  Interesting to hear Louise say that the washing machine did more to free women than other things; my grandmother told me that the happiest day of her life was getting her first washing machine because she no longer had to spend an entire day scrubbing my grandfather&apos;s filthy overalls on a washboard. I believe that the traditional wash day routine was the equivalent of running a half marathon.

  I was called a “prude” by girls in high school and college and when I met my husband (he was 25 and I was 20) he was soooooo relieved to meet a “prude.”

  When she said that the bit about how the only people who have truly benefited from the sexual revolution were high status men i could have cried.....it&apos;s so true and it&apos;s so appalling to me that people don&apos;t see that

  As far as women being taken advantage of because they are usually more naturally agreeable. It gives me a &nbsp;new view of the tradition of a father giving away the bride (walking her down the isle). The father was not meant to be her owner but instead, her body guard and protector. Not because she is less of person but because she naturally wants to see other people happy from her &nbsp;agreeable nature. So having a more disagreeable father watching for the guys who would take advantage of her is incredibly helpful. &nbsp;So sad when we missread tradition.

  As a man. I wish to acknowledge that there may be sanity in our future, the more this level of wisdom is perpetuated.<br>Thank you both.

  As a 25 yo male who’d given up a lot of hope on getting married or having kids, this gave me some of it back

  My baby was the first I held.. at 32. My husband grew up with lots of family, babysat nephews and nieces. I felt so embarrassed he was the one showing me how to do basic baby care. <br><br>When I became a mom immediately understood that we shouldn&apos;t wait till &nbsp;&apos;last minute &apos; to have a baby. I remember sleepless nights not being a big deal on my body/mind in my early 20s and thought THIS is what I was supposed to be doing with that ability,. Also, so many of my friends have no chance of becoming mothers due to infertility issues and now regret putting their careers first or having abortions during their 20s. <br><br>We were sold a narrative that&apos;s not true and now paying for it. We cannot just wait till later

  I was one of those women who was prepared to give up motherhood for the benefit of the world. Luckily at 35 I fell pregnant against all odds and within a stable relationship and he was so delighted we changed our minds. Having children has been the most fulfilling experience of our lives. We had wonderful lives before children but it is incomparable to being a family.

  Im a 25 year old man and I can’t describe how thankful I am with these wise women who are not afraid sharing the real truth. You’re helping both us men and women who are just trying to live a simple life, to have a family or just a stable relationship. Is so difficult with these crazy modern society rules and high expectations. From my side I’ll try to be the best men I can. Thank you!

  She&apos;s completely correct. I spent the last ten years going to school to persue a career, but now I&apos;m done with college and I just want to have babies. What a weird time to be alive.
