If the labour market wasn't flooded with women and people seeking a better life wages would be higher and more people could afford a home, and there would be more homes available, Maybe?

No, women are happier with a family? The generation raised on sex and the city are regretting their life choices now that they have hit the wall harder than Lewis Hamilton at Sochi and their potential partners have gone from the rugby team to a Nu-Male forum poster.

There’s also the reluctance of the banks to give mortgages anymore post-2008. My sister was told by the bank she couldn’t afford a £500 a month mortgage in their view, so she has to keep paying £700 a month in rent.

Money makes money is old saying across the globe, but it’s very relevant now in the West and China.

To give examples I’ve seen in recent years.

Wealthy Dad gifted his son £300k as a deposit to buy a £750k flat in a lovely part of London. The 20-something year son’s a professional on great pay, so obtaining a £450k mortgage was a sinch.

The financial wins were two fold:
- a LTV to value of just 60%, meant the lowest mortgage rates were available.
- the flat’s now worth £1.25m. The 20-something year old with no lifetime savings of his own (he didn’t do the hard yards of saving), now has personal wealth of £800k!!!

I’ve seen many example where the bank of mum/dad/grandparents (not toffs or necessarily Tories …. plenty of wealthy socialists round here who talk the talk), who gifted each of the next gen £75k to get on the property ladder. Kids now sitting in homes worth far more than they paid.

SE England/Cornwall/Devon is a crazy place now of the haves and have nots.

How the hell do the majority, the hoi polloi survive by comparison?

Answers on a postcard please nsc.

I am a women and I raised a family while having full time job allowing us to have a mortgage and pay our bills. I have zero regrets.

Men like you think it is acceptable to try to tell women how they should think and behave. You are a *unt of the highest order and should get a time machine back to the 30s,

'The worst pop music since the 1950s ?! You mean Chuck Berry. Elvis Presley [Sun years - pre dreadful films, fat man Vegas years, Jerry Lee Lewis [the most dynamic white performer ever in my view], Little Richard, Fats Domino, Buddy Holly. The original 50s rock'n'roll was pure dynamite that sent teenagers into a frenzy that only the Beatles could surpass. The songs resonate still today and without them there would have been no Beatles or Stones. They also scared the hell out of the establishment - 'How much is that doggie in the window' was all very well but Little Richard whopping a storm of filth was something altogether different.
If you want to find a decade of corporate inspired nothingness try the 80's - Duran Duran, Spandau Ballet and utterly risible 'hair metal' acts from the US.

I love all the acts you mention, but other than Elvis I'm not sure they did much way of the charts in the UK on the 50s. But I will happily correct it to the worst pop music of all time

Not bothered what you are good on you giving it back to the deluded cretins up their own ass on this board.

I personally find people getting on Lenny Rider's back similar to what happened to Uncle Spielberg quite a few years ago.
Both went through difficult times and probably made the mistake in declaring their mental health issues on here.
Whilst it can be a very supportive forum other users can see it as open season on a vulnerable person.
This is social media these days I suppose.

Oh no, here come the male feminists!

What utterly regressive tripe - genuinely shocked that there are people who operate with the level of ignorance and misogyny. Suggest doing some research as you’ll find plenty of FACTS that counter your clearly uneducated attitude that any sphere of society could be worse because of greater diversity in gender representation.

I grew up with a mum who was a senior teacher in a local comp. This was in the 70s. The concept of of all women being at home whilst their kids grew up has always been alien to me.

I got decent results to get into uni. Now I watch dumbos getting into the University of Spunkbridge to spend 3 years studying a complete non subject.

Don’t know they are born…

As an under 30, 99% of us can’t even dream of affording a mortgage unless they rely on the bank of Mum & Dad

In fact, a lot of us can’t even afford to rent our own place in our own hometowns so I’m glad we’ve had it easy so far.

This. My 31 year old bought her house a few years ago only because she lived at home with us rent and bills free for several years and we gave her and her husband a wedge out of our house.

Otherwise they'd be caught up in the 'rent trap'.

Only annoying thing was his family said they'd put in £50k too only to pull out and they are far more wealthy than we are.

They still have a massive mortgage each month to buy a 3 bed semi in Shoreham.

OP is talking shite. Yes they've not experienced a recession, but it's hardly been an easy ride.

That @US stuff was bizarre. A good bloke imo, some nsc bitches targeted him.

Made me like him all the more.

Sorry, I thought we both agreed to pull out
