Hiiiiiii, user! I haven't seen you in so long, what have you been up to? Have you published that novel yet? ^_^ I graduated with a dual degree in English Literature and Physics.

i called user a fag, that was amazing

Im studying my fourth language. Not that i intend to go to the countries. I hate everybody

I remember a girl I knew since elementary school ran into me in University and asked me what I was studying, I never bothered to ask her what she was studying. Seems kinda based in retrospect, we talked about me and then I left.

Shortly after graduating summa cum laude from Harvard in Mathematics, Physics, and Arabic I was awarded the Rhodes Scholarship. Upon completion of my graduate studies I founded an NGO and then a rather profitable AI startup. Alas, the world of business quickly became too tiresome to endure, so I returned to Oxford, this time as an All Souls fellow, where I am writing a lengthy indictment against the secularization of the sciences.

Both are true and both are sad

Nah, most men will be fine as long as they learn to stop caring about sex in a rigged dating economy

Yes, thank you for asking! I currently have four novels out, two of which have sold thousands of copies already. I'm working on a fifth, longer writing project and negotiating multiple deals with various movie studios for adaptations of my current and future work. I would love to chat more, but I really have to be getting back to my career as a self made creative success. I'm very proud you got your degree!

What have I been up to? Mostly languishing in self doubt after completing my philosophy degree. The novel? Well, you know, the whole self doubt thing, so not good. Yeah, I moved back in with my parents after my suicide attempt due to the realisation that I'll most likely have to spend my entire life working an office job I hate or subsist on government benefits. But enough about me.

Not much really. I dropped out of engineering school despite being somewhat gifted and with a full scholarship. Had a mental breakdown, almost killed myself, on meds due to bipolarity and schizophrenia. Moved to Eastern Europe for no reason and now embraced the religion/philosophy pill and I’m applying to study priesthood in Roman churches, so one could say it’s been a ride hehe.

this is really good. must've taken you a while to write. but it makes me feel a lot of sympathy for women, who i feel are pushed into such a manner of living by societal images presented to them. imagine being a girl, having a model of "what girls should do" presented to you from childhood onwards, and it consists entirely of "be pretty, be liked, be popular, be carefree and have fun", with nothing substantial beyond that. highschool is where such a mode of living becomes the aim of many or most girls, and college cements it even further, and the prevelance of social media enforces it alongside these, such that every waking moment is now made visible to others and one in which girls showcase to other girls the degree of success they've had in attaining such an ideal. sure, guys have messaging directed our way too, but nothing so hollow as what girls are given, and social media doesn't exploit our psychological weaknesses nearly as much as it does with females. anyways i hope you aren't a hateful person because this was a really good write-up (+ a really nifty cat image), which demonstrates how acutely you've observed the trajectory of many modern women, and i hope it brings you to hold sympathy for them rather than embitterment like so many males today do. blessings to you

Blessings to you, femanon. You will find happiness when you throw off the social conditioning you've been fed your whole life, and follow your heart where it truly takes you. After that, it's just a matter of getting there. Everything will be okay.

Based kindposter.

Am I the only person who doesn't wish to have a child, or get married? I'm male though. I just don't understand why people willingly wish to make their lives harder, by having children that not only need to be raised properly but will take much of one's finances and time and energy to do so. I know it's the "normal" thing to do, but I've never wanted to go that route. Having OCD and ADHD makes me barely able to take care of myself, let alone another person. Marriage is potentially acceptable, but I'd rather simply find a soulmate and be with her forever, without formal designations like that of marriage.

A faux-sympathetic analysis of the plight of upper middle class women in a capitalist system. This post is just subtle propaganda signalling the same old traditionalist bullshit: women are the happiest when they shut up and resign themselves to perpetual baby-making. You managed to convince this dumb bitch: , so I guess points for that.

This. I will never have kids. They just ruin your life but you make excuses for it because you love them. I honestly can't have kids in good faith after seeing how me and my siblings utterly destroyed my mother.

Atleast you have a fucking job.

Who the hell are you exactly? Most of the people I know are borderline retarded.

It's still better than being a woman desu

Wait, women don't expierience that?

*experience

it's rough for both genders, it really is. sad all around

Isn't the only Harvard Undergrad dual degree the management one from the extension school? I think there might be a music one too... They call their equivalent of double majoring a "joint concentration" and you have to combine all concentrations into some final thesis. How you'd do physics and literature... jesus.

>and follow your heart
why would you give such awful and destructive advice?

Blessings to your mother. May she be okay. Do your best to take care of her and repay the sacrifices she made for you. Don't let society pressure you into having kids, though. A growing number of people are abandoning that conditioning and living childless, which makes it easier to do so.

wish life stayed somewhat similar from when I was 7 in the sense that everyone were just acting like themselves and that was that. Guess that won't really happen again until you're old as shit.

I don't mean to be rude, but who are you? And why are you talking like a man on Yea Forums pretending to be a female!? What's the matter with you, woman?

What is the way forward for modern women, which does not involve resorting to the earlier role they were fixed to? They have every right to work and be independent, but if they also want children, what should they do? Maybe artificial ins*menation is a solution.

Shut the fuck up you stupid fucking retarded cunt :3

No one loves you :3

Single motherhood is pretty easy to achieve the natural way, and artificial insemination and egg donation already exists. Almost all married lesbians and gays do it to get biological children. Google Andy Cohen baby

>All Souls fellow, where I am writing a lengthy indictment against the secularization of the sciences.
Doing god's work, user.

It is. We shouldn't forget that men and women are subject to the same indoctrination (although the messaging is slightly different for both). For men, the message is "work yourself to death and face being ostracised the second you show any emotion". For women, the message is "look pretty and let men fix every mess you get into, unless you buy into our neoliberal capitalist brand of feminism, in which case you meet the same miserable fate as men".

Trying to start a gender war is stupid. In the end men and women are both being exploited and robbed of their dignity in a capitalist system that does nothing for them. Our only hope lies with the men and women who can see through the conditioning.

Is socialism and automation of labor the answer?

>What is the way forward for modern women

Whatever it is, you can be sure either a man will find it for them, or they'll slump into it passively.

>W-we just need to overthrow the capitalist system and everything will be fixed!

Poor wittle marxoid

It is your DUTY to have children.

lol nawp, that's an ancient lie

Socialism possibly. I’m sceptical about the use of automation however.

I think one of the biggest fundamental problems to be solved at a more immediate level however is the fact that men and women are taught throughout their lives to accept mediocrity. Be happy you got a B instead of an A, don’t inquire more deeply into things and just accept what you’re taught as irrefutable fact, consume product.

Reality hits people hard once they leave the comfy ivory towers of university. No one wants mediocre people, because they’re dime a dozen, especially when foreign labour is so cheap. Being unable to find decent employment, they seek material pleasures in an attempt to fend off the existential dread of having no unique personality or spiritual foundation. You can’t hope to change the social system without first educating the people and getting them to love education. Yet people don’t want to educate themselves because they feel comfortable in mediocrity. It’s not a meme when people say facing hardship builds character. Basically, the solution is to first encourage freeform learning and discourse for all.

If you take men and women to be the same then women are just inferior.
In reality, women are not just babymakers but nor are they men. This babymaker nonsense has no basis. It's your fantasy, rather a fantasy you've been fed as you sure as hell can't think for yourself. No one ever thought it, it never happened.

That's fair enough so long as you acknowledge it as a result of you being an incompetent and unprincipled contemporary man incapable of thinking beyond material convenience.

Fuck the current state of academia and fuck you, you insipid cunt

My own fulfillment means far more to me than satisfying society's wishes for me, and I'm not ashamed of that. And mental health conditions are not something I brought to myself, so I don't feel guilty for struggling under them either. I genuinely can't wait to not have children, and no external critic can shame me away from that mindset.

show feet

>gender roles bad
>capitalism is why me have to choose between career and domesticity


Amazing and original take.

Wasn't trying to be original. Just pointing out that the post was covert propaganda posing as a sympathetic analysis when in reality it is an attempt to signal than subjugation of women is good.

This is 90th percentile of self-awareness for women. Probably higher.

>subtle propaganda signalling the same old traditionalist bullshit: women are the happiest when they shut up and resign themselves to perpetual baby-making
Not true at all. The post (rightly) suggests that women are subject to mixed signals, including the idea that you need a husband and child to be happy but also that you can have that AND a career, AND a frivolous lifestyle of tourism and consumption. Most (smart) women don't fall for it as easily as the hypothetical woman in the quoted post, however.

I finally got into Princeton like I said I would, (only took 5 years) but its a complete disappointment

interesting takes really, i observe the former more so. i wonder how my life will end up. i didn't finish highschool and did hard labor for a few before > GED > community college > harvard-esque 4-year. im 25 but feel revitalized after starting school again. academics are disastrously difficult, and it doesn't help that i'm majoring in STEM—but, this trajectory almost makes more sense. already been through serious relationships, self-loathing, cultural introspection, existential dread; all that remains is a fiery need to make something happen in this world.

You actually remember what you have for lunch last week???

What about the weight of the dook you took?

More effort pls. Doesnt matter if seeth or troll. First greenspam was substantial. Either match it or dont try.

Because then you can own the fuckup instead of wonder about in on your deathbed.

Sounds pretty ubiquitous for white middle class kids. And sure the brainwashing against women is more excessive but it all leads to the same hole. At least you're still pretty young to find a passion and escape this shit.
