I’m 20, female, and living in Los Angeles. The article certainly rang true with me as a woman as well. 50 years ago I’d probably have a husband, a promising career sitting around the house, and a few children. What a scary thought as I can’t even fathom what it would be like having a kid, let alone the fact that I have no desire whatsoever for one. And neither can any of my female friends. I think the fact that people are waiting so long to have children or opting not to have any at all is not just a product of men, as I too sometimes feel like “a kid in a candy store”. I wonder if this article would apply to middle America? Great article!
