article: There's More to Life Than Freezing Your Eggs

I am 36 and recently made the decision to freeze my eggs. I know that I want to have a family, but have not met the right person to marry. I feel a lot of pressure to get married in the next couple of years so I can have children, and don't want this pressure to cause me to make a rash choice or to settle.

So let me get this straight. This chick thinks that she will be able to accomplish the catching of a proper husband at an older age then when she failed at a younger age? WTF? Perhaps what is really going on is that the freezing of eggs allows her to outgrow her pickiness and submit to a lesser man than Prince Charming.

The sad thing about this is that she probably could still pick up an incredibly sexually frustrated nerd at a higher age - something she would not be able to do in just about any other country. God Bless the USA ...
