Cries in spinster.

I’d rather be single than dating some jerk

baobab77 · 2021-04-23T20:11:30+00:00

Will I be punished by an aura of peace too? 😣😭

Laughs in child-free

Why is it that women become 'spinsters' with a negative connotation while men remain 'eligible bachelors'?

I am fully on board with reclaiming the term 'spinster' as positive rather than negative term.

I love that line! While I acknowledge my RBF and flat affect, sorry Sir. Eeeeeent! Incorrect answer! Been married twice, had a family in my 20’s, and my bio clock can fuck off. I plan on weeping into my retirement savings, boohoo. Alone. Happily. 😭😭😭

-does a spinster dance- Don’t tease me with a good time~ 💃

My favorite was "I'm 31, and no one has ever wanted to get me pregnant".

Being pregnant was never a goal of mine?

Thestral-glow6 · 2021-04-23T19:56:09+00:00

Hahah living the dream 💀😂

Mcccy · 2021-04-23T20:19:12+00:00

Oh no! So anyways,

intrepidis_dux · 2021-04-24T00:03:01+00:00

I have kids and this is still hilarious. But seriously even with kids, my life is less expensive without a man. Men are expensive! LV or NV ones are anyways.

Rich af intensifies

breadandbunny · 2021-04-24T02:45:31+00:00

Why do men seem to think women all want kids? Plenty of us don't for our own reasons.

randomgirlimok · 2021-04-23T22:40:41+00:00

if you’re dating a man and have no children...you are still taking care of a child

Novemberinthechair · 2021-04-23T21:56:24+00:00

🤣🤣🤣🤣

Spinsterhood is FREEDOM!

lolmemberberries · 2021-04-24T00:27:15+00:00

Don't threaten me with a good time.

Suspicious-Leg-1407 · 2021-04-23T21:27:34+00:00

What movie is that from?

DeclineNDash · 2021-04-24T02:14:25+00:00

Oh no! ☹️ weeps in non-toxic relationship status & overall improved wellbeing

LikelyWriting · 2021-04-23T23:56:43+00:00

The only thing I want in my life rn is money. In my bag for the rest of my life!

nyclaurco · 2021-04-23T23:05:32+00:00

getting some guy to go out with you and knock you up is among one of the easiest things ever. except for rare cases, women are single because they want to be.

bill_dolla · 2021-04-24T09:29:58+00:00

Here is an article talking about how single, child-free women are the happiest demographic on earth. https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/why-bad-looks-good/202102/why-are-single-women-without-children-so-happy

Also here’s a Ted talk on the joys of being single (short video and highly recommend!): https://youtu.be/lyZysfafOAs

Also here are some interesting books to read:

Regretting Motherhood by Orna Donath

Selfish, Shallow and Self-Absorbed by Meghan Daum

The Extra Woman by Joanna Scott

and

Spinster by Kate Bolick

There is nothing more powerful than finding peace within yourself. Have a nice day :)

Lykah · 2021-04-23T23:21:04+00:00

The difference is that a woman can opt out of spinsterhood anytime. Men can't do the same with inceldom.

jasminekisses4u · 2021-04-23T23:15:57+00:00

At this point whenever someone tells me this I take it as a compliment lol

kaitybubbly · 2021-04-24T00:03:57+00:00

I love this so much!

laffytaggy · 2021-04-24T02:34:02+00:00

Love it

ceilingkatwatchesus · 2021-04-24T09:54:39+00:00

Ahahahahah being single is waayyy better than being with some A-hole. I rather hang out with my cats, sip wine and watch unsolved mysteries. If this is what it means to be single and childless than I'm happy with it.

SnooEagles9138 · 2021-04-24T09:17:35+00:00

Unless a woman is struggling with infertility, we can always go to a sperm bank. WE are the ones that have the choice of procreation - not guys.

spinsterchachkies · 2021-04-24T15:47:02+00:00

Lmaoo

the-lonely-spirit · 2021-05-03T16:49:47+00:00

Oh lawd I laughed a little too hysterically at this.

I'm slowly setting up plans on having a goat farm in the mountains and being that old crotchety lady that invites her coven to tea and cookies lmao

Best part is no men allowed!
