The growing selfishness of working women is an awful thing to witness.

It used to be that childhood was about taking and adulthood was about giving back and sacrificing.

Feminism has changed that and made many women, not all, even more self-centered.

It was not just the feminists. It was a whole generation that decided they never wanted to become adults.

"even more self-centered"


Ah, you're implying all women are naturally self-centered; the feminists are just MORE so.

I'm running into quite a few women who don't want a kid. Ever.

But I do know a number of women who are having babies now (28-35). Some are on their second husband when they have their first pregnancy.

The social order was disrupted by the anti-establishment types who now are the establishment.

And to hear the establishment tell it, we NEED illegal immigration to keep our population from falling. As if 50million abortions didn't factor into that.

There are many working mothers who are not like these narcissists. The women who agree to be profiled for articles such as these tend to be self-obsessed. Many women work part time without talking about how "bored" they'd be if they didn't work, and without demanding unreasonable concessions from their bosses. At least the companies mentioned in this article require women working part time to wait longer before they grab the brass ring! As a woman, I get sick when I read about firms that have two different tracks, where men have to work longer and harder just because they're men.
