Liar.

The info you’re talking about is definitely out there, and a lot of the time presented as the final word, but it turns out it’s not.

But whether or not she wants kids, and whether or not it’s a valid point - do you really think she doesn’t know that her fertility decreases with age? 99.9% of women making these comments aren’t concerned, they just want to taunt someone by telling them they might get ‘punished’ for their choices.

NB, the source of the statistics about fertility dropping in your late 20s is monstrously out of date: like, from the 16th-17th century out of date. The current reality is a drop in more like the mid-late 30s!

But do you really think women don’t know that? Do you really think these women are telling Maytonilla anything she doesn’t know? But for some reason, they feel the need to tell Mayotonilla she’ll regret not making the same choices as they did. I’m child free and have a career and I don’t feel any kind of need to tell…

Whatever makes you or them think I do not know that? Don’t you think a career woman in her 30s is knowledgable on the things she wants? This attitude is part of what bothers me. I don’t go around telling women who were teenage moms that they need to talk to their kids about contraception because their kids are more…

My two cents: being a 30 something woman with a career, money and no kids in the Mexican-American community is very hard. Most women my age have kids, some of them have teenagers, one has grandchildren. They can’t stop themselves from telling me that I’ll probably won’t be able to get pregnant and if I do my body…

The thing that always gets me about this ‘debate’ is the way that women are so patronised about it. There seems to be this assumption that women are walking around making decisions which go against their wishes, somehow not sentient, and then waking up at some point like “OMG I FORGOT TO HAVE KIDS!!!!”. At which point…

I feel like the definition for scarlet letter has expanded from adultery to anything a woman should be “shameful” for.

As humans live longer now than ever, makes sense to have children later in life. Sure more risks come with it, but having children is always risky. I'd rather 40 year olds having kids than 14 year olds.

“I don’t have one iota of sympathy for Akins’ plight. But I’m grateful he isn’t being accused of snatching an innocent woman off the street.”

“So ladies, let’s just think. Can we think of a single instance in which a man’s judgment was clouded by his hormones?” Fiorina said.

God’s kinda OK, but his fanboys can be serious assholes.

The people are fun to laugh at in this story but the fact there’s a weekend edition of BCO is undeniably proof God exists.

We could add to the 9/11 name scroll all of the innocent civilians killed in our little war against Iraq. A country who had nothing to do with 9/11.

Hey, you don’t know his life. Maybe he’s really, really, really fragile. Imagine the struggle to breathe when he tries to have sex with a 136 lb woman! Oh man, I’m feeling claustrophobic just thinking about it.

Bouquet Toss - “But how will you make it clear YOU made it and they didn’t?”

My husband is from India so we had a moderately traditional Indian wedding. While we hacked a lot of traditions for times sake (we cut our ceremony down from 8 hours to 2), the one thing we both adamantly refused to include was the time honored tradition of the brides family begging the groom to marry her.

There aren't that many genuises in real life either but they get disproportionate representation anyway, so why can't female scientists or politicians or sportswomen get the same treatment?

Given that movies with strong female characters do better at the box office than ones without, I think we can safely assume that supply isn't meeting demand here.
