  1. The more independance that women get the more indecisive that they become.

    Most women can’t even work out if they want children – by the time that their fertility has become a problem!

    All that they’ve achieved from having babies on their ‘bucket list’ is creating an entire medical industry obligated to ‘assist’ them with what should naturally be done by themselves – far sooner!

    Women are the most protected species in the West and have been for quite sometime – anyone would think that the individual women is ignorant and can’t work out how to progress at all!

    • Wow Harriet. Your truly odd comment really made me glad I chose the “Are you serious?” female version of the meme face for my avatar on this blog site. For starters:

      “The more independence that women get the more indecisive they become”.

      Lol. I just imagined all these women running around in different directions calling OMG! I’m so independent I have no idea where I’m going and what I want. OMG!”

      Secondly:

      “Most women can’t even work out if they want children”. Oh, I think they can. The desire to be a mother can be quite strong in some women and is abundantly clear to their friends, family, colleagues and partner. Other women carefully consider whether motherhood is right for them and consider the life and development of the children they would bring to the world. (I’m witnessing one women go through this very process at the moment)and then there’s those of us who as much as they like children know that motherhood isn’t for them and the desire to procreate just isn’t there. I think we can work it out Harriet. Give us some credit eh?

  2. I think Harriet you will find that most women who want to have children, KNOW they want to have children in their 20s. The question that is harder to answer is the TIMING of having children and HOW going to fit in with their lives.

    Career is important to many women now. Travel is important too. A lot of decisions are based around money too, living on one income is harder than it used to be. Knowing you want children is one thing. Trying to fit it into your life is quite another.

  3. Now try the same with “men” in place of women. It’s not particularly flattering either: e.g.

    “Men want to be women”
    “Men should weep”
    “Men need women”
    “Men want what the can’t have”

    • Yes, this is totally every bit as bad as the results about how women shouldn’t have any rights, should be slaves (actual reality for women – mostly not white – in some countries), and need to “know their place”.

      Yes, you’re right, it’s not very ‘flattering’ that one of the results is “men want to be women”… oh. Why, exactly, is that not flattering, exactly? Is it maybe because being a woman is considered ‘lesser’ than being a man?

      FFS.
