I'm a woman in her 50's with a "cool" profession and looking back over my life, nothing---NOTHING---comes close to feeling as right to me as being a mother, and a wife, and making a home. Too bad the home is a dusty mess because the cool career takes up most of my time and energy. At least we had the opportunity for me to take a long break from work when our two kids were young. And I've told our daughter (23) to not waste her twenties with unsuitable boyfriends like I did. You can't guarantee finding the right spouse and having kids, but to the extent you can plan and have these goals, having your kids by the time you are in your early 30's would be ideal.

RigelDog: good for you. you are one of the women that has been able to pursue your career goals and answer the maternal drive. My wife raised four children mostly by herself and managed to get a bachelor's degree when she was sixty. For her it was family, children, home life first, career interests second. Us men have it easier. We go out and work, provide, protect, maintain a dwelling, oversee in a general way the affairs of the family. There are few conflicts because of job versus family. It is the women that have hard choices to make.

No matter how clever and cool we all are, how sophisticated and "mature" we all want to be, there is no ignoring the basic biological drives. We are, after all, merely clever monkeys. I easily compare us to the behavior of other animals when it comes to propagating the species and surviving against any and all threats we encounter.
