Welcome to Douglas Wilson's Blog and May Blog, presented by Canon Press.

Compared to what?

Wednesday, July 6, 2022, near Darla.

Now there are some strategic and tactical implications of what I wrote in my last few

letters.

It is time for us to game some of this out.

Let's get practical, or a bit more practical in your thinking at any rate.

You are in your mid-20s now and so you may have noticed that requests to go out with

guys are starting to taper off.

If you haven't noticed that yet, and if you don't get married in the next few years,

you can rest assured that at some point you will notice it.

42-year-old women don't get the same attention that 22-year-old women do.

And complaining about things like this is a fool's game.

It is like complaining about gravity.

Why is women work with the way the world actually is and not the way they would have liked

it to have been?

Now I do need to emphasize something, the front end of all this.

I have no desire whatever to be involved in pressuring any girl to say yes to some

guy she doesn't want to say yes to.

Nobody needs authority figures, parents, pastors, or even uncles, to be leaning heavily

on young ladies under their charge, just because the authority figure went to college

back in the day with Murgatroy and B Schwartz's parents.
