ok
This episode looks so interesting, can't wait, thanks Chris!
Have you interviewed Louise Perry?
(Slap!) "No SIMPing.Move alnog,sir."
By my part i think all that stuff is just semi-organic.
Why push when one can direct, spend minimal effort, for maximum effect by guiding a desirable path, and silencing undesirable paths
And no one will be sure if you are doing something or not.
You hide in the motion while stopping counter motions.
That is how you influence the path of civilization.
Reminds me of a funny joke about Beyonce being up on stage singing "all the single ladies" then she goes home to her husband and leaves all the lonely girls dancing in a circle pretending to be happy
Hilarious
Agreed.
RIP Kevin Samuels.
A great man.
Single ladies want to be in relationships and married women wish they could experience the burdenlessness of singlehood again. The grass is always greener on the other side.
Perfectly put 👌
The next few years are going to be weird. Only certain groups have children. There will be a ton of older men who have no relationship experience, and a ton of older women who have too much sexual experience. This all undoubtedly will add to America’s already high depression problem.
Nah, cultures that don't reproduce did out and get replaced by those who do. It's only the white cultures that have these doubts. Others have 4-6 kids even if they can't feed them. In 30 years you'll have a bunch of old lonely white people and exploding societies of other ethnicities who dont give a f about them.
Which is stupid to me. If you can get a passport you should be in Philippines right now getting a wife. Or Thailand. The swedes are doing it, there's literally entire Thai towns in rural sweden now where all the blue collar Swedish men live lol
@@ibizawavey8630 yea, Thai women aren’t that attractive. I don’t want to travel across the world just to find a wife lmao. There’s nothing to gain from marrying someone, but you stand to lose everything, possibly.
@@ibizawavey8630 The idea is tempting but this is just passing the problem to the Philippino men. They are human too.
Nope. WWIII will happen first.
I'm a man who doesn't want children, so I don't have a problem if women are deciding that they don't want children as well.
Exactly. Women deciding to be single and child-free is the best option at times.
Smart. You are not the only man to feel this way and there are plenty of women for you out there
@Sae15w Ok and? I'm dead, so I can't use it anymore. Let the government have it.
@Sae15w There is this thing called estate planning where you direct where your assets are t go and for what purpose. A real legacy that can effect billions of people for generations. I know ZERO about Andrew Carnegie's descendant's but we all know about Carnegie Hall.
Exactly. If you wanna have kids have them, if you don't then don't. But why shit on people just cuz they want something different than you in life.
Some men and women just don't want to get married and/or have kids. It's not a crime. Some people don't want the responsibility and stress of being a parent. Those people are absolutely right not to have kids, because there's no reason to bring another life into this world knowing you don't want the experience.
They lie to themselves. Everybody wants children, some people make it other don't. Natural selection.
That just prove the point that something ill is happening to our economy for many people to think like that.
@@kiwiking6275 its not necessarily about the economy. People who actually want to be parents will put off children untl they are better able to financially provide for them. But then you have people who are wealthy enough to afford kids and still simply do NOT wish to be parents. Every human being on earth does not desire the experience of raising children.
@@janedo-re-mi2738 I agree with you, and it is one of the reasons. What I was just saying is about the effects of economy based on a statistics showing the trajectory of our situation. We can't deny that our storage of energy is through money. Which is part of economy and every individual. It's too much info so I'm not gonna dive into into it deeply. But its just fascinating.
@@janedo-re-mi2738 It's a strange thing that we consider ourselves to be too poor to have kids in 2022. Do you think you had it worse than your grandparents, or their grandparents before that? It's not financial poverty that we face, it's the poverty of purpose.
I’m a stay at home mom and I think it’s pretty amazing. Sure there are days where you’re surviving to the next, but most days are fun and enjoyable. I do think the women who chooses a career over building a family will regret it. As an employee you’re replaceable at the end of the day, but as a mother there is no one that can take ever your place.
Well said. Much respect.
This is very true, often childless women can be extremely spiteful to women who are mothers in the workplace.
But if you don't have a job you can't consoom as much product as possible
It's nice that you have the luxury of being "a stay at home mom". Not everyone does. Would everything be just as "amazing" if you had to add in the 40 hour work week too?
No one that can take you place until he decides to leave you for a 20 year old and she's your babies new step mom. Any man of means always has some gals ready to see if they can get him to cheat on his wife. You just have to hope he doesn't pull a Chris Watts on you but even if he doesn't sending your babies to meet step mama so she can share in the joy that your kids bring is torture enough.
Husbands tend to die before wives though, and children typically don't look after their parents in old age, so I think a lot of women now see motherhood as a lot of work for little reward - they wonder 'what's the point?' if they'll end up alone anyway.
@@rysloan my parents did everything for their kids and my sister used to hit my mom hard on her head while feeding her when my mom had dementia
Lack of child rearing skills. Not something that has been taught .
@@rysloan That's all fun and games until the bills arrive and you can't pay them because you're a stay at home parent.
@@rysloan there is a balance though. You don't want all of these single moms treating their kids as son husband's which definitely happens in my community
I have it on good authority that most people find it incredibly difficult to empathize with one's future aged self, so I am reasonably certain that the overwhelming majority of people who forego the biological imperative of reproduction aren't doing so out of a desire to issue a preemptive F.U. That same lack-of-empathy for one's future self is also responsible for poor health decisions (smoking) and poor financial decisions (no savings). Most Americans care so little about the well-being of their future selves that they don't even have $500 set aside in case their car breaks down.
It's solipsism, egocentrism, self-absorption and societal validation that is driving this trend.
Honestly, please add more cats to the picture . You're not scaring anyone LMAO!
❤😂forreal
famous funny quote: "I left my ex husband and one day I sat down to reminisce and cry about it, but I couldn't think of a single thing he did to miss him for"
Damn. It’s closer to the truth than we want to say.
Most people who settle in their 20s are divorced and single parents in their 30s. It’s children who suffer the most in broken homes. So it’s better for people to focus on themselves not only financially but emotionally/spiritually. There’s no need to rush marriage and children. Take your time.
This idea that everything happens all by yourself in isolation is silly. Your growth depends on others as does theirs.
The "take your time" applies more to men, since we take the lesser burden of childbirth. If you're a woman who desires a high-end career chances are high you'd push yourself to infertility.
@@hamzamahmood9565 sperm quality also goes down as you enter 40s. So unless you freeze some in your early 20s there is that. Then are you a high value man with a good social network that you cultivated, generally most men do not make efforts in this area and suffer.
@@hamzamahmood9565 infertility can be at any age… I’ve had friends in their 20s who were having trouble conceiving. But I’ve also known women in my family that gave birth in their 40s. Not everyone is meant to have children, that’s gods will. Mostly poor religious 3rd world countries try to manipulate women with fear and into thinking they are invaluable without children.
@@nauxsi It's not a drastic steep I'm quality the way you think it is, quit saying it's the same as women losing their eggs because it's really not. Women are FAR more impacted than men with losing fertility. Men will produce sperm until the day they die, 60-70 year old men can have children no problem. Sure it might take a few sex sessions but it's going to happen.
Women don't operate on the same rules.
Please explain? Why does nobody complain if men in their 40's are single and not have a family? What is so bad about a single woman in her 40's?
The wall. There is going to be a lot of middle aged childless women who missed their chance to have children of their own. Which most will regret.
Gyrocentric society. It's all about women and there issues these days man. Ignore them
I mean, depending on what men you are talking about, someone will complain. If a man is rich and turns down women, you'll get articles complaining about that lol.
Like how 40 year old women are complaining about Leonardo DiCaprio only dating 25 year olds
my uncle had his first kid when he was 58, I don't think a women can do that at that age
@@gibememoni that doesn’t make sense. If a woman decides to never have kids and a man decides to never have kids. Why is only the women talked about?
Everyone woman has her reason for either having children or not having them. Mine is that I wanted to be married first, then have a child, but didn't luck out in love. I also was not financially secure during my reproductive years. I find it disturbing that many people find it okay to lower your standards whether in dating/marriage partners, financial ability, etc. just to have a baby. I may lament not having a child of my own, but I do not regret my choice to not bring a child into a loveless or abusive marriage or single parent household just to satisfy my biological clock.
wise! there are so many women who make the mistake of "following the crowd" and not properly vetting their partner before having multiple kids...it only ends in disaster for everyone and the entire family loses.
It's funny how the "men" are silent on this post. The post that is most "logical" and should appeal to that aspect of who they claim they are, but no! They go around trolling on all the other nonsensical comments instead of giving you props and honorable mentions!
At this rate, especially with this kind of video as confirmation, I think most men just see women and children as a means to an end; women are conquests and children are their financial-fail plan. That's the mind of a man for you; nothing logical about that. And it's wonderful you weren't trapped with any of them, for they only bring chaos and problems into the lives of women and children.
@@leaellas8400 YES! This is sad, but it is the truth for a lot of men i do believe. I thank God EVERYDAY that i never fell for that trap. Having kids with the wrong person is a LIFE sentence...i wish more ladies realized this and utilized more critical thought when it comes to family planning.
I feel bad for these dudes who have that mindset...majority of them who do are going to be VERY disappointed when they are in the latter years of their life and those kids don't "take care of" them, but put them in a retirement home, take charge of their assets, and never visit. This i know because i worked many years in healthcare in nursing homes and i saw it every single day!
@@EadsB7002 Wow, that's sad & should be what they focus on instead of women. They guilt trip women because they don't want to do the inner work.
For me, I'm 28 years old, and even though I desire a family, I realize that I'm not missing out on anything when I realize the true nature of men; they are absolutely selfish in every single way possible. For the very few who have a genuine tendency to love and serve others they "lead" is an rare exception, rather than a rule.
I recently came to the realization that the world continue to produce and train women to be wives for a world filled with improper males - men lacking in every capacity, including being unfit to be husbands and fathers. Unfortunately, it has always been this way, for the most part, but it's just more obvious in today's society due to social media. The generally overlooked unpleasant actions of men in relational dynamics is a huge detriment to society, and I will not partake in it. Men are stubborn when it comes to relational improvement, and this is the crossroads we are at. I would rather die than be with a man unworthy of me. If a man cannot be of upstanding character, integrity, trustworthy, and intentional about his actions, I want nothing of him.
I would rather not entertain any man since nothing is guaranteed. Plus, if he does the unthinkable, I don't want to go to spend life in prison over a bag of bones. A vibrator produces the same results a man may not be able to produce in a woman anyway!
@@EadsB7002 Why do you feel bad for them? They MADE A LIFETIME OF DECISIONS AND CHOSE to respond to every situation a certain way, so they are dealing with the long term consequences of their behavior. They had MANY CHANCES to turn that around and build rapport and meaningful connection with their children over a lifetime prior to their decline, but they chose not to. Why should you now feel sorry for them? Oh please! Men do not have empathy for women in their situation if they treat us the way they do ... So please don't create a pity party for them and their selfish ways.
I'm from a 3rd world country. Most women of my mother's generation were stay at home moms.
The abuse, infidelity and general misery that I saw in these women, cemented my decision to NEVER be economically dependant on a man to give him children. Ever.
I am very happy.
To each their own....
Don't you think thats more to do with them living in extreme poverty than being stay at home moms? Also perhaps that was your own personal experience but that doesn't necessarily represent what other stay at home moms are experiencing.
And that’s exactly why single women without kids are the happiest demographic. It’s not just like that in 3rd world countries. It’s like that around the world.
@@CherryJuli does this trend continue for these women once they are past being fertile? I highly doubt it
That has to do with being in a 3rd world country, which is exactly why you wanted to come here / stay here.
They are talking about the lie we try to sell women in first world countries that they’ll be miserable if they go the traditional family route. The demonization of women who do want to willingly choose that is the problem.
Slave away to your job and have no family if you want that’s perfectly fine, just don’t demonize someone who wants a different life, like they’re stupid and you’re omnipotent.
You should blame the homewrecking women running around with married men.
I feel like y’all are understating the role of financial insecurity. I honestly think that’s the predominant reason people aren’t have kids like they used to. Most regular people don’t have high status jobs, and are just trying to make the most of what they have.
Bingo! Europe has suffered from low birthrates for decades because they have high youth unemployment and too much red tape. We're becoming the same as them.
@@TGP109 I agree it's just annoying hearing this mentally. When it demonstrates a lack of empathy or what young people are going through.
Buncha fu**n excuses lmao
As a man who also doesn't want kids, I find it interesting and kind of annoying the general male perspective on women that don't want kids.
Sure, being a boss babe is one motivator, but there are plenty of others which I think dominate.
For example, it's almost never brought up that a woman has to be pregnant...not men. This doesn't even get into the during/post pregnancy health problems that can arise. Factor in the brunt of parenting disproportionately falling on women or the rising costs of well...everything, it's not really surprising that in an age where women are less dependent on men, more are choosing to opt out of motherhood.
That said, if parenthood is for you, then by all means go for it! I don't care one way or another. I just hate how judgemental we are towards people's decisions regarding kids without even asking "why?"
I love men who think, you are a gem.
Yup; you are a dime a dozen for realizing this 👌 we most definitely are not all 'boss babes', some of us are working because it's literally a human necessity and don't feel the need to fall in line, as it were.
I don't think they were being that judgemental toward the individual women. But is this going to lead to tbe greatest wellbeing for these people l9ng term? I doubt it myself
Well said, some simple and clear points that were missed. The commentary in the video gives off a bias that its almost laughably wrong for a woman to choose not to have children, and that their life will certainly be miserable if they continue on this path. Choices and the results are more nuanced as you've pointed out.
Perfectly said. As a woman, I hate being told I am a certain way and I want certain things because ALL women are the same... No, everyone is different and I personally am not interested in adding motherhood to my resume. Motherhood is job that some women choose and some don't.
Some women want a family life, some don't. Some regret it, some don't. Same with men. As simple as it sounds.
Do the majority of woman want a family or prefer being single? That’s what I’m interested in.
@@juju8470 i think the majority prefers the first one in the long run but that's just my (biased) opinion
@@Faithmay96 I believe that’s the case as well. However, modern problems such as divorce, abuse, financial, mental health, and bad quality people contribute to the low marriage and family rates. That’s my personal theory.
Really a dumb way of looking at it
That's your conclusion? There's individual differences yes, what a marvelous insight
I was married for 20 years and raised a stepson. I lost out on my individuality and am chasing it now in my 40s. Marriage keeps you busy but it doesn't guarantee a future or retirement. Thank God I am having a 2nd chance at life😁
Good luck with that BS! Crying at night must be normal for you! No second chance is possible! Pre-25+ is a one-time thing that you waisted!
Not true, as long as she has life in her body, her mobility, and independence there's still an opportunity to do whatever she wants. Sure it's easier when you're younger, but 40 does not equal death.
@@Lioness_Es It just = to no commitment from the men that you want, and you will most likely end up with a cat for love and crying yourself to sleep! Have fun with that pipe dream!
Not having your own kid must great when other happy women are all talking about their sons and daughters being proud of them!
@@stevesmentkowski7789Said by an arse, lol. You. you are the nearsighted arse 😂😂😂
I’m a 26 year old male and became a father “before I was ready” at 19. Next thing I know, I tripled my income, doing far better in my career, fixed my health massively, and live a comfortable life with my family. My circle of relationships has gotten smaller over the years, but the relationships I do have are much stronger and more meaningful. Having a family and kids is one of the best ways to become more focused in life and grow. Man wasn’t designed for the modern ideal, and it’s clear to me why so many people are depressed. Opting out of families and the lack of meaning in society today are undoubtedly correlated.
Similar experience here 👍
You are absolutely correct
That is very mature of you, unfortunately many men do not grow up that easily
@@MegaWeronika21 I think it's rude of you to assume it was easy. He had a child at 20. I don't think anyone would say he grew up easy, and in some senses he was lucky that the woman he knocked up wasn't a wrongun cause as we all know she could have thoroughly ruined everyone's life and been nothing but supported by the state.
@@TheAcad3mic you accuse someone of being presumptuous/rude while supporting that accusation with the presumption that ease doesn't apply and support the presumption that ease doesn't apply with a claim that he got lucky. Seems like you're confused about the point you're trying to make.
Being single is better than being in an abusive relationship.
True and most of the times people who were born into poverty and abuse have hard times building relationship that won’t have patterns of their childhood traumas. After a couple of broken relationship which only leave you wounded and more ficked up it’s seems normal to give up dating as whole and focus on other things.
As a woman in my forties, the choice of not having children is a combination of bad parenting model, economics and bad relationships. Nothing to do with career.
How is that a 'choice' if the factors that effect it are out of your control?
@@gonzowarburn7045 because some people still chose to have children despite the presence of these factors in their life.
Many women don't want to be unfair to a child for the reasons mentioned here or just because they know they don't want kids. In both cases, it's a decision to make.
I'm disgusted by these two boys cause they're even talking about how men will win in promiscuity. Why should a woman wanna be with someone who's promiscuous and have his kids? Wouldn't I much rather keep my mind stimulated by furthering my education which leads to a good career?
Wrong
@@thomasaanderson12455 if you're not in her shoes, you're stupid for saying that
Chris why are you not married with kids?
Men say enjoy your cats. Women say enjoy your porn. Men say they are happy without women. Women say the same. So what’s the solution, just dragging the opposite sex? Seems like that’s what y’all want to do here.
As long as they are genuinely happy, that's great. If they aren't, well, I guess they need to acknowledge that and find out how to fix it
Those men, when they get old, will probably just blow their brains out or hang themselves. They'll have a long time to get comfortable with the idea of being dead. The women will demand huge amounts of financial resources produced by an ever-shrinking population of young people so they can live to age 90 or more, having been on antidepressants for 60 years, which is completely insane. I fear that society's attitude toward them then will be the same attitude displayed toward today's elderly with respect to coronavirus: that the young should sacrifice endlessly for the old, to include complete financial destruction.
This is end-stage capitalism.
So what solution do you propose? I say let the miserable stay miserable and the ones who have a positive attitude stay on the grind of finding the right partner.
@Lisa Fenwick exactly
@@1911Zoey true just these videos are so miopic, with no solutions and just blaming based on very simplistic ideas.
Whether married or single, any woman ..... more to the point, ANY PERSON, who wishes to be able to be financially independent should do it. Staying in a relationship or leaving shouldn't have to be related to whether you can do it without being FINANCIALLY decimated.
Also, just because the "male ideal" is sometimes sought by women doesn't mean they want to be men or less "female". It's because there are some things about the "male ideal" HISTORICALLY, that are BETTER.
I have been asked often why I am in such a male dominated field. ........ because most great jobs ARE male dominated. Doesn't mean I want to be male or less female.
What women want isn't always in quick rebellious reaction to what they didn't have before.
People /men/women can also be childless, travel alot,, be married, change their minds and decide to have a kid; travel with a kid.
Maybe more women than was realized WANTED to travel, have no kids, etc. even till they find the right guy, ...or whatever.
What women do/have/choose isn't always just a reaction to what men did/do/had/have.
What about childless men? Why does all the responsibility for having and raising children fall on women?
They’re no different from a rotten king who wants to take power away from peasants.
Being able to support yourself is never a bad thing.
can be nice when a woman doesn't see you as a breathing machine for your wallet.
Right now until young population declines and you have no one to take care of future generations
Just realize that you are training yourself to be a man and to be independent. That's not what a marriage to a woman is supposed to be for a man.
Independent, masculine women are properly left on the shelf. They aren't fit for marriage.
@@revan3841well I mean you can’t feed your kids out of love.
@@SeattlePioneerbeing a women solely depending on a man never benefits a women. It leads to abuse and cheating. So calling a woman masculine because they want to be financially independent is not really a bad thing honestly.
I'm 26, and a lot of my friends of the same age, say that they don't want to have kids. Regardless of their career, and despite being in long-term relationships, they will actively choose childlessness. One friend even told me she fears society coercing her into having kids.
I think we should be asking why women don't want to have kids, rather than just sh*tting on them for not having them.
There are many reasons - and as a woman myself - I understand many of them.
For example, health concerns, the fear of pregnancy and childbirth (which a lot of men in the conversation tend to forget or overlook), the child's future, etc.
These are all very valid reasons - and they aren't all connected to the sexual revolution.
I also think women have always had these fears and concerns surrounding motherhood - the only difference nowadays, is that they are no longer forced upon us.
There is another difference nowadays as well: most of those fears are outdated. These days pregnancies are very safe and maternal mortality rate is less than 20 per 100,000 births in the US. In most of EU it is less than 10. So unless you have some serious illness or elevated risk factors, giving birth is perfectly safe for an average woman (in the West).
Also, I think it is perfectly fine to be 26 and have no kids. There is no rush before 30. If a woman aims for 2 kids, it is enough to start around 33 to have two safe births. If you freeze eggs while 30, there is even less of a rush.
If birthrates around the planet stay too low for too long, I am afraid that there will come a time when governments 'strongly encourage' women to have kids, if not outright force motherhood upon them with a penalty of heavily increased taxes. That is not a world I wish to witness.
@@tukkajumala Frozen eggs are kind of a meme, and it's not pain-free. Once thawed there is no guarantee you will actually be able to conceive with them. Some wont survive the thawing, others will have defects. If your womb is inhospitable due to age or otherwise, they won't take. A large minority can't even conceive naturally by 30.
financial reasons are the main reason whether its they want to earn more so dont want kids or dont want kids because they dont earn enough. No one is ready when they have kids.
Unfortunately there are only 2 things remaining in life that a modern, feminist, emancipated woman is still able to give to a man: 1.: sex, and 2.: kid(s). So, if a modern woman decides to remain childless, then only sex remains and nothing else. These childless women can give sex to men till they reach 30-35 years of age, and then they become invisible to men. End of story.
@@spanishjohn420 I think it is crazy. We are far more affluent than at any other time in history, yet for some reason we consider ourselves to be too poor to have kids. It is all because of a faulty perception and way too high standards, not because we are actually poor.
Real poverty is when you can not put enough food on the table in a crammed one-room shack while wearing your only set of clothes. Here in the West we could all afford to have four kids and still easily make ends meet, if only we lowered our standards and spent our income frugally.
In the modern world, where women can equally earn and survive on their own, there is nothing much men can offer in relationship. I believe in the past, majority of marriages were survival for women, now they don't have to pretend and can afford to be honest with what they want, including stating that they don't want marriage and kids at all. Apart from that, men think that marriage and kids bring so much happiness for women, but in reality, it is a lot of burden. In the modern realities, it is hard to build up one's own life, and bringing and taking care of others is too much for many women. Before at least there was some financial security in marriage for women, right now apart from really hard work nothing waiting for them in relationship.
Feminists have been training women to be men, and you are obviously one of their great successes.
@@SeattlePioneeryes, because being financially independent and not wanting to have kids is obviously her trying to be a man.
@@SeattlePioneer So men don't want marriage and children, you say?
Lol so materialism and self interest are the primary reasons? That’s such a dumb statement, just admit you rather focus on your own personal interests. Many women want children because when you’re on your deathbed having the next generation around you means a lot more than having had an amazing career and nice apartment. Isn’t also like there’s more depressed single women than ever before.
How many times will society continue to have this conversation over and over again?.... It all comes down to choice every single time. If you desire marriage and children then having a traditional family is going to make you happy. If you're planning to live a bachelor/bachelorette lifestyle then being childfree/career driven/worldwide travel is the way to go. The beauty of this freedom to choose is not wrong. At the beginning and end of each day, we're all just trying to live and should not be shamed for our choices - men or women.
@@lockbresnar6445 Sources?
@@alphathefirstone1222 Sources? I don't see the "millions of women...angry, remorseful, and bitter" on TikTok about their choices to pursue a career instead of a family. What I see here is men who appear to be very, very afraid about what it means for them that a significant percent of woman are making this choice. As an older married woman, had my kids all with my husband of 30+ years, I am grateful that men and women who don't want to have kids and men who think they are OWED a family by women who aren't interested (many still are)....will not be having children. No child deserves that fate.
@@alphathefirstone1222 Oh, no) while there's a cost to women who choose to be single, the cost is really not excessive. Let's be quite open here and admit why we are discussing this at all. the cost to society is huge, if such a large number of women stop producing new taxpayers, if not a complete collapse. Women are a valuable resource, and that's the whole idea behind why everybody's so intent on keeping them under control and with their heads sown.
She🐒
Unless you are literally 5% of women that will be the case. But you are failing to realize that it is INGRAINED into women's DNA to want to have children. Nobody can ever change that. That is the message. 95% of women want children. So yes even though it is a personal choice the question is, is it the best choice? And the answer is 95% of the time NO it isn't.
It’s funny how the podcasts on this subject always focus on childless RICH women like every single one of us is on boat holidays, casually f*cking and snorting coke every weekend 😆🙄. I’m working poor, have no children and do none of those things. I never wanted a child for the sake of having one, in fact I never wanted any until I met one man at 34 and that switch immediately and surprisingly flipped.
Unfortunately he broke my heart. The years it took to get over that loss mean that I’m now 40 and obviously no one is interested so I’ve accepted my lot. The alternative to that acceptance is literal Hell and I’ve already been there a couple of times. I have no wish to return.
So I try my best to be a good daughter, I have two dogs who are my world and I have the spare time to help my friends and wider community when needed and yes, enjoy myself and indulge hobbies more than a parent might. I never pictured kids in my life AT ALL until I met that one man and now I feel just like I did before that, a bit sad for having missed the chance sure, but it is what it is. I’m much stronger emotionally and grateful for all the comforts and close family I have. It could be a whole lot worse is what I’m saying and there ARE 7+ billion people here, its not like we’re about to run out, although I’m not one of these de-pop people either so I don’t hate humanity and have huge respect for the mothers out there.

Of course there's a push for atomization from the corporate world. When people live alone, more material goods are sold, from housing to appliances to furniture. Also, the more employees in the marketplace competing for a limited number of positions, the more it benefits the employers.
Great point!
We’re literally being conned at the national level 😂😂
They don't want to sell it to us, they want to rent it. Look at the WEF.
they cant be that stupidly short sighted, itll boost profits short term but who is gonna be the customers when they hand the business off to their children and childrens children when birthrates take a nose dive
@@eKko0 That is a good question. The elite seems to genuienly buy into transhumanism so they may think that is their way out. But a lot of it surely is short sightedness. Or not, usually old money survives even big crisises so it doesn't matter even if we are heading towards a total collapse like happened in Egypt, Rome, Greece and all civilizations before us. The elites have prepared for all kinds of events and how much of it have they done in complete secrecy? I can bet a lot. Finance is the closest thing we humans have to magic.
I don't think all single women want kids. Many single men don't want kids. My husband didn't want kids and I could have done it, but decided I was ok without them. We have been married 20 years and very happy. We don't care about passing on our genes, both sets of parents were utterly miserable and still are. We enjoy our time together with our dogs. We also have a group of married friends that opted out of kids. So to each their own. As long as you are happy.
Also we don't live extravagantly with gucci shoes and fancy trips. We do have two homes that we go to seasonally. We also give back to our community by volunteering with humane society. Our passion is welfare of animals and working with animals. Many kids and seniors benefit in their mental health with adopting and caring for pets. Not all of us are meant to be parents, nor should we feel we have to do it. Look at how screwed up society is. It takes a village.
We need to balance this by saying that men 70%+ in certain communities don’t care about fatherhood and responsibility so why should women want to be single mothers specially the middle and lower class women… being childless is in women’s best interest if we use this common scenario
Look after two miscarriages and a 27 week still born daughter (who died for her own illness not due to my pregnancy or her genetic) I don’t know what to say. It happened this year. I’m 26 and I won’t be trying again for some time. If I fall into this cat-egory and become a cat-lady it wasn’t my fault. I tried. Life failed.
I'm so sorry for your loss, I can only imagine how painful it must be.
You weren’t heathy enough
We had a full report of why she died. I assumed that was the case but it wasn’t in fact. It didn’t make much sense to me. As for the miscarriages I don’t know.
@@Madonnalitta1 Thank you for your compassion. It’s really was and sometimes still is. The feeling are becoming much better. I feel more able to share now.
Very sorry for your loss. It must be heartbreaking. My aunt had several miscarriages, but luckily ended up having twins. I know you might not want to try again, the fear is overwhelming, but who knows, you may find the bravery to try again in the future. You're tougher than you think or feel right now. Best of luck.
The only thing that needs to be said to the 45% of single childless women of the approaching 2030's is " congratulations". They will be leading lives that they enjoy and feel successful at.
Nonsense. Most people, single or not, are not happy with life and only fake it on social media.

Why are 2 dudes talking on behalf of childless women? Women with children sacrifice a lot because the American work place isn't supportive of motherhood at all, child care is expensive, and leave options narrow. It's really hard.... It's economics y'all. It Really is.
You should interview an actual woman who doesn’t want kids about this instead of just interviewing dudes about a topic that isn’t even about them.
Are the two married with kids? If Chris wanted to be a father, he would be one already.
Or maybe...
1. People are actually more responsible and do not want to create dysfunctional families and be tied to dysfunctional relationships and involve innocent children while at it
2. The economy is kicking everybody's ass and financial, social instability, and black tax today make it that much harder to make having a family a priority
3. Because mental health issues, health issues are ever on the rise, there are people who are genuinely incapable of raising children and having families
These are all good reasons to not have children.
However unfortunately that's not (from what I've seen) the reasons why most women aren't, it's because hedonism comes first for them and there are certain cultural and mutual influences that encourage them to believe that men won't reject them for it later on in life (90% do).
Society is at present being explicitly geared toward disrespecting the evolutionary needs of men, conflating them with something that is either "out of date" or somehow impinging on the liberty of women.
The reality is those so-called retrograde values are the ONLY reason why we have the society we have today, it's all about male pride, entirely, without the preservation of male dignity in a civilized world instead of getting the advancement of civilization, we get mogadishu from blackhawk down.
It's that simple, either men have their pride respected in some generally agreed upon way, or men will take it in a very violent and destructive manner irrespective of very much around them.
And the reality is women could not do what men have done, and IMO not even when automation takes place will women be able to take the place of men, I see men perceiving the dangers posed by artificial intelligence, I do not see women doing the same, because women are too inclined to take shortcuts that result in authoritarianism and disaster.
Men created the american constitution, the single greatest guarantor against tyranny that has ever existed, women could never conceive of such a thing because their nature is collectivist and innately denigrates the individual.
Honestly at least children will be born in stronger families and happier. They just want repeat the same cycle and not involving with toxic men will make society safer
@@hhoneymamii lol it's always about the "toxic men" as if it's not women who almost always initiate divorces so they can take child support
Thank joe brandon
Nope, it's just a bunch of egocentric narcisists that don't want any responsability in their lives, like the majority of the last generations. Simple as that.
When I see parents and families out and about they just seem tired, bored or stressed out. When I see groups of friends or singles, they seem cheerful and carefree. I just go by what I see.
Not seeing a problem. I'm glad women are realizing they can do whatever they want with their lives.

Damn I didn’t know us childfree women were ruining the world.
I think mothers are lovely and important. I don’t hate children. I just want a life without my own. Single childfree women get SO much hate. I’m literally not hurting anyone nor am I promiscuous and competing with men.
You miss the point. It's not damaging to the world its damaging to you. It's easy to be child free when ur young and healthy with possibly most ur extended family alive. The problem is that your third half of life will be very lonely. We're tribal animals and thrive in a tribe.
No-one said childfree women were ruining the world. People should be able to do what is best for them.
What I do find unsettling, however, is the continuous propaganda pushed by mega-corporations demonizing motherhood, and celebrating semi-hedonistic, worker drone lifestyles instead.
Missed the point doll
Hey, I'm single and childfree. And, sometimes, I like to tell a man "no" just to see his face crack.
And I have every intention to stay that way. I know what's best for myself. No one else can know that for me. It's part of what makes an adult responsible - to know their own limitations. And my limitation is no kids. It would be a disaster for myself and anything that came out of me. I'm just not willing to create that much trauma to satisfy a selfish desire for what many consider a clone. Kids never turn out the way you expect they will, and there's no guarantee they'll even like you, no matter how well you attempt to parent them.
Have fun being an old woman alone with no one to care for you.
Let’s be honest it’s all about control. Women is learning that being alone with cats is actually not a bad thing.
Better than the hassle of men
Until they realize they can't produce any children. Realty is the majority of men and women want children.
🙌
I like cats 🐈
What men need to understand is that just being there with a paycheck is not enough. Men need to do more in relationships now, because women make thier own money now. Men have to do more.
All I have ever wanted to be is a wife and mother, but I honestly don't know if I will ever date again. I'm 33, poor and single. What a slap in the face for trying to find love! I feel like such a fool for not trying to pursue a career first.
Income doesn’t matter to a guy. Just add to his live, bring him peace of mind through loyalty and trustworthiness, don’t let yourself go looks-wise, and be at least decent at personal finance. That’s most of the important stuff right there.
If you want it enough, you’ll make the changes needed and dedicate the time to become the type of woman that a good man wants. I realize the pool is smaller when you’re older, but it’s not impossible if you start now. Not tomorrow. Not next week. Right now. I bet you’ll succeed if you put your mind to it.
Okay just got to the part where it says women shouldn't be enjoying sex? Or at least meaningless sex? So that's something only reserved for dudes? These two need to seriously lighten up it's like they're just feeding off of each other's insecurities.

Exactly! Being a parent is a huge life altering obligation. Your life, money and time are no longer your own. Being childless is freedom. Let the people who love to be parents enjoy their kids, and let the people who enjoy their freedom remain childless.

Not all women who want to progress in their career and do not want children want ‘ fast cars’ ‘ Gucci shoes’ and ‘ loveless sex’. What an over assumption
Not all, nobody said "all".

You surely must realise you're in the minority?
@@dududu5189
Not a minority
I'm 55 years old. I've never heard anyone tell me to have ''loveless'' sex or to be a ''boss babe''. In fact, loveless sex for most women is the norm, whether we want it or not. It makes me wonder where Williamson and Costello have been all their lives that they can bemoan these trends. Is it not obvious to these guys? Economics plays a large role in the whole risk/reward system in an individuals mind. If having children becomes a fast track to poverty and welfare, then people will simply choose to forego them. Add to it the much pushed meme that 50% of all marriages end in divorce and the average person will say ''no way''.
I have half the mindset, 44 female childless by choice but I'm a minimalist and didn't focus on career and possessions. Not necessarily single by choice...

Interesting comment. So what DO you put your time and energy into?
I made a decision at age 19 never to get married or have children.
I spent 37 years, from 1981-2018, as a volunteer leader for the Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts ---the most rewarding part of my life.
In other parts of my life I lived frugally, saved and invested a good part of my income and wound up with a net worth of several million dollars.
@SeattlePioneer I've spent a few years doing work in exchange for room and board, plus pet sitting and a little elderly care. I say I get to make lives better for people and their animals. It's been rewarding, but I have not set myself up financially as well as you. I'm open to and actively trying to see learning and growth opportunities as well as working to become aware of and overcome old, limiting patterns and blocks... which have gotten me to this point. I was married briefly 20 years ago and would still like to experience a great relationship and marriage.
@@chriskiesling9387
As I described in my post, from 1981-2018 I was a volunteer leader for the Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts. That gave me a useful social role in society aside from my work.
I also found that single mothers were often DESPERATE for help in managing their overbooked and underfinanced lives. That was an opportunity to play a role in such families and with such children from time to time. Not on a permanent or long term basis, however.
Those were both ways I could make a rewarding life as a single person for myself, while I was making a reasonable income as a blue collar tradesman.
And because life as a single person can be lived very frugally, I had surplus income which could be invested in stocks and rental real estate, which paid off very well over decades.
I would worry about not being able to accumulate the assets needed to take care of yourself at a future time....
You mention the statistic that single mothers only earn around 7000$. Don't you think that might be part of the explanation why women are reluctant to become mothers? Because it's financially risky?
Single childfree woman here. Actually my life is great, but ofc the top rich (*the really really rich whose names we don't even know) need wage slaves so they constantly push the sheep to reproduce. Life is good and peaceful - I don't want a hardcore career, I simply want my peace of mind & be able to watch the global collapse unfold with total hedonism.
Also, what's the thing with all those cats? Some of us don't want to have pets either.
Also - if women knew that their husbands are doing (=cheating left and right, and it does apply to most men I have met so far) they would never want to marry in the first place. But to each their own.
>
Heh, heh! There is that! The only disappointing thing about being age 73 is that someday I wont be around to laugh at the world's absurdities!
No the globalists are not pushing us to reproduce, they are doing the opposite (with success).
You only know men who cheat? Yeah you don't know other men because you don't desire them. So stop generalizing
Ya most men with option will never be with one women which she will leave anyways
As the saying goes she is not yours it's just your turn
I think government should give money to women to reproduce and after that men and women part ways I think artificial womb is the only option
It is men who disrespect motherhood by calling women who are mother's used / old vaginas. Being a mother is not rewarded rather some men see it as fault.
Your husband won't call you that. Society celebrates mothers enough. Only few people will call you names for having a child and it often happens when a woman has a child out of wedlock or is trying to remarry after a divorce and she has kids. Nothing justifies such name calling. To survive in life you have to be tough enough not to let what few ignorant people say make you lose focus.

Agreed. These guys are just insecure assholes and they’re threatened that a woman could be happy all by themselves.
As a 35 year old man I could not imagine having kids right now. I'm just now starting to earn enough to build a life and future that isn't wage-slavery. The thought of losing all my income, suddenly being terrified of losing my job, having the threat of divorce and child support over my head for 18 years, it all sounds horrible. My parents weren't happy, my friend's parents weren't happy, they either divorced or had some weird awkward arrangement until the kids left. It's just been drilled into my head my whole life that marriage and children is bad news. I imagine a lot of the women my age experienced the same thing. Which creates an interesting question, outside of raising children, are men and women really that different? We all want success, money, and freedom to do enjoyable things without being someone else's bitch our whole life. Maybe we're discovering that reproduction is the only reason for gender roles.

As an artist and novelist, my work is deeply meaningful to me. I don't feel the need to buy shoes or go to Aspen or own a summer cottage. I prefer minimalism. I also never wanted children. I waited to see if that changed as I aged, but my feelings remained the same, so I had my tubes tied at 28. I'm now 53 and have some regrets, but being without children is not one of them. I mentor a young adult woman in the creative arts and I'm godmother to her child. That has been very nice.

THEY must believe that they would have nobody around them if they didn't have a legal or blood relationship with those people.

One might argue guys are the only ones left to discuss the topic... we left women to their devices to pursue their happiness and now they're more drugged up/depressed than ever with fewer and fewer having children. Meanwhile, they blame men for not being "man enough" to want to get married. Most men I know want to get married, they just don't want to get divorced.

Loyal, beautiful word.
Men want young aka fertile women. The cold fact is, from the day you hit 20, if you are still single, your value as a woman decreases every year. You can't produce more healthy eggs. That being said, nowadays good men are as rare as good women and I would rather look for a good woman as a good man rather than look for a good man as a good woman. My tip is that the older you are, the lower your standards should be.
So given that woman are choosing the top guys on dating apps, like the top 20%, how about dropping the standards toward someone who will take you seriously. The guys most woman are picking are the top guys- so they have options.
That's a manosphere myth. Average age of marriage and having children is early 30's for both women and men .
As bad as this sounds. It also makes me remember the fact that most western countries (America in particular) have divorce rates around 50%. Many people get married for the wrong reasons and end having families with the wrong people. When you're pressured to be married and pump out babies before you're 25 for a lot of people that doesn't end well. Unless of course you're in some middle east or Asian country where divorce is either illegal or socially frowned upon, or you're in an arranged marriage where you don't have much of a choice.
Those middle Eastern and Asian countries are doing far far FAR better than the west when it comes to preserving marriage, family, and subsequently social structure. Its very typical of you to assume that these countries make divorce illegal or arranged marriage is the same as forced marriage When in reality the two are very different things. And btw, divorce is forbidden in roman catholicism, not in islam. And have you lived in those countries? Visited their homes? The West loves to pretend that countries that still value marriage MUST be trapped in unhappy marriages. You might be surprised to find that the majority of thode marriages are very happy and functional, because of a number of factors in terms of how relationships in the east work. We don't have sex before marriage, we keep it in the marriage. We value our religious teachings on marriage. 99.9 per cent of children are born into a married home with a mother and a father. Family structures are stronger. The elderly are not abandoned. Women are not used for hedonistic sexual pleasures then dumped and left traumatised. Eastern communities value COMMITMENT and FAMILY because of our strong religious values Alhumdillilah.
@@SA-rx3dv The length of a marriage is not equivalent to the success of a marriage because children were produced.
There are many stories of men stepping out of their marriage and women/men being miserable in their marriage until the day they die because they sacrificed themselves and lost themselves doing so, for various reasons.
Whether the men in these comments fully understand or not but the truth is that adults fully settle into themselves, know themselves after 30 or late 20s. Marriage before then is a gamble. I am not specifying a gender here
yep, too many folks not properly vetting partners before getting married and having kids...then we continue a downward spiral in society where there are more divorces/families end up splitting up and everyone loses. but nobody wants to talk about that. it's all like it's a competition to "check off all of the boxes" or something...and the entire family eventually ends up getting hurt.
Ironically having fewer option to leave a marriage makes people WORK HARDER into making marriage a success. If the door out is always right there, then of course you end up with a society of quitters who can’t tolerate hardship.
"Those trips suck!"
Yeah, no. Traveling with your friends and NO KIDS is awesome. Traveling solo is great too. You can do exactly what you want.
There is a lot to consider when having a child, mainly what environment they will grow in. I would only consider having children in a healthy environment with a healthy relationship. The society we are in is NOT a healthy environment and so far I haven't found a partner I would consider having children with. I will remain single and childless till these requirements are met because I want healthy well adjusted children🤗
This logic is bad for society because only responsible people use it. It’s something of a conundrum, but society will only get worse when people like you choose not to have kids. You’re contributing to the problem yourself.
You can see how this kind of thinking leads to a vicious cycle of the best abstaining from having kids and only the worst groups breeding, which makes the best even more reluctant to have kids.
@@devinglass9967 He doesn't owe society however. Being responsible when planning children isn't a failing. People that shouldn't have children when they aren't ready or have them unplanned and don't step up to the responsibility is a personal failing on them. And him having children doesn't necessarily fix that issue.
He also can't find a partner that would be a good coparent either which is another problem.
@@devinglass9967 What's the alternative? Please give constructive criticism instead of just a blanket statement About how I'm wrong for my beliefs and assessments of my own situation. I've thought long and hard about the consequences. I am fully committed to put in the work but until there's hope that my children won't be taken from me(which is coming because countries are attempting to establish children having their own rights-which means no more parental rights), and until I marry a man who I feel safe and compatible with(because having heathy and happy parents is the best environment for a child to thrive) I won't have children.

What’s interesting is I see a lot of women on TikTok with kids and husbands miserable asf, and complaining of being exhausted and wanting to go back.
Interesting. I see plenty of women wishing they could go back and find a good man and have children.
TikTok and social media are not the truth. The sort of person likely to make a lot of TikTok videos - and thus be popular on TikTok, more likely to have been viewed by you - is the same sort of person who is more likely to complain. She found a social media niche- everyday frustrations. I can't prove this, but I'd wager that for every one TikTok person complaining, there are 10,000 people who are genuinely happy with having a family.
Statistically women who are married and have kids are happier. Not only that, but they live longer. Keep in mind that what you see on TikTok is part of this toxic algorithm that shows the minority of people who have extreme opinions. I been on TikTok myself a couple times and wouldn’t be surprised if it’s some Chinese psyop used to usher in social collapse.
@@johansigg3869aha its the truth. Men just want women to keep believing that marriage is the ultimate fulfilment 😂 its just endless cooking and cleaning and serving bah
@hanalala3164 The comment above has 22 likes, and the top comment has like 5k. It is not the truth that marriage is miserable, you have just convinced yourself of that to cope. Some marriages are miserable, and it's just as often the wife's fault as the husband's. Endless cooking and cleaning? I don't think you're married.
Idk about this, my mum is an empty nester now and hangs out with older childless women and most are happy enough. The ones who aren't childless by choice have made their peace with it. My granny had 10 kids but when they moved out she spent more time with friends.
Also, a bit weird to discuss a particular demographic while not including them in said discussion. I like your videos usually, but I can't deny that's very strange.

As a person in my late 40's I can speak to a time of life that comes up in the later 30's. The differences in ones life choices for both good and bad maximize over time. In the later 30's you come to an interesting cross section as enough time is now showing marked differences in life trajectories between you and your same age peers. And you start to do that math that says that you are 20-25 years out from that 65 retirement age. Depending on how one is fairing and ones personality as to how this is processed it can become a spot where one starts to experience physiological pain of regret as options are disappearing in a noticeable way.
In ones 20's it is easy to think all things are possible. That changes the closer one gets to the deadline. What makes the idea of being single or married convoluted is that not all marriages work. The failure of this partnership can devastate both parties. There is risk in seeking this reward that can be somewhat mitigated in being careful in mate selection and participating in a community that promotes monogamy. However the most successful of people at that mid point of working years are going to be the ones who have successfully partnered up at a younger age. They will have had the best chances to build equity. A female in their late 30's who had good options to partner up long before then but decided not to is going to potentially have a long time to feel that regret especially if their dating life/ potential mate quality options have drastically changed.
Boy stfu studies says otherwise get over it
It's funny how I only know of single women being happy and single men being miserable.
Ironic when women are the #1 consumers of anti depressants.
Anecdotal experiences. And do these "happy" single women tell you if they're on anti-depressants?
Somewhere around 25% of American women are.
Tik Tok says otherwise 😂
I don’t even think one path is superior to the other (child free vs motherhood)…but why again is it such an issue if that’s what some women choose? This behavior is actively encouraged in men constantly. But now that some women want in, it’s problematic? Now it’s sad and dystopian? Please explain
The problem isn’t the choice, it’s the often bad information or lack of information that women use to make that choice. Choices are great. Choices made in ignorance are not. And most people, not just women, are making life long choices with very little information and very little thought about the consequences or what they actually will want for the rest of their life.
For example;
The choice to pursue continuous moments of happiness might sound like a great choice. Until you find out that, biologically, neuro-chemically, and psychologically, you are far more likely to find a better life through pursuit of meaning, purpose, and fulfillment. Where is the one place that almost all humans get the most amount of these feelings of meaning, purpose, and fulfillment? It’s most often from a good relationship with their spouse, and the children they bring into the world. That’s the data talking, not me.
So when women make the decision to not have children, are ALL of them informed of things like this? Are ALL of them aware that waiting in til you’re 30/35/40 to try to find someone to be with or start having kids is a highly suboptimal situation to be in if that ends up becoming your goal? Have they though it through to when they’re 70 years old and have no one to take care of them, and no legacy to leave behind to go out and do great things after you’re gone? Something tells me plenty of them haven’t thought it all the way through. Most people, men and women both, seem to be not thinking all the way through their choices as of late.
As a small business owner and a mother who’s now an empty nester. You can’t have it all. It was very hard balancing building a business with mothering. And most kids want their mothers for day to day needs. So I always tell young women you’re not a man and trying to compete with very driven men in corporate America is a challenge. Be ready to work 60+ hours a week while raising your family 😉 you’ll be grinding your teeth while living on caffeine just to make it through the day.
Thank you for your honesty. I wish there were more sensible, wise women out there, to guide the young and foolish younger girls.
@@C12341 No, she didn't have it all, and neither did her kids. That was her point.
@@C12341 far from having it all! I missed a lot of school activities and family time just so I could be a boss babe
Women aren't biologically built to handle being provider while being a nurturer. They did studies and found women that go through the same day to day activities as men have much higher levels of cortisol. I think it was six times the amount as men, and women were less fulfilled at the end of the day compared to the men. When a woman enters fight or flight, which is the daily stresses of work, it wreaks havoc on her body because it's not her intended biological duty. If it was women would've evolved to have the same physical composition as men through hormonal output.
Honestly? I think one of the biggest issues, which isn't talked about, is that we prepare our young people to be ready for careers, but not parenting.
There was some real logic to home economics. Sure, you need lots of schooling and experience to be a doctor, architect, etc. But to be a mom, a good one, how much do you need to know? What level of preparation for that role do we as a society give women?
Being a stay at home mom is a full time job. Yes, it used to be harder before lots of inventions freed up time, but easily the biggest challenge is dealing with the younguns. That will never be automated away, lol.
Why aren't we preparing women for motherhood? Well, probably cause it would be called sexist
It takes two to tango. If a woman doesn't have a man, it's because men are not interested in forming loving relationships.
Men cannot have a discussion about singledom without addressing birth trauma.
Old Age homes are full of hard working parents with no support from children, exposed to neglectful staff. And settling for an unhappy relationship is soul-crushing. Great for people who find a wonderful partner.
I’m a very family-oriented, traditional woman. But I’m also very unattractive physically so having a partner and children is impossible - I have no choice but to focus on career and hobbies to stop thinking about it
I find that hard to believe, frankly. People who are f***-ugly are almost never aware of it, for some reason. That part of their brain is missing. You aren't as ugly as you think you are - the odds of that are against you.
@@hunterbidensaidslesion1356 it’s not that difficult to realise, especially when people make rude comments about your face and body. I just lost in the genetic lottery 😅
@@lucadesanctis563 I did everything I could, surgery is the only option left. Unfortunately men don’t care about education or carrer if a woman is not pretty (and I don’t blame them for it, it’s normal that you want to be attracted physically to your partner).
But there are many studies which show that for women looks aren’t the most important thing. Social status, money, job, education is more attractive than just looks. Some studies show that women care about intelligence twice as much as men. That’s why men can be very attractive without being handsome or fit.
@@maj3732 Glad you are making light of your situation. Not that you asked but I think you have a solid head on your shoulders and good heart. Best of luck to you.
You mean you are FAT? You must put down your sin(gluttony or addiction if you will).... To get what you really want
C'mon there is far more to not having kids than being able to afford Gucci shoes and a second home! There are almost infinite options how to spend your life, far more things than could ever be done in a single lifetime, and while having children gives certain experiences that childless people will never get, the opposite is also true. It's a personal choice and everyone has different priorities!
We are a reproductive species like all others. our biology drives us to reproduce. you want to believe its a personal choice, this is a delusion. this is biology and this cannot be changed. their is nothing that you cannot do in your life if you have kids. oh and 90% of these infinite options on how to spend your life you speak of has only really became possible over the last 80 years
Human beings who are able to neglect the instinct to give birth or raise children are most likely able to do so because of a psychosis. It's impossible to be truly happy about life if you neglect your instincts because they are in every way the greatest part of who you are and only an upset state of mind can be the cause of such "deliberate" decision.
Peace and Love.
@@petneb 😂😂😂
@@petneb especially in the case of women, men can deal with the fact of not having children fsr easier
@@petneb Interesting perspective but I suppose to verify your theory you'd have to get into the mind of every individual who claims to not want children. Not totally sure what you mean by "truly happy" either - there is more than one way to be happy, and nobody is happy ALL the time. For me personally, maybe I could be convinced to have children if I had unlimited time and resources, but I do not, and there are other routes to happiness and fulfilment that I prioritise over having kids.
Also, even if I did agree that not wanting children could only be a result of some kind of psychosis (I do not agree btw), then surely you agree that we all have mental issues to some degree (I sure as hell do 🤣). Issues that are often out of our control and that influence the way we think and see the world... but that still doesn't change the fact that many people genuinely do not want kids!
✌
Who would want to have children in this cesspit? Life was never easy, nowadays it's hell. No wonder.

It is best for the future of humanity and the world that humanity depopulates anyway to balance the effects of overpopulation.
1. Material (typically male) success is celebrated in society, so the world is programmed to view that as enviable. If we glorify mothers on billboards, in magazines and on the silver screen, culture will shift.
2. Some women may want children, but fail to find a suitable life partner/father. People can’t just click their finger and find a suitable partner/get pregnant. A lot of modern men are not financially, or emotionally suitable for fatherhood, although for some reason, plenty of women will have children with men who can’t, or won’t provide. From what I’ve seen, it’s most likely to be women who are vulnerable, and/or have a lower IQ. Intelligent women (and men) are highly selective when it comes to choosing a mate.
3. All men need to do to have a baby is orgasm, so it’s a much easier and even enjoyable prospect for men. For this reason, I’m not a feminist, because males and females could never be equal. As soon as pregnancy is an option, it makes total sense that the one who doesn’t bear the weight of pregnancy and breastfeeding would be the one who provides and protects.
4. As a former teacher, I know invested stay-at-home mothers raise top-performing children. I’ll defend and celebrate the role of mother and stay-at-home mum, because I know they generate better outcomes for children. Being a stay-at-home mum is a worthwhile life path if women choose the right mate.
Couldn’t agree more.
1. It doesn't have to be on the screen. It can be a cultural shift by parents who teach it by living by it. It starts from a young age, children should have good opinion of the opposite gender as someday they will need to pick a partner from them. Not the toxic stuff social media promotes. Islam is fastest growing religion and its no coincidence that the mother and well being of women is at the centre.
All men need to do to have a baby isn't just orgasm. It requires commitment, hardwork, confidence, leadership etc...no man will just walk up to a woman and deposit his sperm in her. He gets to know her, take her out on dates, commit, and provide etc... before he gets the chance to deposit his sperm in her and also her to carry their baby. Western societies tend to minimise the role of men when it comes to procreation. It isn't easy at all. Go figure!
I think the men who push this fear are worried that men tend to be worse off without marriage (life partners) or children. They always bring up divorce rates but never speak on when men marry within their social class they earn more money and are more likelier to get a promotion. The opposite is for women. Also being 30 and single is the best bet for sine women. It's not just about travel and having a expendable income it's of having the opportunity to rely on yourself, nurture your interests and not do things for the sake of doing things. And having biological children isn't they only way to be maternal. There is volunteering, adoption, mentoring, being a children's doctor/psychologist.
@@AYYOluvable Human beings naturally want to pass their genes to the next generation, we have a natural instinct to want to procreate. Adopting a child won't fulfil that desire if you have never had a child of your own. Get a child of yours if you can unless you can't make one.
I'm french and there is a french historian called Johann Chapoutot who is specialised in Nazism, and he wrote a book called "Libres d'obéir, le management du nazisme à aujourd'hui", in English I would translate it as "Free to obey, management from nazism to nowdays". I thought of this because of what William Costello points out about the corporate language that she uses to talk about her experience. Language isn't neutral at all and using corpoate language to talk about your private life is a sign of having been profoundly imbued with a certain ideology. And other french philosopher studied the language of neoliberalism and it's fascinating too: Sandra Lucbert. Check it up!
That's interesting!
Most people think in words. Some people have no inner voice. I don't know how they think. Einstein said that sometimes he thought in music, which I have no concept of. I have had other people tell me they sort of thought using colors.
But yeah, some people's ideology is written on their casual language.

You are not single by choice. The ideal man of your dreams that you wanted just doesn't want you. You are a femcel.

LOL Men saying all of this, but women are just out here enjoying our freedom.
@@kc6810To be fair, many men who talk about this are actually trying to look out for women. I’m hearing more and more of women who never intended to be single and childless as a goal, but end up as such due to the cultural push towards it. These women will live a life alone, filled with regrets about the life they wanted yet can no longer have.
That’s why they’re talking about it. They don’t want women to be uninformed/misinformed about this really big decision.
Most people, men and women, find the most satisfaction, purpose, and fulfillment in life with a loving partner and children. This is seen in both psychological studies as well as in neuroscience. Very very few men and women are actually fulfilled and find true purpose and meaning in their lives in the long run in their careers and friend groups alone. Something like 10% iirc. I could be a bit off on the %, but it’s around there.
Women should 100% be free to choose, but they should be VERY well informed so they can make the best decision for their long term fulfillment, meaning, and purpose and not moment to moment happiness. That’s the reason it’s important.
Also, population collapse is already happening, so that’s not great either lol. But that’s ancillary to the fact that you’re most likely to have the best life with a loving partner and children in a general sense.
George carlin would laugh at what you said😂💀.
Get yourself a cat and a dog.
Women are expected to work full time, keep up on the cooking and cleaning and be the primary parent as far as spending time and raising children. The genders are pretty equal in the workplace but not in the home. For the most part those expectations have not caught up and we have a lot of men who were never taught to be equal partners in the home as well. Nobody wants to do all that because there is no room for self-care and enjoyment. Can we blame women? I certainly can not. Women have to make choices and think of their own financial security and well-being because many men are too stuck on traditional gender roles to have true equality. All men are expected to do is work and come home and women are expected to work, come home and take care of everything else. Until that changes I think this will only get worse. Statistically single and childless women are the happiest demographic and it doesn't take a genius to figure out why.
Exactly, well said

Thanks for bringing this into the conversation. The value of motherhood has been degraded . And as a woman who considers motherhood to be the biggest value I offer the community, it takes a lot to not feel beleaguered by this rhetoric. Not to push the envelope here but reestablishing motherhood as a worthy effort is good but also, fatherhood, and being a husband or a being wife are all roles that interconnect and deeply effect the experience.

It's not impossible. Nothing is. I've noticed a lot of women say they don't want kids, until they find a man who's genes they want to reproduce.
Motherhood doesn't need to be re-established. It is already worthy enough.
Sure, but no need to legislate women into womb slavery to do it.
It's psychological war. They hate nothing more than happy families with strong father and mother figures. Strong families are anti-consumerist and utterly anti-liberal. That is why they hate them, you can't make profit cattle out of people who have an identity, family and community.

I am a former psychotherapist and currently support people to grow in their Awareness. I am now 63 and did not have children. I am not lonely and I am very very fulfilled, intellectually, emotionally, spiritually. My nieces are stay at home mom's. I think that is great if they want to do that and have the means to do that. Not all women find that satisfying or fulfilling however. And not every woman needs a man to be fulfilled just like not every man needs a woman to be fulfilled. There is so much more to life and so many more paths in life than having children which (rightly so) take a LOT of attention and focus away from any other good, productive and loving things one can do in the world. I have so many clients whose mothers (or fathers) were addicted to alcohol or work or who were mentally compromised. Those are more reasons for both men and women not to have children. I love that women are going for what they want. Many of us are exercising freedom of choice to follow our spiritual calling in the world. And do we really need to contribute to a larger world population?

Lost me on this argument.
I feel like one point that is missing in the discussion constantly is that to a young woman: being a 45-50 year old mother and wife can sometimes look like a shitty deal. Think about it: your children have grown up and left the nest so the main thing that got you out of bed everyday is gone, a lot of husbands at this point have been checked out of the relationship for a decade and a half (they have no capacity for emotional intimacy and would rather watch porn that have sex with a their wife), on top of all that, these women don’t really have any activities to fill their time because they spent their most productive years (20s and 30s) raising children rather than developing any skills or career. Being a mother can look like a thankless job that just leaves you taken for granted and bored. I want to emphasize that not all women are in this situation. Many women are happy with good husbands... but as a young women myself I’ve seen enough of the former situation to make me think long and hard about what I want to do with the next few years...

Excellent discussion and sobering information. Basically, both men and women are doing whatever the hell they want now instead of comforming to yesterday's societal norms -- which have also vanished.
