I honestly thought this post was going to be easy to write. The participants may differ but the scenario is ALWAYS the same. Inevitably someone says, “well Ms. Joyll you’re 30-ish, you don’t have any children yet, when are you going to give your parents some more beautiful grandchildren?” UGGGGH this question makes me want to pull out all my hair & for those of you that know me you know that’s alot of bloody hair! BUT, as irritating as this question is….oh I have the response digitally recorded so as not to lose my voice by the way (my parents have been married 35 beautiful years & taught me the.importance of children coming AFTER marriage), its NOT the worst possible scenario that this comes up in. THAT….WELL……THAT…
As we all know all too well, sex comes up entirely too much in casual conversation these days. You almost cannot do anything without it being mentioned or visualized in some capacity. So on the few dates I end up on or even worse or better depending on your point of view, it ALWAYS comes up. And then of course comes, THE QUESTION.”Well do you have ANY children?” “No”, I reply.( insert SNARK from other side of phone, table, fiber, whatever) Dude is automatically thinking, wait in her 30s with NO KIDS? WHAT IN THE SAM HELL IS WRONG WITH HER!!??!!! Let’s see, she’s got a great career, she’s nice, intelligent, stunningly beautiful :-), can cook, has a great sense of humour, a sense of style, & can get along with almost anyone. So what’s the issue? Calmly presses play on digital recorder….Well my parents….35 years….NO WEDDING, NO WOMB. Any Questions? presses play…… This Is Joyll Cambridge, The Humanist Exec, Have a fantastically wonderful day!
