Spoilt Brats?

    Why is it that so many women in their twenties (and some in their thirties and older too) behave like spoilt brats who think the world revolves around them?

    I won't actually have female tenants in my flat any more as every single one has been a total pain in the neck, unable to do anything for themselves and constantly phoning with very minor/non-complaints. They are a total nightmare.

    Or take some of my single acquaintancies, who constantly bemoan the fact that they are single. It never occurs to them that it might because they talk constantly about themselves in a monologue, are incapable of cleaning up after themselves and still get most things done for them by their parents?

    Or a married one, who thinks it perfectly acceptable to have an affair a year after the birth of her first child, because her husband "rushed" her into marriage (at the age of 32), and still manages to have the poor misguided fool running around after her every whim? Honestly, I'm scared to log on to Facebook as she immediately pops up on chat to ramble on about her woes, yet never comments on my status or simply asks me how I'm doing.

    I could go on. Am I just mean, or is it actually a phonomenon, caused by over-indulgent parents or something?

    Jesus, maybe it's just you and the people you associate with.
    I know many amazing men and women in their 20s, 30s and 40s. Kind decent people with empathy and kindness and consideration. If they weren't I would not be bothered with them. Maybe you need to learn to deal with a better class of person instead of swinging the gender brush of blame.

    A thread that comes across as woman bashing is not really a fit for the Ladies Lounge, is it? If you like I'll move it to AH or humanities, but it doesn't have a home here, so closed. Thanks.

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.
