Elizabeth Brown and two of her law school friends all plan to freeze their eggs in the next few years if they’re still single. The 29-year-old associate at New York real estate firm Rosenberg & Estis loves her job and doesn’t want to tear herself away from it.

“Knowing that you can freeze your eggs, it takes so much of the pressure off,” she says of the need to go on a random date. “I’d rather go home and have a glass of wine and watch Netflix.”
