I think the whole human race is immature.

I was not shocked to find immaturity rampant among furries. Neither was it really all that surprising to find that ball joint doll fans tended to be childish. And of course it's no more than one might expect to see that My Little Pony fans are not always paragons of adult behavior (though actually they seem to do better than the former two fandoms,) but man... the official board of inquiry for a certain reptile themed forum is worse than any of the above mentioned for childish insults! Here are threads that are intended to be serious, facts-only discussions of business practices, where grown men are calling each other names. Somebody actuall was running around calling somebody else named "Barry" "Dingleberry." I haven't heard something like that since I left elementary school.

I am forced to conclude that the entire human race is descending into childhood.

True enough. That there's an either-or choice between career and motherhood shows how far we've got to go on doing more than lip-service to the idea that women can be successful mothers and maintain a job and career. Perhaps if we could sweep away some of the dust that maintains that a woman's place is always in the home, raising children and being subservient, then we could finally lay down a workable set of ideas to get women working and raising children.
