“A Career Is More Meaningful Than Marriage and Children”
I like to test lifestyle choices with the question “what if everyone chose that?”. If no one chose a meaningful career over marriage and children, we’d have a society with a lot of people feeling unfulfilled, career-wise. If everyone chose a meaningful career over marriage and children, we’d quickly become extinct.
OOH OOH 5!!!!! HERE!!!
5. ANY guy can raise ANY OTHER GUY’S kid and love the kid just as much.
Baby daddies are interchangeable.
So don’t worry about marriage or even dating the guy.
Cause you’ll have the kid and whoever you date will treat that kid like their very own.
99 percent of the time it doesn’t work that way.
I give credit to the 1 percent of men that do treat the kids like their own.
The Wall is still undefeated.
Men need American women like a bicycle needs a fish.
Fortunately there are other options.
Regarding #2 men having tons of casual sex isn’t good for society either. It leads to children out of wedlock, who have poorer outcomes than children raised in a two-parent family. STDs also don’t care what kind of plumbing you have; a promiscuous man is just as likely to get them as a promiscuous woman. STD treatment then raises health care costs for everyone.
As for #4 I think it depends very much on the woman. Some women do find fulfillment in a career, others just get bored, some women want to be mothers, others don’t. Fulfillment, like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder.

RE: ANY guy can raise ANY OTHER GUY’S kid and love the kid just as much.
Well, Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn raised the kid of their fellow Weather Underground friends after they were jailed for terrorism. The kid’s name is Chesa Boudin.
He was recently elected as DA for the City of San Francisco and promptly said that he would decriminalize public peeing.
Yep, they loved the kid so much that they actually taught him their values.
RE: It leads to children out of wedlock, who have poorer outcomes than children raised in a two-parent family.
The liberal’s counter-argument would be that it does not necessarily lead to children out of wedlock as long as you properly use contraceptives.
But, our economy has been transformed to adjust work and pay to a workforce that has absorbed women. There's no going back.
A job in an office shuffling emails from your inbox to your outbox, figuring out how to get work done after some 23 year old software genius just broke all your software again with a new "feature" that you will never use and a new user interface that makes it harder to do the few things your really need to do.
After a day like that you just go home bursting with the joy of having a career like that.
Boy they must have indoctrinated that kid with some INSANE ideas.
Feminism is a war on normal women. It appears to be successful, because the methodology of the promotion plays on the natural tendency towards a variety of insecurity, which plays a role in preparing women to be ever on the alert to protect their small children--an exploitation of a quality that should be respected, not exploited.
Those men who imagine they are virtuous by reason of buying into the lies of Feminism, are terribly misguided.
What is going on out there in the Streets is NOT a good man with 3 boys and a deceased wife meeting a woman in a similar situation.
What is HAPPENING is 15 to 17 year olds having kids with a guy who is NO WAY going to stick around and then dating the next POS that comes around and there’s almost ZERO chance he’s gonna treat the kids right.
I’ve lived in the project for a short while.
The fake baby daddies treat the kids like animals.
Everyone doesn’t though. Some choose career over marriage and some chose to end their career. True though that some families combine that. I fly with many captains who are married with kids as well as CA’s.
“Women Don’t Need Men.”
Back in the 70’s I noticed that Dad’s were being removed from TV commercials as part of the family unit. Eventually it was the woman who ran the family from top to bottom. Not saying there is anything wrong with that. Just an observation on my part.
“True though that some families combine that.”
You’re right, it’s not either-or, but the question does tend to reveal which choice you should favor more heavily, or the priorities that you should set.
Yup. On her show Dr. Laura always tells women in that situation there should be NO men or dating till their kids turn 18. Statistically the replacement men in those relationships have a high risk of being abusers.
