Does This Mean You’re Not Part of the Woman’s Club?
Manage episode 422999348 series 3567072
In this episode of Childless and Moving Onward, I delve into the social exclusion faced by childless women, sharing my own personal experiences. Childless women frequently find themselves treated as outsiders in both social and professional settings, leading to feelings of isolation and judgment.
The pervasive societal belief that motherhood is integral to womanhood often results in childless women feeling inadequate. Part of this is due to the fact that many social gathering discussions are often centered around motherhood. I provide some tips to help combat these feelings of isolation.
Key Episode Takeaways:
- Feelings of isolation and inadequacy are common in women who are childless not by choice.
- Social gathering discussions are often centered around motherhood and children.
- The constant exposure to motherhood's idealization can leave childless women feeling less accomplished.
- Childless not by choice women often experience ongoing grief.
