.

I agree that neither gender should be reduced to the equivalent of a yogurt pack. My kids frequently let them pass the expiration date, those are left for dad. Once in a while I find one over one month over the date and is still ok. I take the chance with yogurts, and you can too.

Hey, yogurts ONLY. Do not generalize.

‘Part of me does feel pressure, mainly because of the baby thing, and also because I have the sense that the older you get as a woman, the less desirable you become,’ she said.

I think you might be on to something, hun.

I myself have been single for the past four years – not counting brief flings that lasted a few weeks or months – and am perfectly happy with my current situation.

I was single for four years except for all those dudes I fucked.

Once again, a woman experiences life as a man and falls apart.

Bitching & moaning with no bf or husband, but she's a "sex & dating expert" Lmfao

It's so weird to me how often we see these chick-lit thinkpieces that assume dudes are indoctrinated by social influence the same way they are. I think a good portion of us were once blue pilled types that wouldn't have shot down a 30-33 Yo woman if we were around that age.... until we dated more. Experience taught us that the older they are, the more problematic, destructive, vice-ridden, and bitter they are.

I didn't see a few buzzfeed articles' on my friends insta post that told me to stop dating 30+ women. I worked with 30+ women. I talked with 30+ women. I got suckered into blind dates with 30+ women. You know what I learned from it?

I don't want to handcuff myself to one for the rest of my life with her gun to my head.

I will reserve my comments to just one quotation for now:

‘Half of marriages end in divorce, so it makes the most logical sense to take your time and marry later, if at all. Also, by 30? Yeah right. I’ve barely got myself sorted, how could I possibly be settling down that soon – 40 seems more sensible.’

As if divorce is something that "just happens" rather than something that is overwhelmingly because of women initiating them. And as for sorting themselves out, with what exactly? Pursuing a career they may not even like all while believing it makes them a better catch by that fact alone? Hooking up with a variety of men or "dating" men who are obviously not marriage material?

It is not as if a lack of taking your time is the reason why divorce happens for so many women, but rather that they spent the time they did have on things that not only not prepare them for marriage, but take actions that make their outcomes worse. With the mindset of many women, they end up at 30 at square 1 of trying to find a husband when they could have made good use of their time in their 20's to have found a man to be married to already.

Another irony is that the woman complaining about needing to "sort herself out" is that most likely, the reason she was not sorted out in the first place was because she did actions that caused her to be not "sorted out" or supports the very causes that made her not be sorted out upon becoming an adult (e.g. No Fault divorces removing fatherly influences, welfare policies that create incentives for women not to care about picking a good father figure for their children).

Isn't it contradictory to say you shouldn't settle but then claim we shouldn't throw people away because they're not perfect?

This writer is just looking for emotional comfort instead of dealing with the reality. She's been single for four years (not counting her time on the carousel she calls 'flings') and was questioned by a guy who she was on a date with.

She also couldn't put two and two together: those divorced people are in their mid 40s. They're married in their 30s. Entering your 30s single is asking for trouble. The men at that age want younger women. The women are desperate and want to have kids. But why marry someone who only wants kids because time is running out rather than choosing to have them?

If kids and a husband were so important, why leave it to the last? Women are quick to shit on men for not having their priorities straight, but they're making justifications for having zero foresight. It's not a secret your fertility drops the older you get. It's not a secret you're most desirable at 18-21. But somehow they've convinced themselves that they're as desirable at 35 as they were a decade and a half ago.

These women are stupid. Sex and relationships cannot simultaneously be so important you feel you need to write about it and unimportant that it apparently doesn't matter when you get hitched.

In a woman's world, when reality doesn't feel nice, just shift the blame to society and be done with it. If a guy did this, he'd be called a whiny bitch.

"Because once the clock strikes 12 on my final 20-something birthday, I’ll join the ranks of women who are constantly facing the prejudice that once we’re 30, we’re no longer desirable on the dating market."

Yes. This is correct. You are now invisible to the men you want because they can still fuck younger women. The men who are interested in you aren't good enough for you. Welcome to reality.

Most women I know are DIVORCED by 30. They bring a kid with them from the marriage AND a year later they get knocked up by some random because they are out with the girls celebrating their “freedom” every week.

Aww I read some of the posts, they are cute. Now them seem to want too see the best in BOTH sexes.......that is after they have shamed men for 60+ years, telling us they need us like a fish needs a bicycle, then they did the metoo which was like throwing gasoline on an already fucking massive fire, they also have said they can do whatever a man can do, so let them. Let them have the show boys, fuck it all. Its collapsing all around us, this is exactly what they have wanted

Oh no!!! I'm turning 30 and I'm so scared of cats.... I don't want a cat!!!

This article is a woman victimizing other women. Any of her readers who believe this crap, and some of them will, may well have their lives ruined over it.

But its got nothing to do with me. They dont want our help, they can handle this on their own
