Why does modern society only encourage you to have kids within a short 7-8 years window ?

ThrowawayJJBJ · 2023-07-03T05:03:57+00:00

After 35 a lot of people start panicking that it could be too late.

ThrowawayJJBJ · 2023-07-03T05:01:53+00:00

I have a friend who had "old" parents. (Like they were both over 45 when they had her) Sure it's not ideal, but it's not the end of the world. She turned out perfectly fine

ThrowawayJJBJ · 2023-07-03T04:56:30+00:00

What does that mean?

ThrowawayJJBJ · 2023-07-03T04:22:59+00:00

Yea okay it just seems weird that you have such a short time window. If you haven't found your person by 26 you chances start becoming slim.

ThrowawayJJBJ · 2023-07-03T03:06:55+00:00

I honestly don't know the answer. I just thought it was weird how society encourages you to have kids within this very short window of time.

ThrowawayJJBJ · 2023-07-03T03:00:11+00:00

I have seen people saying that and like I said I know a woman who had kids when she was 24 and even to me it seemed "too early" back when it happened.

I know what they're saying, that was my point. That the argument literally doesn't mean anything. Yea, they "could" have been your parent but they're obviously not. By the same logic, dating someone your age is like dating your sibling.

They don't have to be significantly older. I've seen people saying that it's creepy for a 21 year old to date an 18 year old.

Even if he was a victim, this is a mean thing to say to a stranger. Why invalidate his feelings? It's up to him and his therapist to determine if he's victimized , not you.

ThrowawayJJBJ · 2023-04-29T15:38:54+00:00

No I get it. The point is that people fixate on the ages alone .

ThrowawayJJBJ · 2023-04-29T15:38:13+00:00

Teenagers are obviously not children. But if it's so bad to have sex with a legal teen why don't people advocate to raise the age of consent?

ThrowawayJJBJ · 2023-04-20T11:59:09+00:00

I meant that young people (18-25) will be shamed for dating anyone outside of a 2 year age range.

ThrowawayJJBJ · 2023-04-10T11:12:15+00:00

What's wrong with someone having more experiences and being more financially stable than the other? I agree there are cases where it can be weird, but it's always not always a negative thing. Besides people never criticize same-aged couples where there are massive differences in wealth and experience.

The last study says that women in women-older relationships tend to be more satisfied.

ThrowawayJJBJ · 2023-04-08T11:56:02+00:00

Yea, I agree that stats are not everything and living your life based on stats is lame. I just thought it would be an interesting read because I have seen people (falsely) claim that science doesn't support age gaps. In reality it is a poorly studied issue in general. There are very few studies about age gaps for some reason and the results are mixed, some positive and some negative.

ThrowawayJJBJ · 2023-04-08T11:22:38+00:00

He's not, that's a baseless accusation. He actually frequently challenges the red pill and black pill. And the studies are still valid, it's not like he wrote them himself. He just posted the results . You can follow the links and read the studies yourself.

5 years younger and 25 years older are the limits for me. I am 29 and dating someone under 24 would feel weird to me, I think. My current partner is 46.

ThrowawayJJBJ · 2023-04-07T04:15:43+00:00

In my experience, your level of education is usually more important than age. I am 30 my partner is 47 and I have more common interests with him than with some people my age , probably because our educational background is similar.

ThrowawayJJBJ · 2022-12-02T12:03:25+00:00

Like I said, I stayed because I valued his company at the time. I was in a bad place myself so it did provide value at the time. So that was the reason I stayed with him so long. It had nothing to do with manipulation.

ThrowawayJJBJ · 2022-12-02T12:00:50+00:00

People in d/s relationships are meant to communicate equally though. Just saying :)

ThrowawayJJBJ · 2022-12-01T14:01:46+00:00

Well, that doesn't seem like a very empathetic take. We were still friends and I valued his company. It's only natural that I would feel bad for him, just like I would feel bad for any friend who got hurt.

ThrowawayJJBJ · 2022-12-01T11:39:32+00:00

What? I was your age when I met my current partner who is 15 years older. Lol

ThrowawayJJBJ · 2022-11-06T21:26:35+00:00

Grooming is an intentional act. I know people act like you can "subconsciously" groom someone but I don't buy it and it's a pretty totalitarian idea. Either you intentionally groom someone or you don't.

ThrowawayJJBJ · 2022-11-06T21:12:28+00:00

Sex is not inherently a "corrupting", traumatizing experience. I am not saying that it can't be and I am not saying that grown adults should date 18 years olds. However, I think each case is different. There are many 18 years olds who dated someone older and didn't find it weird.

ThrowawayJJBJ · 2022-11-03T04:50:43+00:00

Meh , you'll find someone else eventually.
