Ya'll think a lot of women today will end up single at an old age?

[semicko82]

I don't really have a dog in this fight or the gender war nonsense. Both genders need each other. Every woman wants to be surrounded by their loving husband, kids and grandkids in old age. If they say otherwise, THEY ARE LYING. My grandmom died a happy woman. Even though my grandpop died a few years before her, he left her with a paid off house, a fat bank account, 7 kids and 20 odd grandkids. She was loved and cared for until the end. Now contrast that with two of my mom's friends who unfortunately died in their houses alone. One of them was like an auntie to me so I was a lil fukked up that she died all alone in her house like that. The other one was in her 40s but, unmarried and Covid took her. That's gonna be the future for alot of people in our generation. Growing old, being lonely and eventually dead in their house for days until someone comes to find them. Now to keep it fair. My cousin's dad who had been divorced dropped dead at the start of Covid and ended up the same exact way. Neighbors eventually broke open the door and found him. He had left my aunt years ago, lived alone and got sick while she remarried and found happiness with someone else. The same way women need men, men need women. Being 70, watching the game and having a heart attack during half time in your recliner and not being able to reach the phone is not the wave breh. Now obviously you can get married and have that still happen but, the point is if you don't cultivate any strong relationships, eventually you will end up being a lonely motherfukka. Both sides need to chill out with this gender war sh*t. It's dumb. Every man wants to die leaving a legacy behind with successful kids to carry on what you started and you not gonna get that being an eternal bachelor. And every woman wants to die feeling loved and cherished by their families and you not gonna get that being a trollop.

You make good points, but life doesn't work that way especially the bolded. It's shytty people who had tons of kids, and it's good people who couldn't conceive children. I mean you could always go with adoption as an option, and even with adoption all your cards would have to be in order.

For Gen Z? Yes.
And that goes for both sexes.

The harsh truth.

I blame the media for making the anti-family image the 'in' thing to be back in the early 00s. When people 30+ were partying like college students, and people chasing sex and superficial images that leads to Out of Wedlock children and that fly lifestyle that doesn't build anything of substance. Especially for Generation X, they the ones that started on that edgelord-I-don't-need-nobody-with-me nonsense of being single and lonely in their 40s and 50s.

Yeah definately....I think we're already seeing it

A lot of those women who were born in the 1960s who were in their 20s in the 1980s, and a generation removed from their mothers are much more likely to be single from what I can tell

I have aunts on both sides of my family who are never married, single and living alone well into their 60s heading into their 70s.

most of my older female cousins who were born in the 1970s, and in their 40s close to 50s are single, living alone

several of my wife's friends are in their late 30s and early 40s are single/never married

I think as it they get older it definately becomes harder to find someone permanent. The men that are left are either married, or happier being single and jumping from woman to woman--there are very few single men who are open to settling down

But impo I think they are paying the price for all those years they spent sport fuking in the 70s,80s and 90s...they bypassed a lot of good men, and now those other men are long gone

Now if you go back to my grandparents and their cousins and family 30 years ago when they were that age (they were born in the 1920s,30s and 40s)--the [black] women were all married and had children with homes etc etc...the women were more marriagable, and made better choices in men

There has been without a doubt a change

Blame the Bachelor lifestyle Puffy made popular in the mid 90s when he got famous. That was the same time when a lot of black folks stopped getting married, and in the mid 00s, weddings were getting scarce.

If you a single mom with kids then it ain't that bad because you have children but shyt going to get real for people who are single childless up in they old age. My girlfriends aunt is a single older women with no kids and she fell in the tub and broke her back and was in that bytch for 12 hours couldn't get out of the tub. A neighbour eventually came by and had to call an ambulance to get her out. People don't think about shyt like this when not having a spouse or any children around to avoid shyt like this.

That scary, and definitely true. A lot of people in Gen X think that they can never get old, and now that most of them are in their middle aged years, that is a scary reality. Gen Y just sorting themselves out, and Gen Z might as well be the death of humanity.

it aint equal ...most men are use to going through times of isolation and invisibility...most women aren't...say what you want, but i think women deal with being 30+,40+ and 50+ much harder than single men do.

you literlly deal with getting catcalled for the first 35 years of your life...to not having anyone know you exist anymore

So you think a 50 year old woman doesn’t exist to men in her age bracket?

 

[Dr. Acula]

Yes. So will the men.

They dont value building something together.

 

[Peter Popoff]

Women usually don’t have to worry about this as much as you think, because the social networks we establish earlier in life.

Most women that have children, regardless of if their relationship/marriage works out, will always be an integral part of their children’s family structure. In turn, women are usually absorbed as a caretaker for their children families until they die.

And even those “cat ladies” that fail to reproduce often still maintain connections with other older women in their same position. It’s not odd for older childless women to move in with each other for support and companionship.

Men usually don’t have these same connections with friends and family so ima just pray for y’all.

Matthew 24:19: "And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days!".
Something to think about.

no there are more men than women. It’s like 102 men for every 100 women.

But most women will find a mate if they don’t they’re either can’t find what they want, have personal issues that don’t allow them to have a successful relationship, want to be alone, or have more than one.

That 1.02 to 1.00 ratio is at birth, I don't know what happens between then and men's mid 20s that makes men's number dwindle. India and China( the most populous countries), the two countries mainly responsible for this ratio, had to carry out mass femicide to get where they are now along with other middle eastern countries. But in 95% of the world, from mid 20s going up, women outnumber men.

 

[Wiles]

I think just as many single men will be in that same boat unfortunately. Hopefully some of the Brehs who post on this site start to focus on that possibility for their own lives.

There’s actually a desperate breh who’s nearly 40 on here who hits up Brehettes, so desperate for some cheeks that even when he finds out you’re in a relationship he asks if you’d be open to inviting him in a mmf threesome. That’s after he tries to find out if you have single friends and why no one on tinder wants him.

All I’m saying is some of y’all are single asf and perhaps need to be worrying about getting a partner yourself and less about what’s going to happen to women you don’t even know.

But in 95% of the world, from mid 20s going up, women outnumber men.

That ratio is actually from birth to 54 for the world (1.07 at birth for the world). But since we’re breaking it down, even in just the United States from age 0 to 54 men outnumber women. And I doubt y’all are looking at women over 54. But either way there are still more men on earth than women, that’s all I was saying because a lot of men like to think that young women are vastly outnumbering men when it’s the opposite, there are more young and middle aged men than young and middle aged women in most counties then men start dying off and it’s a bunch of grandmothers after that.

The link/image below is just for the United States

But either way it doesn’t really matter because there are so many other factors like women and men that are mentally ill, physically disabled, undesirable etc etc
