Yes, living on your own is hard. Humans are not designed to be high-agency individuals all the time. We need a group and people to belong to. The strong, independent girlboss lifestyle will never make you happy.

So as a woman who has now seen the light, what are you going to do about it? Will you tell the youngsters to not waste time partying? To not fuck guys they barely know while also going on traditional dates with the romantics? To prioritize building a good relationship early on so they don't end up in your shoes, desperate and alone?

Of course not. Let's just keep encouraging girls to act like fucktoys until no man with an ounce of self-worth would ever want them in a serious relationship. Then when they get older, they can complain about how shallow men are, and eventually die confused and alone, never knowing where they went wrong.

This is the internet. I can say whatever I want.

That cuts both ways, sweaty.

I absolutely love how many of these "strong, independent women" (btw @polishknight - I'm going to do a quick review of the flair guide and maybe reflair to that one depending on what each says) realize that working like a man actually sucks. What's even sadder is that most of them don't even work as hard. Yes, I've known a few who do, but they're the exceptions and not the norm. Yet at 35, which is way too old for a woman to say "I'm ready to start a family" but still young enough that she's not even halfway to retirement yet, she's already sick of working.

LMAO, when I was 36, I got into what was a brand new trade and career for me. It was my second career change, and I was a year older than her and just starting back out. Yes, I'm sick of working too at 46 now, but I've been doing shit-tons of overtime for the past decade. I could easily do 40 hour weeks until my mid-50s or early 60s. I'm mostly just sick of 50, 60+ hour weeks.

So when I hear a 35 year old, who probably only has only ever worked 40 hours per week, and most likely in an air conditioned office environment, whining like she is in the video, allow me a little "too fucking bad, sweaty! this is what your sisterhood fought so hard for! NOW GET BACK TO WORK!"
