You can't win either way because you're too old to have kids, and couldn't be happy in a marriage.
Women only complain about the system when the system rejects them and spits them out. The attention they used to get evaporates, and suddenly everything is so unfair and it's time to play victim.
Selfish and useless. Women have literally two jobs in life. The same two jobs they have had for all of recorded history. The same two jobs that women universally rate themselves by, regardless of nation or culture.
You "appear" selfish because you are acting like a Boomer. Everything is all about you, your happiness, your career accomplishments. You're about to find out how little anyone else cares.
He didn't go far enough. Your votes shouldn't count at all.
Yeah, if you let your wife buy everything she tells you she "needs".

Issues with archive.ph so giving some other reading options. There's a neat article following this I've marked as part 2 which is fine under archive.ph. I cannot post this to reddit but I welcome someone else doing so if they desire.

Every time I read one of these posts I hear “my body, my choice” blaring in the background. If women want total authority over whether children are born or not, then they need to accept the corresponding responsibility for their reproductive choices.
I know, I know. My soggy knees and tools of the patriarchy…..

Lets hope she sticks to her choices. You go gurl. Don't reproduce, please don't reproduce. Feminism, stops feminists reproducing as much as real women. Its a pain to men but its good for mankind in the long run.

The "Abusive partner" said she was terrorising him and she admits that he genuinely felt that. So, she denied his lived experience and turned the blame round on him victim shaming and hiding her guilt.
Abuse these days is anything that makes you unhappy. So we are all abused and abusers as no human can ever make another happy all the time without denying themself. The feminists have ruined the whole concept of abuse -seriously knocking your innocent and defenceless wife about was where it started and that was a good thing to condemn. Now it is anything she wants it to be. Well what is good for the goose is good for the gander madam. You are an abuser too, so go hang your head in shame.
The article says "As a result, Kendrick won't even consider 'getting involved with a man' - not even kissing or having 'a real conversation' - unless they're 'in or have been in therapy'. Amen to that." Amen in deed. At least it will only be men with mental problems that "abuse" her from now on. And really she should have seen the red flags -they guy was in therapy after all. Hardly a balanced guy...

I have a solution for AK - just shut up and do your job.
I choose to not do lots of things, but I dont harp on about them.
Women like AK are always harping on about how bad they feel because they don't conform to 'social pressures'. This is revealing. It reveals that she (and women like her) are suffering a major case of main character syndrome. She believes that society is disapproving, which would mean that we are paying attention to her and 'her choices'. (btw, when a woman says 'her choices' she means her failures, but thats a topic for another day).
The main character syndrome thing is a mental disorder these days. The truth is that I don't disaprove of AK's 'choices' because I don't know or care who she is. I can't name any of her films, and when I see her picture, I confuse her with that other one that looks like her. I confuse her with other actresses, because they are interchangeable.
Women like her are always griping about how they feel the weight of disapproval from society blah blah blah. the truth is that nobody notices or cares what she does.
Another point - she says 'I won't date men that dont XYZ'
this is a classic defence mechanism - she is telling the world that SHE has chosen some criteria that dramatically reduces her pool. the truth is that very few men want a woman that doesn't want to reproduce.
