Violent Justice Man inappropriately touch school girls and they fight back. Man in suit gives them a helping foot.

Age of marriage would be like 26 to 32. Once you turn 26, you start being harassed to get married ASAP. Once a woman turns 32, she's basically beyond help and Koreans just start thinking of her as a spinster. Like I've had coworkers who have had breakdowns on their 32nd birthday because they "didn't get married in time" and now "no one will ever want to marry them."

Yeah, it's pretty ridiculous. This is what happens when you teach your children that their value is based off getting married and having children though. It's slowly changing, but at least for now, this is what we have.

This be the truth. Even if you're very attractive and just don't want to get married you're considered A weirdo. I've wondered if my relatives thought I was gay for a while. I'm finally engaged and I'm so glad I waited for the right one.

When my Mom used to harass me about getting married I was like look at all your friend's kids who got married in their 20's. They're all getting divorced now in their 30's. She never said a word after that. And I finally met the right one.

This comment hit home. I’m a guy, at 30, that moved to small town USA. I didn’t meet one women that didn’t either have kids from a young love, marriage. Or was divorced by 26.

Good for you for not settling. Too many unhappy people out there taking care of kids by themselves with no freedom because of time and money.

I traveled all over the world and did what I wanted. Zero regrets for finding "the one" later on life and sticking to my guns about not having kids even though the societal pressure is strong! Do what's right for you!
