I kinda feel she described herself as an "older woman" just for the rage bait.

Once you pass 18 you're officially old, and there's no turning back

You excluded the part where the guy literally said she was to blame for his poverty... Because DEI I guess. Lmfao two very deranged men.

[-] SkunkWorkz@lemmy.world 24 points 4 weeks ago

Also funny how he assumes she’s American. Just did some research 🧐 and she’s Australian. In Australia you get into a uni based on grades, not with a dog and pony show like in the US. So DEI doesn’t even apply.

[-] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 7 points 4 weeks ago

Merit is the worst kind of DEI.

[-] calliope@retrolemmy.com 13 points 4 weeks ago

Thanks for pointing this out! The full text is unhinged.

I had been wondering where the other hand was in that little exchange. Guy should put a monocle on for his fucking bio pic. What an absolute douchebag.

Lmfao two very deranged men.

Well the guy lives on Twitter. It's par for the course.

[-] blackris@discuss.tchncs.de 78 points 4 weeks ago

Being on Twitter in 2026 is crazy. Seemingly paying for that shit even more.

Pushing 40 with no kids and couldn't be happier about that.

[-] PhoenixDog@lemmy.world 30 points 4 weeks ago

I'm 39. Partner is 40. Married over 8 years.

More than once we've had a shit day with weather, or something breaking in the house, or dogs being sick, etc etc... And we'll turn to each other and say "Imagine we also had kids?"

Fuck. All. Of. That.

[-] TankovayaDiviziya@lemmy.world 7 points 4 weeks ago

I'm single and I am thinking "I can barely clean after and cook for myself. Imagine if I have kids."

[-] Frostbeard@lemmy.world 2 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago)

You have The clarity to recognize that you would need to step up if the situation arose.

I think you would do good

[-] Taleya@aussie.zone 11 points 4 weeks ago

Pushing 50 and no kids, no regrets. It randomly came up talking with friends last week and my husband literally barked with laughter "i fuckin' sank that ship 20 years ago looool"

[-] Garbagio@lemmy.zip 5 points 4 weeks ago

And even if you wanted kids, it's fine. Late 30's here, happy I have none right now, and still planning to have some. Postponing dreams until a better place isn't a bad thing at all.

[-] deacon@lemmy.world 60 points 4 weeks ago

on the one hand, men in glass houses have no business throwing stones

what is on the other hand???

[-] ClipperDefiance@lemmy.world 19 points 4 weeks ago

The link in the description has the full comment. OP said that they cropped the original image to keep it from being super long.

[-] calliope@retrolemmy.com 47 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago)

I actually thought it was just a rhetorical joke setup. Like, there is no other hand.

But no, he actually blames the woman herself.

On the one hand, men in glass houses have no business throwing stones.

He was wrong for that & should've known better.

On the other, he can't post nudes online as his meal ticket the way you can.

Beauty privilege is as real as financial privilege; partly earned, mostly inherited. As an OF creator, your body is capital.

On top of that, for the past several decades, government rigged hiring & university enrollment in your favor, excluding & impoverishing heterosexual white men in particular.

You are, to some extent, to blame for his poverty, & now you're dunking on a homeless man from a position of historically unprecedented privilege because of a mild barb. You reveal more of your inner ugliness than you likely intend.

Lmao “It’s everyone else’s fault I suck!”

[-] treesapx@lemmy.world 32 points 4 weeks ago

Dudes blaming the patriarchy in the most patriarchal way imaginable.

[-] calliope@retrolemmy.com 2 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago)

I honestly even forgot the “roughin’ it for clout” guy started the whole thing by saying

Pushing 30 with no kids in 2026 is Crazy

[-] prole 8 points 4 weeks ago

You are, to some extent, to blame for his poverty,

Lol fucking what?

[-] calliope@retrolemmy.com 3 points 4 weeks ago

Keep in mind, she’s to blame for a man’s “poverty” who, unprovoked, said “Pushing 30 in 2026 with no kids is Crazy.”

The whole thing is accidental performance art.

[-] deacon@lemmy.world 7 points 4 weeks ago

Wow. But I can almost guarantee he would unironically wax principled about the importance of personal responsibility.

Sense may be common, but self-awareness seems elusive to many.

[-] Bombastic@sopuli.xyz 5 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago)

A homeless man that pays for the blue twitter checkmark, mind you

for the past several decades, government rigged hiring & university enrollment in your favor, excluding & impoverishing heterosexual white men in particular.

tbf university specifically doesn't turn out to actually be financially rewarding today; lots of people have degrees but it doesn't really help them on the labor market.

and i even argue that DEI hiring does not happen so much because it's government mandated but because companies prefer the cheaper labor that they get from women, because they often do comparable labor but get lower wages, so the company saves some money. DEI is just an excuse the company brings forward to justify it in front of their male employees, so the management doesn't get hated for replacing the workforce with other, cheaper workforce. at least that's my guess if i had to make one.

[-] Twofacetony@lemmy.world 13 points 4 weeks ago
[-] PhoenixDog@lemmy.world 4 points 4 weeks ago

And broken house glass everywhere. Now you're homeless. Like the dude in the comment chain.

[-] Taleya@aussie.zone 5 points 4 weeks ago

On the other hand it's funny watching a shithead dig their own grave

[-] mcqtom@lemmy.world 49 points 4 weeks ago

My car is also a beautiful moving.

[-] gAlienLifeform@lemmy.world 12 points 4 weeks ago

I had a beautiful moving in the bathroom this morning after a few cups of coffee

[-] flamingleg@lemmy.ml 43 points 4 weeks ago

not having kids is one of the few things i am utterly, truly grateful for.

[-] OopsOverbombing@lemmy.world 12 points 4 weeks ago

#childfree baby! So glad I got a vasectomy.

[-] SkunkWorkz@lemmy.world 41 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago)

Bro it’s 2026. Almost every woman with children in my close circle who is of my generation had their first kid in their thirties. Like raising a kid is much easier when you have a stable financial foundation.

[-] lightnsfw@reddthat.com 14 points 4 weeks ago

All the ones in my circle who had kids in their 20s are miserable. The rest are childless and much happier (at least given the times we're living in).

[-] Delphia@lemmy.world 9 points 4 weeks ago

I have a friend who had his first at 18, I had my first at 36. We honestly cant work out who had/has it easier.

He had to scrimp and stretch every penny he could get his hands on. But he was young, had energy and his parents were young enough to help alot.

I'm financially secure (enough and for now) but I'm always tired as fuck, short on time and the grandparents probably consume as much time as they save.

[-] expr@programming.dev 4 points 4 weeks ago

The average age for first childbirth is 29.6 years old. It's absolutely the norm to have kids at an older age.

[-] ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 39 points 4 weeks ago
[-] Xyphius@lemmy.ca 17 points 4 weeks ago

I always thought "older women" meant mid 40's and up.

[-] SpookyBogMonster@lemmy.ml 17 points 4 weeks ago

Young people seem to think that turning 30 is the same as dying, and I just don't get it

[-] NikkiDimes@lemmy.world 9 points 4 weeks ago

Eh, I'm approaching mid 30s, I kinda feel like I'm dying. I get it.

[-] BigDanishGuy@sh.itjust.works 14 points 4 weeks ago

Cheer up kid, it gets alot worse

Just started my 30s; please put me in a coffin.

[-] vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 weeks ago

I'm 26 and feel like I'm dying already, can I just die with a chunk of iron in my lungs and the blood of a fed on my hands already.

Straight up murked.

[-] selokichtli@lemmy.ml 8 points 4 weeks ago

I don't understand this at all, but I think they are two ordinary people trying to diminish each other because of their choices in life, or something. This is why I don't like Twitter, Meta networks and Reddit. Good luck to these people.

[-] ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago

He might be homeless, but women are living in his head rent free.

[-] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 3 points 4 weeks ago

Eh, if I was still thinking about dating, I'd maybe date her, even if she is a bit young for an older woman.
