@ver_nanaaa I’m not suggesting anyone be isolated, I’m talking about not dropping everything to fly away somewhere without the kids while your children are babies or toddlers. Why can’t friends and socializing be child friendly in those years?
@Aria_Babu Margaret Sanger promoted birth control long before the ‘50s and dreamed of a “magic pill” as early as 1914. She met with Gregory Pincus in 1951 to ask him to work on her vision.
My aunt has been married for 53 years to a man who has never eaten a salad, no vegetables except beans and corn, no seafood, no “ethnic” food, no onions or garlic, no condiments. Going out to eat with the family has always required negotiations about cuisine. No surprise, he’s had blood pressure issues for decades now and other problems related to his poor diet. And yet, she still loves him and would consider her marriage a happy one.
@deaflibertarian Ukrainians are fighting for their lives, their very existence. They’re going to use any tool at their disposal. It’s unreasonable to ask them not to.
@Zed_Oh_Six@ZitoSalena I paid cash for a number of cheap used cars that kept me mobile, employed, and socialized when I was young. What you consider a POS was more than sufficient for my needs because my generation wasn’t a bunch of whiny spoiled prima donnas.
