A recent online discussion has sparked controversy after a netizen suggested that the members of the iconic K-pop group Girls’ Generation might regret not marrying and having children. This comment, made in an online forum, drew strong backlash from many who criticized the outdated perspective.
The Controversial Comment
The discussion began when a netizen shared a screenshot of a post from another online community. The original post asserted that the Girls’ Generation members, now in their mid-to-late 30s, might regret not starting families, suggesting it’s almost too late for them to have children. The post also speculated that because the members have ample financial resources, they might eventually marry “financially struggling, ordinary” men and choose a child-free lifestyle.
Backlash and Netizen Reactions
This comment immediately faced strong opposition. Many netizens criticized the post for its outdated views on marriage and parenthood. They emphasized that these are personal choices and that societal pressure to conform to traditional roles is no longer relevant. These netizens expressed their views through various comments:
“Why do you assume that everyone wants to have children and get married? Can’t you just accept that some people are different without labeling them as strange or making assumptions about regret? This is just outdated and presumptuous moralizing.”
“What a load of nonsense.”
“People who think like that must be in their 80s or 90s—what an outdated way of thinking.”
“It’s their lives. Let them do them and you do you.”
“Wow, they even think this way about Girls’ Generation? Their intelligence is completely shattered.”
“Seriously, what a joke. Sounds like the person making these comments is a financially struggling, ordinary guy. Wake up from your dream already.”
“Why would they marry a financially struggling, ordinary guy??? Makes no sense.”
“Even if Taeyeon lives past 100, she doesn’t need to get married.”
“Why would they regret if they have a lot of money?”
“Where do we start to explain to this incel?”
“Geez.”
“Why would Girls’ Generation date some ordinary guy who is struggling financially?”
“This is so funny… What a good joke!”
“Girls’ Generation members are rich and they have 8 friends to be with forever. Why do they need to get married?”
“I guess Jung Kyung Ho is that ordinary guy who is financially struggling. lol.”
“This person needs to worry about themselves. Not about Girls’ Generation.”
The reactions highlight a shift in societal attitudes towards marriage and family, with many advocating for individual choice and rejecting outdated expectations. The comments also question the assumption that financial stability is a primary motivator for marriage, especially for successful women like the members of Girls’ Generation. The mention of Jung Kyung Ho is likely a reference to Sooyoung‘s long-term relationship with the actor, implying that the original poster’s assumptions about the members’ potential partners are unfounded.
The Importance of Personal Choice
This online debate brings to light the ongoing conversation about societal pressures and personal choices, especially for women in the public eye. The strong reaction against the original post shows a growing acceptance of diverse lifestyles and a rejection of traditional expectations. The members of Girls’ Generation, having achieved significant success and financial independence, are seen as having the right to make their own choices about marriage and family without facing unwarranted criticism.
