Sadly, married people are just as self absorbed.
One of my daughters is single with a cat. Living in NY, she says that she’s not very hopeful for ever getting married because the guys she meets are either flakes or on the autism spectrum. Another of my daughters has a boyfriend who is masculine in nature, though surprisingly weak with girl hands, haha.
I think the problem is with what leftist culture has done to our boys, not with selfish women. Many of the boys coming out of leftist schools have nothing to add to what women already have: no strength, no leadership, no fixing skills, no courage, etc....
it’s okay to be selfish in my book. Let people live their lives as they see fit.
In Darwinian terms genetic suicide by Leftists is a net positive.
I don’t disagree this is a problem.
But selfish people are still selfish when they have kids. Now they have victims of their selfishness. Often generationally.
I had parents like that. It was an unpleasant childhood, and I had very little to do with either parent once an adult. I fulfill my Biblical mandate and nothing more, putting far more into my wife, children, my siblings, and the wife’s parents (who were lovely).
I’m doing fine because I joined the military young and got away. My siblings are permanently damaged. And Democrats. One insanely so. They passed the selfishness down to their children.
In sum, I don’t think selfish people having kids is a bad thing. It’s probably for the best, overall, in fact.
I had a woman exactly like this as our neighbor.
Very old, Terribly dirty! Her place smelled horribly.
She used to feed stray cats.
Cats did not recognized property lines so they constantly trespassed on our yard, covering it with feces and urine.
Yuck!
I hate cats since!
Seems like secular pontification.
Selfish, self-indulgent, or self-centered are not adjectives which describe anyone who believes there is something greater than self and puts God first and foremost.
I kept looking for references to God and spirituality but didn't find any.
Then I read the smart-ass comment in the author's bio.
Follow him at local pub crawls to ensure he gets an Uber.
What has destroyed America was the replacement of the founding Americans with global immigration, all from cultures with big families and zero concern for the country outside of their own family, which is why all of their nations are varying degrees of hell holes, no one thinks of the common future and what is good and decent for their neighbors.
I never wanted kids. How is my not having kids a detriment to society? There is no shortage of people breeding.
