  • Women are awakening from the "girl boss" mindset that modern-day feminism tricked them into believing. To my surprise, some people from the right are telling these women it's too late, which is the opposite of what we should be doing. Let's talk about it.

    Had my first baby at 27 and immediately felt the natural urge to put him above my career, even working from home with him a majority of his life. I’m due with my second just before I turn 30 and we’ve spent the last 2 years setting up our finances so I can stay home. I work in a high achieving industry and I know zero moms who are happy they are at work instead of being with their kids.

      Just curious, do you wish you didn’t work in a high achieving career then? I just graduated college and started at a high achieving job. It’s a blessing ofcourse financially and starting off, but I also want to structure my life in a way that in the future, I’m able to have time for family and not be so work dependent. It also worries me because even though I just started, I want my potential partner to make more than me and be the provider, but that means that many guys right now are not a compatible since many guys around my age don’t work such a well to do job, atleast right now.

      So true. I want people to understand that being a girl boss is just one type of way to be a woman, and it's not the only way. If you want to be a traditional housewife, go ahead as long as you weren't pressured to be so. Unfortunately the first boyfriend in the Business Inside article did pressure her to do housewife tasks that she didn't want to do and they even agreed on that before hand.

    As a single man in my late 30s, i saw SOOO many women that were both desperately clinging on to their feminist "i hate men" principles, yet also DESPERATELY scrambling against the ticking clock to build a family and find a husband IMMEDIATELY.
    Their desperation is SCARY to deal with because their life plans become 100% YOUR responsibility as a man, and theres this feeling that you wont even get the chance to just enjoy each other's presence before you become entrenched in the responsibility of marriage and kids

    • @ShaferHart
      @ShaferHart 2 місяці тому +22

      Your second paragraph is me in my early 30s. Unfortunately I had to stop dating women my age (single and without kids) because they become way too desperate when they suddenly realize time's not on their side anymore. It's not a stereotype, women are not good at hiding or dealing with that kind of primal desperation. However, I won't change my time line of getting to know someone just because they suddenly realized they didn't respect theirs. Society loves to shame men for dating "younger" but actually sometimes we simply don't want to "hold up" the 34 yo woman with no kids from finding a man that's as desperate as her to have a family. You don't get to put that pressure on me _on the first date_ after you spent more than 3 decades not caring about it.

I still can't believe I didn't wake up sooner: I would've had so many - and interesting - conversations with people, some of whom I felt the need to apologize to the last few years (I was passionate, yet infuriating). I received nothing but love, except for those who still believe this is the way to go. Those stopped talking to me, so I guess I still win.
    And part of this transformation was because of voices like yours, Brett. I guess all I'm saying is thank you.
    Best wishes from Argentina.

    I believe that people in general should not be so focused about what other people want them to do/think/say. Because its most of the time not what they really want and they will regret it. If you want to have kids, do it. Dont listen to people that say "but you have to have a career", when you dont want to it. Dont listen to people that say "but as a woman you have to have children to be happy", when you dont want to. I never did something that i did not want to, just because someone else said "but thats what you are supposed to do".
    I never wanted children ever (i had a relationship for 20 years and after that time he broke up with me because of another woman) and now i am 43 and very happy living on my own. I got a new job, bought my own house and i love my alone time. I am sooo glad that i never got a child because other people say that as a woman you should want to have one.

      This is exactly what I was going to write before I read your comment. :) A part of feminism is the freedom to choose how you want your life to be. There is nothing un-feminist about being a homemaker, neither as it is to choose a career over kids. As long as we are not surrendering to any trend-pressure, rather choosing what we truly want - I think we have cracked the code! 😊

    • @crimson1504

      Yup - the point of feminism is that you have the choice.
      My carreer fulfills me. I know this is what I'm meant to do. My mom quit her job to raise my siblings and I, and she made it known that she resented that choice. My man admires that my first love is work so I'm lucky I'm supported in following my own desires.
      It truly depends on the person. Maybe I will change in the future. That's the beauty of like - I get a choice.

Mom chose to settle down WHILE she was getting her first masters, and had my brother first before she graduated. Her and my father had the most beautiful 20 yrs together until cancer took her. She redpilled me and my brother, and this was WAY before that space even existed. She warned me to NEVER choose a "career woman", and to be careful with settling down as the courts are against me.

    I’m thankful for my Mom who told me as a teen that she regretted not being home with my brothers and I. That made such an impact on me, and I knew from that conversation that I would stay home with my children.
    My husband and I were the first to get married from our friends group (21). We had 4 children by the time we were 28. We couldn’t be happier with the decisions we made to marry and have children early, or to live a traditional lifestyle (my husband works, me at home raising and homeschooling our children). I have several friends from college who still aren’t married or at least decided to delay children and then it became harder to get pregnant, and they just don’t seem happy or fulfilled. I feel sad for them. But I remember conversations in college when I said I planned to be a stay at home, homeschooling mom, and my friends mocked me. I’m not really having the last laugh, because I genuinely feel bad for what they’re missing out on.
    As a side note, having children as young as we did, we will have an empty nest by 50, and can travel and do those things that won’t friends focused on in their 20’s and 30’s.

    The worst thing about this shift to feminism is that we've dismantled a lot of the ways that people meet and form bonds. As a single man I have no idea where to go to meet women other than bars and churches. Couples don't just form out of nothing. They begin with two single people meeting up and forming first a friendship then later love. We need to start creating the conditions under which relationships are formed and opening up ways to socialize would be a very good start.

Have been damaged goods just to be a piece of a pedestal that they stand on as they put down all men. And never take accountability. There are so many men out there that suffer and are really trying to find love. When women are really out there, just to get. They're rocks off and a bunch of free meals or just to get a bunch of free meals and fake that they want the guy. Then like this woman ruined her marriage and a guy's life just to divorce him and break His heart and now she wants the exact same thing she had that she threw in the trash. Women don't realize, but they're p*ss Poor decisions affect the men in their life as well, And as men hold each other to a higher standard.

The women who reach this revelation are starting over from square one, and that's a hard thing to do. I hope they find happiness with marriage and a family but, if not, I hope they will at least find peace within themselves.

    I was married at 20 to the love of my life and I just turned 40. We’ll be celebrating 20 years this summer. We waited a few years to have kids, but I was still in my mid-twenties when we started our family. Best decision ever! Of course we had to work through a lot of immaturity and baggage (we both came from broken/divorced households.) But by the grace and help of the Lord and a little bit of grit, we pulled through and it’s been a wonderful adventure. I love him more now than in the beginning. We’re still young, our kids are in high school and junior high and there’s so much more to look forward to! If you can help it, start your family and essentially your life, as soon as you can. Don’t rush, don’t make foolish decisions in urgency or fear, but don’t resist the invitation to life and love and family when presented to you in exchange for the false success of a career that will only last so long. Family lasts forever ❤

      It's lovely that your marriage lasted 20 years, but how many others didn't? Marriage at a young age is one of the strongest predictors of divorce. There is just so much maturing and identity-creation that occurs in your 20's, and the children of "older" parents tend to have better behavioral and academic outcomes.
      Your story is wonderful and inspiring, but that doesn't mean advice like "start your family and essentially your life, as soon as you can" is good advice.
      It's ok to focus first on education/personal growth, career, travel, friendships, and finances. Those things add a richness to your life. You'll have experiences, wisdom, empathy, and more perspectives to offer your husband and kids. Just my two cents.

    • @simplyrelevantlife8362
      @simplyrelevantlife8362 4 місяці тому +4

      @mleobviously I understand what you’re saying :) But if you continue to read what I wrote in it’s entirety, you’d see that I also added to not rush or make foolish decisions out of fear, but to also not resist the offer when and if it comes, in exchange for a career. In other words, if life and love are presented to you and it’s the right thing, don’t put it off because you think a career will be more important than starting a family. Being married as young as I was, I can absolutely see both sides of the benefit to getting married young and also the benefit to waiting until you’re older if that’s what you have to do. I changed tremendously in my 20’s and felt more like an adult in my 30’s. But the opportunity to start my life young was presented to me and it was a very good decision that I didn’t push away because I thought a career would be more fulfilling than starting a family. And I certainly didn’t look to others to validate what they viewed as a successful life.
      And my husband and I are truly a miracle. With us both coming from divorced parents, and my side actually being a generational pattern of divorce (grandparents as well).
      Young people don’t have to fall into statistics just because “society” states that getting married young has a higher rate of failure. We made a decision that went against the grain with great success (and a lot of hard work and grit) and I want to encourage those who would actually be encouraged by it. If it doesn’t encourage you or speak to you, then that’s ok 😊
      I joined the conversation with some experience under my belt of making choices that essentially go against the narrative of the feminist movement.

      Good. You're on a good track. Having a career isn't a bad thing. The bad thing is when women put their career and "sexual liberation" as their top priorities and supress their natural inclination for having a man and children because of feminism illusion, which is programmed into dormant low IQ women at university and by MSM. They made it hard for men to commit to good women because many of them are chameleons. We're now very hesitant about women.
      But I'm glad you kept your brain clean. And keep your legs closed for your husband only and no one else; your value will be kept that way. Chastity and peace are very important to men, as ambition and ability to provide are very important to women.

For every woman that I know that now is unhappy in her 30s due to choosing a career pursuit, I know 2 that are frustrated cause they chose family over career and now close to their 40s they feel that sure they have children but they feel they have achieved nothing in life. And for every man that is unhappy in his 40s for choosing staying in work until 9PM over seeing his children I know of 2 unhappy cause they were not focused enough on choosing the right professional path.
      Being an adult is a hard shit filled of "hindsight is 20/20¨ situations. Brett describes it as if it was black or white. Meanwhile, people can be extremely unhappy regardless of the choices earlier in life. The thing is that it is way more nuanced than that and looking at the nuclear family model with a rose-tinted glasses is as foolish as trying to be a strong independent woman no matter what.

    I'm glad that this wave of realization is coming because it's been a near-constant struggle for me. I'm 24 and married but I don't have kids yet (that's a story for another day). Anytime I talk about having kids near a feminist they use their classic lines of: 'Oh, but you're so young,' or 'You have plenty of time,' or 'Why would you want to do that to yourself; pregnancy can ruin your body,' and more. I have friends and family who complain to me SO much about their dating life but constantly question mine. Very recently, my friend had gone through a break-up and her response was to make a social media post about how a 'real man' would treat her; after I'd told her to stop focusing on her ideal future (because it's failed consistently) and work with what you have in the moment. Now, this woman is very successful in her career but she is always complaining about how she can't find 'Mr. Right.' The feminist ideology is so self-centered and self-defeating because they are busy pursuing what 'others' believe they should do with their life. but those 'others' barely like what THEY are doing.

      And yet I'd still happily talk to other women about them having children. It's not my preferred topic, that I say, but I'd never tell another woman that what SHE wants in HER life is wrong or give her the feeling it is. Because that's what feminism should be about. Living your life the way you want to live it and not how others want it, which in the end is exactly what those proclaimed "feminists" are doing.
      One of my best friends just had a baby and I love their little squishy baby girl and I am happy for them, because they are happier than ever. So please, from a feminist: The moment you feel is right for you to have a child, is the moment to have a child. No matter how old you are. And pregnancy won't ruin your body. It will eventually show the beauty of giving life to a new human being and that's nothing anyone should ever trash talk about.

Women, if you find a good man in your 20’s hold on to him tight, because there isn’t an endless supply of them and loneliness is painful, no matter how many designer handbags you own.

      And having "high standards" for how you are treated is actually just having "standards." Disrespect or dismissiveness or control or "well he's only a LITTLE misogynistic and it's only sometimes" isn't acceptable. You're worth more than that. Men get called "good men" all the time just because they hold down a job and aren't violent degenerates. But do they treat you as an equal human being? If yes, THEN they're a good man, and those exist! Heck, even my sister is married to a lovely one =)

    I so vividly remember being a senior in college and feeling so lost, and a little depressed honestly because I could not figure out what career I really wanted. Everything I wanted to do just didn’t feel like it was enough purpose for me and I had this false notion that my career was going to give me all of my purpose in life. My faith really got me through it, and I did a little better once I was married, but immediately when I was pregnant,those feelings were gone and they never returned. What I felt as this hole or something missing was actually just me ignoring a totally good and natural want to start a family 🤷🏻‍♀️

      It's just being a boss of their life, which rings hollow for men who will literally be living on the streets if they don't do that. Yeah you take care of yourself, so what? So many narratives around feminism really do have a childish feel, just like the beginnings of feminism had, and smart women felt that was very patronizing. I think it was. Things were on the upswing, but then like everything else, our culture totally regressed and now we freely pander and condescend. We almost have to now, it's demanded as such. It's so pathetic that I can never actually do it, because I sincerely expect them to be offended by such things. Safe to say most won't be offended these days, like I said they expect it, but it's just wrong. They're actually screwing up their goal of real equality when it's possible, I'm the one holding the line.

      Give every guy interested an opportunity, but date with a purpose. Date with the question in your mind of "Will this man be a good father? Did he have a good example growing up?". If you ever think, "No." Break up immediately. Do not waste a second with someone who you're not on the same page philosophy wise with money (you don't have to be at this same place financially, but your goals must align), life goals, and religion (if that is something that would be important to you). If you do this, you will waste far less time than these women realizing when they are 30 what they truly want. At 30, you're out of time. You've collected too much damage and you're asking too much of men to invest the time.
      People will tell you it's hard out here in the dating scene, but these are people who are dating without a purpose so prone to collect serious damage.

Of course go at your own pace, don't be pressured into doing things too quickly if you'd be uncomfortable, but it's important that you actually do "go", you know? Dating is an investment. Of the potential people, see which romantic interests would be the best for a family setting. You'll be fine, and your work will pay off in the end when you have a whole family who loves you.

      Corporations profit from women joining the workforce in droves because it increases the demand for jobs, gives employers bargaining power, and increases the tax base.
      Academia profits from women by selling them junk degrees in "gender studies" and "critical race theory".
      Banks profit from women by giving them college loans (for junk degrees) which they'll be paying interest on over decades, negatively impacting their buying power.

      @@Jessibestie-tb9kw there are predatory guys who go for all ages, and good guys too. Many men's first instinct is sex, and you tell the good ones from the bad by their attitude - good will be happy when you get pregnant, bad will leave.
      One could even argue that the men who go for older single women are more predatory. Those are the women who have less going for them. They aren't fertile, they generally can't perform familial actions and tasks such as cooking, a life of working has soured their outlooks, and they don't have a long future to improve these facts. They're desperate and lonely, and are less likely to get pregnant. Predatory men see that, and use them as consequence free sex dolls that will almost just roll over and accept it when they're discarded.

I graduated (on time) and I have my license, which I’m so grateful to have, but I’m glad I had my first when I did.

      My husband and I laugh so hard every time she catches us off-guard.😂

      Of course that plan requires a spouse that brings in enough to support the household alone.

    i'm 25 with two kiddos and pregnant with my third. i had my son right before i turned 21 and i'm grateful i didn't have the chance to even think about being a "boss babe" lol. my husband is my BEST friend and i'm so blessed!!! ❤ being a stay at home mom is challenging in ways like anything, but it's AMAZING! i feel so sad for my friends who want this life but can't find the right person to start that life with.

      Some of the best guys i know are single and most men i talk to actually prefer traditional values. They just don't vocalize it because of all the shit they get these days. If your friends make it known that they want a traditional relationship then I'm sure they'll be hitched in no time. Thank you so much for sharing btw!! These stories are so heartwarming and beautiful :)

    thing is, not every women was made to be a mother and submissive, and not every woman was made to be a girlboss, problem is we have confused people on both sides trying to figure out who they are. its ok if you are either one, just make sure its what you really want and not what social media tells you to be ❤

      That is what I am saying! You should do what truly fulfills you, and not listen to social media ect. because they don't care about you and you are the only person who knows what you want

      You're inherently wrong, just purely biologically speaking. Women just like to think this way because they think being submissive is a bad for some reason.

      @@Yoroiful no, you are wrong, biology has nothing to do with this, people can genuinely think outside the norm you know? have you ever gone outside and met real women from different backgrounds and personalities?
