Demographic BOMBSHELL!

Marriage, the ball and chains, prison for life (without chance of parole), the list goes on and on but its certainly something not to take lightly. According to todays generations marriage is the end of the line and only something you do at the end of your 'run'. And its all conveniently explained by women.

After WWII women were given more choice, more education and more opportunity. This allowed women to switch roles from settling down and giving birth for 'civic duty' to working women with career goals and no time for the slow life. Also, after WWII the general populations life-style changed from looking forward to living in the present with a live in the moment attitude due to the death taken place in Europe. This was amplified right after the war with the heavy use of credit to buy now and pay later leading to the largest depression in Canadian history.

Todays women are more independent, cunning and business savvy, each pursuing long term goals with no preservation for searching for the perfect man or a family to get tied up with. Some of the most successful people in the world are women today, I mean just take a look at Oprah Winfrey.

Joke of the week:

A young husband with an inferiority complex insisted he was just a little pebble on a vast beach.

The marriage counselor, trying to be creative, told him, "If you wish to save your marriage, you'd better be a little boulder."
