Women:

“Give us special privileges!”

“Give us our own spaces!”

“Shame men who won’t marry us when we are 40 and finally ready to settle down!”

“Make it so we can have kids at 50 years old because working for a boss in an office in my 20’s and 30’s is way more fulfilling than raising kids and having a husband!”

Society: “of course!”

Men:

“Can we just have our own spaces and not have our sons taught that they are all racist and sexual predators?”

Women: “NO!!”

50 year old women should not be having children and the medical field should refuse to provide assistance with getting them pregnant.

I find it infuriating that men cannot have spaces to ourselves. By the way, did you know that in countries like Greece a single woman can have a child through surrogacy but not a single man? For the record, I support banning everybody from surrogacy, but this just goes to show that single fatherhood is condemned while single motherhood is not only legal but encouraged.

Why can't men have spaces for themselves? Loads of men only clubs in the UK.

Good. Based UK.

Not so much Australia. I heard that the only place in Australia that is allowed to exclude women is a gay bar in Melbourne.

Single mum Elder spinster who gave birth for the first time at 50 says it was the ‘right’ time

  • Ex boyfriends dodge late-life catastrophe
  • Future relationship prospects evaporate
  • Severely diminished grandmother prospects
  • The era of the helicopter grand-mom

That poor child is condemned to feeding on leathery wine skins.

She'll be 70 when he kid is finally grown up.

[–]jet199 2 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 2 fun -  (5 children)

70 is the age my mother first got broody

[–]Rastafoo 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (4 children)

Broody?

[–]Musky 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (3 children)

Hahahahaa, I laughed at broody. It means "disposed to sit on eggs to hatch them."

[–]jet199 3 insightful - 3 fun3 insightful - 2 fun4 insightful - 3 fun -  (2 children)

She had me at 30 but was never keen on the idea of having kids until 40 years later.

[–]Rastafoo 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

Her loss!

[–]jet199 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

She didn't lose. We are the best kids to her because we weren't spoilt. Treat em mean keep em keen.

[–][deleted] 5 insightful - 1 fun5 insightful - 0 fun6 insightful - 1 fun -  (9 children)

Good for her. Kids gonna be fucked.

Me and my wife were literally just saying this as we read the headline.

[–][deleted] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (2 children)

People don’t have any sense any more. We Can’t tell right from wrong.

[–]Anman 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

People can. The resources are there. The ability to choose to do so is there. I do, you probably do.

Most people though are degenerates.

[–][deleted] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

ThAts a strong point

[–]jet199 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

Meh, not that long ago it was normal for people to lose their mothers young and no one cared about them.

[–]Musky 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

no one cared about them.

Who that old bitch in the photo?
Oh, that old whore was just my dead mum.
Why would you keep her picture‽

[–]RedEyedWarrior 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (2 children)

And her age doesn't help matters. I hope the child is able to find her father one day.

[–][deleted] 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

Exactly. But age does matter. Father missing is important. But it’s not normal to have a 60 year old mother.

[–]RedEyedWarrior 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Well said.

[–]sayssyn 4 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 0 fun5 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

Irresponsible. What if she dies and can’t raise the child.

[–]RedEyedWarrior 3 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 0 fun4 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

She's not used to dealing with the consequences, so clearly she never thought this through.

[–][deleted] 3 insightful - 3 fun3 insightful - 2 fun4 insightful - 3 fun -  (0 children)

Sweet lord, that poor child is fucked. What an unresponsible bitch.

[–]Smarterthanlastweek2 3 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 0 fun4 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

So that kid will never know her father, her grandparents, have any siblings. She'll have a mother whose body is rapidly deteriorating and who won't be able to do much active things with her. When she's graduating college she'll be tied down by a geriatric mother, who she'll need to find care for or give up her own new found freedom to care for herself, and have literally No One to guide her into adulthood.

Her mother is a fucking selfish CUNT and this isn't even the first time I've heard of this practice. Pray to god it doesn't turn into a thing.

I hope she at least got a ton of money.

[–]IkeConn 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (3 children)

I hope she didn't spawn a retard, autist, mongoloid, or a queer.

[–]RedEyedWarrior 3 insightful - 2 fun3 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 2 fun -  (1 child)

Statistically speaking, the older a woman is when she gives birth, the more likely that child will turn out retarded or autistic. Turning out gay would be a blessing so that the child won't give her grandchildren.

[–]jet199 3 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 0 fun4 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

No, older women have kids with chromosome issues like Downs syndrome but it's older men who have kids with genetic mutation issues like autism, schizophrenia, psychopathy, infertility, etc. This is because men remake their sperm constantly so the genetic errors build up over time while a woman is born with her eggs and doesn't recycle them.

[–]Musky 2 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

So say we all.

[–]Musky 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Well, I mean the kid wouldn't exist otherwise but it'd be more likely to be healthy if the mother was younger, besides the other concerns on this situation.

Ban IVF. A law should be passed that allows children conceived through IVF to sue their legal parents if their donor parents cannot be traced.

Disgusting.
