Are men spoiled rotten?

Men in their 40s keep breaking up with me because they want to have a baby. How selfish.

    dna crying itself to sleep at night

    Just 'cuz these older guys are thinking they'll be able to find younger women to breed with, that doesn't mean they'll be successful. It just means that they're starting to realize that they might've started shooting blanks at the age of 35 and perhaps they should've considered the family way before then. ... oops.

    Pity these fellas (if you have the time). I do believe a lot of men in the u.s. need a change in their lifestyles, focusing more on things like accountability and responsibility and personal contribution to the world at large, and pretty-much not just wasting oxygen and buying gadgets like many of 'em are now.

    Younger women, unless they have severe father issues, prefer men their own age.

    And women in the u.s. are very fortunate 'cuz all we need to do is decide to go the sperm donor route to have a kid - if we never found that good, responsible, accountable fella to be a dad.
