Feminism has left middle-aged women like me single, childless and depressed

He's a lot like me. We both got burned when we were married, and now that we're both divorced we "don't want to touch the stove for fear of getting burned again," sort to speak. Our spouses, looking back, were not very kind to us. I know not every lady is like that, but going back to the stove analogy......

We also are very uncomfortable developing a romantic attachment to a lady because we don't really know how to behave or interact. So we think, "better safe than sorry."

No offense, cuz there are plenty of wonderful ladies out there, but neither of us have encountered any as of late that we would feel comfortable being open with. I'd rather we'd just be friends.

I didn’t have my old children mainly due to medical problems back then but ended up raising my step- granddaughters (two still here with me). God found a use for me after all!

Huge damage, well maybe not to sales of SSRIs, boxed wine, and cat products.

Nice find.

Pretty much. You know what though, at least I have quiet evenings. I prefer that. Helps me keep my sanity.

I believe they fight so hard for abortion because they have already had an multiple abortions. And to admit that a fetus is a baby is to admit they murdered their own baby babies.

Slight correction.

Misogynist Females loudly proclaim the evil flaws in males, and in more couched terms, reject the elemental tenets of being a female, while trying not to reveal that they hate women, and thus, themselves. Shallow, angry, and internally repulsive.

Might be useful to also throw in the word "misandrist" occasionally.

Apparently a member of the "horsey set."

And by that, I don't mean "an equestrian."

I think you are right. There are women who dislike men.

As you can guess, I was concentrating on women who hate that they are women, but there is that component.

Ugh. It is rather disconcerting to contemplate women who not only hate themselves because they were born female, but also at the same time hate men.

You know who is a PRIME example of that?

Hillary Clinton.

And you can’t find bitter married or divorced women (or men?

Statistically, men are better off emotionally if they are married (or maybe men are married if they are better off emotionally?), but women report being happier and less depressed if they are not.

How many people wouldn’t be here if an aborted baby had been allowed to live before them?

The number of young women and couples who would have stopped popping out babies sooner if they’d brought those aborted to term.
