The percentage of younger women in the U.S. who express a desire to migrate permanently has surged in the past decade.

But why?! The USA is a paradise for women! Isn’t that what Margaret Atwood taught us!?

    Small correction: I’ve never lived in the USA (though I came close to making that fatal mistake in 1999). I’ve lived in … ah … well … many countries, but my citizenship is Canadian.

    And yeah, Europe is a really nice place to live. I finished my secondary schooling in Europe and it was like going to school in Disneyland for me.

      That is literally a bullet dodged and a half. Europe has been feeling like a whole new world, one that makes sense and we don’t feel in danger. That does make it a Disney land huh? Lol

      For us we were born in the USA and it always felt like we were trapped. Born raised and lived in poverty. Being disabled didn’t help at all either. We worked for a while and we finally able to move with the help of our significant other. We’re still trying to get permanent residency but you will not see us in the USA any time soon.
