The REAL reason why women are freezing their eggs - they are waiting for the perfect father
UK Daily Mail ^ | September 7, 2016 | Fiona MacRae

They are often portrayed as hard-hearted individuals who are putting motherhood on hold in order to climb the career ladder. But women who freeze their eggs are actually waiting for a man who is perfect father material to come along. Researcher Kylie Baldwin, who asked a group of women why they froze their eggs, said: 'I think they were looking for a hands-on father. 'And it was the absence of this particular type of potential father, not just the absence of any partner, that led them to freeze the eggs.

some of the women were in a relationships – but froze their eggs because they didn't believe their partner was father material and were hoping someone better would come along

Stop hooking up ... er, I mean "being in a relationship" ... with creeps.

These are affluent women.

A couple steps down the socio-economic ladder, women, have a couple kids by the local coke dealer or douchebag, and THEN they start looking for that "perfect father material".

I see many more single child households (both married and single moms) that consist of one girl as opposed to one boy. I think that in many of these situations, the mother thinks she has obtained her little sole mate. A girl raised in this situation is one that a male should avoid marrying at all costs.

Yep. Girl I've known since elementary school.....was a spoiled brat then, literally Veruca Salt.

You get the drift.....anyways, she grew up to be a smoking HOT brat. Now she is 45, still good looking and has never been married. Still FB friends with her....all she does now is lament "no good men"...and "what do I have to do?"...etc.

She trusts my opinion and I told her to get to church and quit posting liberal crap on FB....and this was 5 years ago. If she had the peace of Christ and a little humility and self control, she would have DOZENS of men knocking at her door, but she sits at home, alone because men that know better know not to get involved with crazy, vindictive, selfish, liberal women.

If you tried that with the cat we had when I was a kid, your hands would look like they had been run through a wood chipper.

Nah, guys around my age are waking up to the reality of the matriarchy, and a few are walking away from relationships altogether. We’re slowly leaving the plantation and not becoming wage slaves to some broad.

It really helps to look at things at a biological level.

1) Marriage and a couple raising their children is a superior way to raise children. It benefits the husband, the wife, and especially the children. It is far better than just monogamy.

2) If children are to be raised in such a way that they can develop a healthy relationship with their spouse, they must be raised in a mixed gender environment. Every element of their life, except for private times, needs the opposite gender there and interactive with them in a chaperoned manner.

Children with several siblings who are of the opposite gender usually have much better relations with those of the opposite gender.

It is devastating for children who are raised in gender isolation, only exposed to children of the opposite gender in circumstances where they are kept too busy to interact. Then, at the age of 17 or 18, they are expected to date, then marry someone they like and have children in a stable environment. It’s not going to happen.

You might as well invite them into an operating theater during open heart surgery, then ask them to “finish up and close”. It’s not going to happen in such a way that the patient lives.

They will have flings with the smooth talkers and blame you for it not working.

I thought the problem was that the patriarchy destroys women by forcing them into loveless marriages and becoming sex slaves and baby factories.

Oh, I forgot that we are talking about modern America, not the rest of the world.

It all the mans fault in family court.

A department store opened in New York City that sold men and a woman decides to visit it in search of a husband.
At the store’s entrance, there’s a sign outlining the department store policy.
The first rule states that you can only enter the store once.
There are six floors and on each floor you can choose a husband or elect to move on to the next floor.
You cannot visit a floor more than once other than to leave the building.

The woman visits the first floor.
The sign reads:
· Men with jobs.

She moves on to the second floor:
· Men with jobs that adore children.

She moves on the the third floor where the sign reads:
· Wealthy men that adore children and are very handsome.

She thinks to herself, “that’s a very good deal” yet moves on to the fourth floor:
· Wealthy men that adore children, are very handsome and help with the household chores.

She decides to move on as things are constantly improving:
· Wealthy men that adore children, are very handsome, help with the household chores and are very romantic.

The woman is about to make her purchase but can’t resist moving on to the sixth floor.
There the sign reads:
· You are visitor number 31,456,012 on this floor.
· There are no men here.
· This floor exists as proof that it is impossible to please women.

Opposite this department store, another department store opened that sold women. The sign on the first floor reads:
· Women that love sex.
On the second floor the sign reads:
· Women that love sex and are wealthy.
On the third floor the sign reads:
· Women that love sex, are wealthy and have large breasts.

Not a single man has visited the fourth floor.

They usually end up with small dogs on their laps and scarves around their necks to hide the first signs of aging.

That man who lives up to your standards will go for someone younger and better looking than you who doesn't have to freeze her eggs.

I hear lots of talk about “paying it forward” these days. Well, if women want better men they would ensure that their sons are raised as good men. That’s how it works.

I don’t believe that’s the reason. Not for the most part anyway.

These women might want to re-examine their lives because their real problem with finding a man might be in the mirror.

In some regards, it IS because they put their careers first.
Instead of working on their career but focusing on finding a partner in their 20s, when attractiveness and selection is great, they often drop guys who want to commit in their late 20s saying “no kids now, no marriage now”, losing perfectly good partners by putting them last.
Once they hit their 30s and NOW want to settle down, the best choices are usually already married and the remainder are split between permanent bachelors, divorced who are reluctant to commit and the lesser choices that too many settle for, have a kid with and divorce, then hating all men.

I’ve observed this myself, when I married my husband at 23 and was told I was too young. Had my first child at 26 and had professional women tell me I was derailing my career, should wait five to ten more years. I brought up that in ten years, I might not be able to have children.
Now I’m in my late 30s with one in elementary and one in middle school. We’ve watches some single women struggle to find partners, now that they finally look for them, a few marry and divorce late, some struggle now to have children according to the feminist ideal that violates biology (have fun until 35, then try to have a baby before it is too late).

The ideal time to find a partner is in your twenties, due to maturity, selection and biology. Feminists said wait until your 30s or even 40s, it is just as good.

The liberal left has been denying biology for ideology for years. The transgenderism (if we say a man is a woman when he puts on a dress then it proves there’s no difference between men and women) is only the more radical result of denying biology for ideology.
