I always wonder why so many lovely, accomplished, educated, women sign up. Sometimes I think they are eager to visit exotic places and have eight or ten weeks getting paid to be nice and have fun. A few seem obviously to be hoping for fame. And, lol, then there are the token weirdos who must realize why they are there.
On a more serious note, however, I have become convinced that this generation of "winners" have put their educations and careers first and then...there is no longer access to a bunch of guys like my generation had as potential husbands. My adult daughters know alot of lovely, funny, financially independent women who are now 50ish and having to accept they will not be Moms or likely find a husband. Georgia and Fl sure have alot of great women who are hopeful.
My peers and I all got married in college with-o a thought of ever supporting ourselves and our children, sigh. The next generation seemed to wait until their early 20's and had a degree or occupational potential. This group seems to have made "mature" choices and yet often they are alone. It's a bit sad to me. DDD
