SexismFreddie Woo tells us: Despite being a well rounded modern man I think women are best off getting married and having a few kids else they'll be absolutely miserable come middle age.
What views do you have that are probably sexist that you believe are true?

also...... if you dropped into the middle of the housing frenzy of the last 15 years say, and found that your housing options were
1. stretching past the limit to get a mortgage on a decent place or
2. renting a flat underneath a sociopathic ex junkie
then most people would aim for '1' ... which also added to the upward price spiral, until such times as '1' was no longer an option for anyone earning less than £35k pa unless they had rich parents ... now lots of people live underneath sociopathic ex junkies (not that i'm bitter)

but......you weren't forced to live under the sociopath. Of course, the cost of renting is linked to the cost of property, so that's an issue too.
Blame the banking industry which was, in effect, generating a housing based Ponzi scheme. Sorta.
One thing I've noticed is that far fewer people seem to share with friends, especially outside of London, than they used to. This is a shame - this is a chance for some people to maybe learn some social skills, meet new folks, etc.
