Every Monday I meet with a group of female friends in a London restaurant. We sit at a table near the window and discuss our lives.
We have many things in common. We are all in our mid-50s and highly educated career women. But there is a vacuum in our lives. We are all single and childless.
I increasingly feel, as do many of my intimates, that feminism has failed our generation. I grew up with its beliefs. No, strike that. I was force-fed them.
By the age of 13, Christmas presents from my Women's Lib aunt were books by Gloria Steinem and Simone de Beauvoir, considered the mother of modern feminism. (My aunt was one of those militants who had famously disrupted the 1970 Miss World contest).
My peers and I watched Mary Poppins, idolising the determinedly single nanny (never noticing the occasional sadness behind her eyes), and sympathising with suffragette Mrs Banks, while wondering why she didn't leave her dullard of a husband.

My 25 year old son tells his mother and I about how screwed up in the head are so many young women today. Many of them are on some sort of anxiety medication. Many continue to live at home with their parents and really do not have an interest in real relationship with a man. Most of these young women went to college and graduated too.
The young woman that are not screwed up in the head are almost all taken. They already have a boyfriend/fiance/married. They could probably have many boyfriends IF they wanted because they actually have a great personality. They are not basket cases.
“... not their true inner desire for family.”
The good news is that most of them will die childless hopefully taking their misguided viewpoints to their endless dirt nap.
These female Incels usually have NPD and few if any friends.
This is the result of the curse given to Eve.
For the vast majority of people the 2 most important things we do is to make children and fertilizer for the plants.
Lefties having been crying wolf about overpopulation for over a hundred years.
To keep the black population down, they do abortions.
To keep the rest down, they keep them single and gay.
That's an important omission.
Hypergamy at work. She came from a toff family with an upper-class outlook, so added to her aggressive feminism, was the need to find a partner of equal or higher class and intellectual status - and the pool of available partners was always extremely small.
Feminism didn’t fail her; she is just realizing that the end goals aren’t what she thought. Any sane person could have told her that years ago, but it’s not likely that she would listen.
She seems nice.
I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO SYMPATHY.
There is a WIDE VARIETY of things a person can do that are interesting. But you have to FIND such things.
Due to medical reasons I had no control over—I also am childless.
I am single by my own volition. Had a wonderful man in my life many years ago & haven’t found even a pale comparison.
I am WAAAAAAAY over 50. MOVED 2 times since age 50 & did massive sweat equity in a foreclosure property & big improvements in a new property. EVERYTHING I OWN IS PAID FOR.
Did NOT spend my time whining with a glass of wine constantly in hand with only other whiners. DO NOT EVEN DRINK.
IF all these women can see/say is “WHY ME?”——they have to realize they deliberately took every single step it took to get them where they are. The mirror tells the truth.
DID I do some unconventional things??? SURE-— bought a chain saw to clean up the foreclosure property. NEVER HAD EVEN HELD ONE PRIOR....used up 7 chains (NOW TROPHIES) & am on gallon #13 of chain oil. BUT made enough profit to buy 3rd property for CASH.
But there is no time for whining. WEEDS are not listening.
Horses can tell TIME & they KNOW when it is feeding time. DOG can count-— knows that 1 is not 3 bone treats—2 is not not-—BUT 3 is. SMART CRITTERS.
Property & livestock to care for & maintain.
Have a LARGE cadre of friends I can call on if I need them...but am doing fine with what I have.
I try to NOT abuse the help they willing give me.
LEARNED THIS A LONG TIME AGO:
“THE ONLY DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A RUT & A GRAVE IS THE DEPTH”
The got exactly what they said they wanted.
I think encouraging young girls to screw early and as often as possible everything that walks without consequences (teasing and calling them old fashioned or worse if they were to say that’s immoral behavior), encouraging killing anything that “accidentally” grows inside you, would have led to a most happy and rewarding/fulfilling life. Don’t tell me that’s not right.
The first wave....the right to vote, equality in the workplace and for school admissions was just fine. I think almost everybody would support all of the above. But of course, they just couldn’t leave it at that. They had to then move on to denigrating stay at home moms, getting married - especially when younger and when they were most wanted - and into a blinding hatred of men. That stuff is all toxic....toxic to society and everybody else around them and ultimately toxic to them too.
Western women have by far the worst affliction with this mind virus. I guess its going to take a generation or two of feminazis dying off after spending a lifetime alone with their cats and boxed wine before the pendulum will swing back to a balanced, healthy outlook in which people accept that men and women are different - which is OK - but they’re partners and are by far the happiest and healthiest when they are together.
Rush said it best, “Feminism was created so as to give unattractive women easier access to the mainstream of society.”
Is her sister named Citronella?
Maybe she might consider changing her name as well.
Schadenfreude alert!
I want them to feel pain. Lots and lots of pain. The type of pain that is scheduled for all those leftwing pukes in the Puppet Biden regime and MSNBC. /spit
That gaping hole in her soul can only be filled by Jesus.
