May I ask where you live?

I’m in a college town. State College, PA. Yes, it’s affluent enough to make home ownership unattainable for most. Even amongst the non-students in the area, financially independent young women simply don’t exist.

I own a yoga studio downtown and so I must admit that I talk to a fair amount of young women, albeit in a professional setting.

What’s weird about my observation? Do you know many young women who are financially independent?

Why are you upset about it?

State College, PA

I don’t know a single young woman (under 40) who is not financially dependent on a man, despite my wider-than-most social circles.

I’ve got young kids. Waking up early is the best time for me to be productive and enjoy solitude.

Also please don’t look at it

Yes. We’ll be ruled by a minority (Christian nationalists) because we think that downvoting on social media is sufficient participation in politics.

But isn’t this just democracy in action? The mandate of the people? If a majority vote for these principles then it must become the law of land.

The fact of the matter is that the fanatical Christians want results more than the left does. While we’re on here, uselessly upvoting and downvoting, they’re organizing their communities to achieve real world results. And except for a few notable characters, they’re playing by the rules of the game.
