Why would anybody want to start a family if you’re over 50?
Families look different. Maybe doing child fostering or being extended family to relatives would bring her joy but having a new born baby at 50 sounds hellish. Lots of people find joy in being a step parent.
1. I think it’s great that we’re pointing out and discussing the loneliness single older people face, particularly women due to many men’s desires to have nothing to do with them (quite hatefully I might add) 2. I think this is good to talk about some of the unintended consequences of feminism. I think some strands of the movement have inadvertently downplayed or devalued roles such as motherhood or partnership 3. That being said - the article heavily generalized the experiences of a specific group and attempts to apply these experiences as a critique of feminism as a whole 4. The author draws a causal link between feminism and personal outcomes (being single and childless). This is an oversimplification. Relationships and family structures are influenced by a very wide array of factors including personal choice (the author had an affair with a married man and an abortion), economic conditions, and societal changes 5. The author also notably did not acknowledge the positive impacts of being able to have choices (nor did she acknowledge maybe she made some bad decisions - see my comment about her affair and abortion above) and mostly relies on anecdotal evidence TLDR - really good to talk about loneliness, lack of resources for seniors (particularly women), and the unintended consequences of feminism. But I couldn’t take much more from it than that because it was anecdotal and lacked any nuance

I'm happy, strong and thriving. The third law of thermodynamics has never failed me and my generation.
Feminism was about equal rights now it is about feminazism. In addition with all these dating apps and spurt of ONS and loosely defined relationships why would any man want to settle down. You don’t want to come home to BS.
