After a handful of underwhelming relationships and dozens of disappointing first dates, Andrea Vorlicek recently called off the search for a husband.
The 29-year-old always thought she’d have found her life partner by now. Instead, she’s house hunting solo and considering having kids on her own.
“I’m financially self-sufficient enough to do these things myself,” said Vorlicek, a Boston-based accountant. “I’m willing to accept being single versus settling for someone who isn’t the right fit.”
She sees her plans for an independent future as making the best of a lousy situation. “I don’t want to sit here and say I’m 100% happy,” Vorlicek said. “But I feel happier just accepting my reality. It’s mentally and emotionally a sense of peace.”
American women have never been this resigned to staying single. They are responding to major demographic shifts, including huge and growing gender gaps in economic and educational attainment, political affiliation and beliefs about what a family should look like.
“The numbers aren’t netting out,” said Daniel Cox, director of the survey center at the American Enterprise Institute (AEI), a conservative think tank.

Used car lot. ☢️
She don't need no man. She's a boss babe.
"Sheng Nu" is a Chinese term that refers to unmarried women over the age of 25. The phrase literally translates to "leftover woman". In Japan, women over 25 are referred to as a "Christmas cake" because no one wants a Christmas cake after the 25th.
A majority of Americans have woken up.
At the same time, we still have 48% of America who voted for Kamala Harris in 2024.
The article has some great clues on one key issue here (Katie is another woman covered in the article):
“Many of the men Katie met, she said, either seemed turned off by her ambition or weren’t career-oriented enough for her. She felt discouraged by just how many of her male friends similarly said they expect their future wives to prioritize their families over their jobs.”
Notice the men used the words “prioritize their families”. That meant they wanted to be treated as important and wanted any children to be treated as important.
The selfish modern woman cannot or will not do that. The notion of working together as a team is beyond their comprehension.
The same people who want you to believe that Jao Bai-din won in 2020 want you to believe that 48% voted for Kamala Harris.
Mail order bride. Kidding, sort of. But, no kids without 2 parents. Not fair to the kids. Selfish to not put them first. Adults wants and needs are not important.
My guess is these women are so selfish they’re insufferable. Have kids on your own?
Does Dylan Mulvany count.
Just asking.🕺🏻
Too many young men today are wasting their time on video games, gambling, and self-destructive habits, with drug and alcohol abuse rates far higher than those of women.
Meanwhile, young women are focused on education, advancing their careers, and striving for real achievement.
I think you should comment on it.
And why is that happening?
Wants to buy a house and raise kids on her own? You go, girl!
The young men are being told by “experts” and the mass media they are evil oppressors, rapists, mysogynists, the cause of all the troubles in the world.
If they believe what they are told then of course they have no motivation.
You forgot porn.
Most women aren’t great catches either.
The left’s war on marriage, on the family, and on traditional values has been a roaring success.
#5. Used 🧬car lot. Very used. 🧬🗳️👀🚧
You are a man wisdom.
They took away the Prince in the remake of Snow White movie. I think it’s a perfect representation of where our culture is currently at.
The goal of the Left is to expand the size of the government.
It's working.
