Marriage and building a family is the ultimate low time preference approach to the gift of life. Our culture has been focused on what young women give up by starting a family without acknowledging what they gain. It’s not an accident that older childless single women collect cats (and other pets).
When you get older the frivolities of youth are not that appealing. For most people, they aren’t even available when they get older. She’s not going to have young sexually appealing young men sliding into her DMs forever.
I’m sad for Aella and all young women who have been confused on this point. I hope they all find a truly fulfilling path some day, but I wouldn’t hold my breath waiting for it.
