re: The goal of many Gen Z and millennial women is now to be a DINK—dual income and no kids

And yet American women have never been less happier, less fulfilled, more lonely, more riddled with psychological issues, more depressed, etc than they are right now. Replacing loving and natural relationships with a “ I am woman hear me roar” box of empty platitudes, a team of therapists and 3 antidepressants is not really a good game plan for society or a woman’s sense of purpose.

They invented ludes for depressed housewives back in the 50s and 60s. Go watch Mad Men, all of the wives looked thrilled and fulfilled when their husbands were out drinking. Must’ve been great to be trapped in crappy marriages and told from a young age that you need to stay home raise kids and do nothing else. Im sure if they said they were unhappy their husbands would’ve been real sympathetic.
