A generation-defining examination of the new midlife crisis facing Gen X women and the unique circumstances that have brought them to this point, Why We Can’t Sleep is a lively successor to Passages by Gail Sheehy and The Defining Decade by Meg Jay.
When Ada Calhoun found herself in the throes of a midlife crisis, she thought that she had no right to complain. She was married with children and a good career. So why did she feel miserable? And why did it seem that other Generation X women were miserable, too?
Calhoun decided to find some answers. She looked into housing costs, HR trends, credit card debt averages, and divorce data. At every turn, she saw a pattern: sandwiched between the Boomers and Millennials, Gen X women were facing new problems as they entered middle age, problems that were being largely overlooked.
Speaking with women across America about their experiences as the generation expected to “have it all”, Calhoun found that most were exhausted, terrified about money, under-employed, and overwhelmed. Instead of their issues being heard, they were told to lean in, take “me time”, or make a chore chart to get their lives and homes in order.
In Why We Can’t Sleep, Calhoun opens up the cultural and political contexts of Gen X’s predicament and offers solutions for how to pull oneself out of the abyss - and keep the next generation from falling in. The result is reassuring, empowering, and essential listening for all middle-aged women, and anyone who hopes to understand them.

Perhaps they’re feeling guilty for hopping on the ‘blame it on the white man’ bandwagon just to score a few vapid SJW signalling points in their online ‘community’ of people they’ve never met?
My father was kind, gentle, caring & devoted to myself, my sisters & our mother, but he was white & that I can’t forgive.

Women leading more women down the wrong path, and by the time they figure out it will be too late with the Barbarian at the gates, as we are starting to see a little now. Voting for Socialism and centralized corruption, Narcissism, Selfishness, being loyal to one’s feelings and fellow women above anything else, refusing to call out vile Female behavior like Divorce rape and using kids as pawns in divorce, and the impossibility of keeping a modern women happy should be discussed first, but i am 99% sure this won’t be discussed. Free Agent Lifestyle is a great YouTube channel that nails Women’s psychology and Dark side.

There are a lot of women in their 30’s that realize that all their work towards being independent and self sufficient has made them miss having a family, and will likely never be married or have any permanent partner. Men today don’t want to be with women who are like that, they want women who feel they depend on them, so they can take care of them. Which explains why so many men are going overseas to find a women who cares more about family than western women do. as well, they want their wives to properly raise their children. Looks like all this “I’m an independent woman who dont need no man” has completely backfired on them, and no, they are not getting a man or a family, just a lonely single existence. They listened to all the feminist jargon, and now realize what it really did to them.

Once again, Pigface, it’s not women’s fault that they find you repulsive. It’s because you have the face of a pig and the personality of a fence post that has become sentient and spends it’s days angry.
Your pompous judgement of women is all the more hilarious given that we ALL know you’re just a snivelling incel virgin.
