But I am going to be honest here - even though you might not like it.
This woman's blog is spot on, no sarcasm. It is upsetting and certainly ugly but also quite sound. This is a lot like women's real politik. As a man reading it I am quite offended but I won't let that cloud my judgement. While not ideal, this blueprint is optimal. ....really? because i showed this to my wife to get her opinion on it and she said that is the worst piece of garbage shes ever read and that it is a blue print to ruining your life. Pretty much 99% of the advice is ment for gold diggers and people who like to walk a fine line between corporate fraud and out right lying (it is best to milk maternity leave for as long as possible so you can get paid without doing your job, while the legal department is deciding whether to fire you or not, you can draw a paycheck the whole time. Its great to start up a business even if you don't have any intentions of creating revenue because you can draw a salary until the investors stop investing.) Not to mention the straight gold digging advice, its best to attend business school early on and only after you've had face and chest plastic surgery............. The blue print is far from optimal if you actually want to be considered, you know, a human being.
Although I don't agree with the dishonesty, if a woman wants to have a family its far more optimal to focus on her looks and personality first and her career second. Men don't value a woman's career as much as her looks and personality. Men will even go as far as just valuing women on appearances. Yes there will always be exceptions to the rule but I'm referring to the majority here.

Interesting satiric/jaded take on this. :x
"Jaded" is exactly the word I was thinking of while I was reading this. It saddens me that people have given up on the world so much as to actually believe this mess.

go to work, send your kids to school, follow fashion, act normal, walk on the pavement, watch TV, save for your old age, obey the law Repeat after me: I am free

Freedom is slavery.
I think What the OP was trying to foculize attention on was How some people can become a little to much lobotomized. Thus one must find the balance in life..

'course, if you get hit by a car while not walking on the pavement, it's your own fault.

But why would I want to do a thing like that? I chose not to choose life. I chose somethin' else. And the reasons? There are no reasons. Who needs reasons when you've got heroin?

We are free to do things differently. The thing is that this normal path of life is, for most people, the most conducive to get what we want: financial stability, a family, friends, acceptance by society, comfort, etc. Alternate paths may take more effort, or risk, or whatever.
Think of it as a build order. You are of course free to blaze your own path, but we advise most players to follow the build order then vary according to circumstances of the game right?

Or you could create revenue streams so you don't have to work, teach your kids how to make money without getting a job so they don't have to go to school past high school, wear what you want and do what you want. You can live in society without being a wage slave.

The narrative of a hope crushing society is only as meaningful as one makes it.

No need to be a douchebad. I wrote that blog, not this blog. I meant the one that was linked.
