Let me get back to the topic. No need of arguing here. Some weeks ago I went on a job interview at a family court house in the Bronx. It was real sad and it gave me a stark look at the single mother situation. A line of probably more than fifty women queued up to file child support papers against ex lover's. I saw some women with kids of different skin tones and hair texture, I had go ask why did these women did not know any better.
I have a childhood friend who has 2 kids by 2 different men and she's a single mom in her late 20s.
On the outside you would feel sorry for her because she has to raise 2 kids alone, but I knew her and how she was when she was younger in that she was wild, liked to drink, party, and sleep around with different guys.
I only feel sorry for the kids, they have to grow up in impoverished dysfunctional homes.
Add to that, that any of the men involved are/were losers. It's funny in a sad way because this stuff typically comes from guys who complain about misandry.
So wait a minute the men these women sleep with are their winners and not losers? I thought you said losers bed with losers. Damn lady you just contradicted yourself.
fact of the matter is if we had wombs our bad choices would be incredibly obvious as well
Come on man, men make poor choices as well, but the difference is that we own up to our mistakes and we lie in the bed we made. On the other hand, very rarely does a woman own up to a mistake she made. This is why women always come from the victim angle to try and get sympathy when they discuss the issue of being a single mom.

Are you living on another planet? Men are punished more swiftly and harshly then women under most instances.

Women always come from the victim angle to try and get sympathy out of a situation they could have prevented.
generalize much?
i know plenty of guys who aren't responsible at all and bounce from one eff-up to the next
any men are from mars women are from venus argument is bound to have a ton of holes
but it's irrefutable that the stakes are lower for men than for women when it comes to birth control

I'm not contradicting myself. Losers do take up with their own. Loser does not equal single parent even if some single parents happen to fit the loser label. Is it really too complicated to grasp?
If you don't understand what the terms mean (professional, career, educated) you're not along well enough to have a discussion. I suppose that is what this conversation is about, but you would probably learn more by investigating these terms yourself. You can start with dictionary.com, wiki, and then investigate various careers at uni websites, linkedin, and maybe glassdoor. Those exercises alone will bring you greater benefit than me pasting a paragraph for you. Good luck and check back in with your progress, little one.
I'd say that advice is better suited for yourself dear. Its fairly obvious what the term means but you lack the comprehension or creativity to muster up anything aside from trite excursions into banality. It doesn't surprise me though, in your case its a bit of a reflexive hamster (or rather rat as I've mentioned in the past) moving too fast. Its a bit ironic and comedic (and expected), at any other time you break your neck to mention a rather unforgettable anecdote concerning an observation about your workplace.
Bronxguyanese is on point as usual with his hilarious assessment (lolz @ phd nearing menopause). I've smashed "career" women who ranged from ivy grads, finance, to ones who considered themselves to be apart of specific intelligentsia circles (in nyc). I don't really complain because I get my pick of the litter but its overbearing dealing with them in their over the hill stages (when they have specific realizations about the reality absurd ideologies). During my "indoctrination" (college) period, one of my main mentors was/is a well noted feminist. She had wrote one often quoted (and damaging) text in particular, one that could in fact be read as a manifesto towards spinsterisms. She was a good teacher of craft, so I often visit her to relay my progress and we talk about her book every now and then. I can't help but to notice what sounds like regret. I've often wondered if it had to do with years of espousing the "cake and eat it too rhetoric", whatever it is I know that its a gaping and knowingly unacknowledged void (within Women of her generation).
Personally I've always felt terms like "career women" where bore out of the feeling of trying to overly compensate (and laced with self flagellation within the lexicon of those who champion such newspeak). Its also a term used by the unimaginative and those lacking ambition and drive, not all women are equal.
Hey, right there, what you should have gone with was "Sammy Gay-vis Jr."
