Its not for everybody.
GB shouldn’t worry as long they keep importing fecund young Mohammedans
The current generation want the traditonal teen years of focusing on fun, socializing, limited responsibilities, etc. extended into their 30’s.
Oh, you know - why would you want these gals to have kids, anyway? They would be bad mothers with bratty kids. If they don’t want to reproduce, that’s fine with me.
Yes I’m sure part of the reason is women not wanting children, at least at younger ages, due to establishing careers.
And people often say you can delay having children till the mid to late 30 age range. Which is true to a point, but, many women have trouble conceiving the older they get.
The fact is, ease of conception or abilities in that area of life, decline in both men and women with age.
The west (and East Asia) is heading towards rapid depopulation.
Covid (and government response) magnified long-trends that were already in place
Combine massive debt, with abortion, with feminism, with socialism, with entertainment, wth drugs, with denial of Christianity - and the developed world is heading into a death-spiral.
Traditionally, the age at which women first give birth descends through the generations. If a woman had a daughter at 18, that daughter would likely have her first child in her teen years. If a woman first gave birth in her mid or late 30s, that girl would likewise delay childbearing. As social and economic factors make it more difficult to raise a family when young, the pattern is changing, and women are universally delaying motherhood, as do their children after them.
Younger British women, in general, drink like fish and want a “weekend break” vacation all the time. It shouldn’t be s surprise they are not procreating.
I’ll be 30 in a few years and I can vouch for them, it’s not easy to find good husband and father material. Most males in their 20’s are still children and live like children. Even those who are not so deficient, are leery of marriage and responsibility.
I’ve wanted a big family, maybe 5 or 6 children. I’ve scaled it down to 3 or 4 now. :(
Strange game; the only way to win is not to play at all.
Being a Boomer I can see the difference in women today. They have to be every bit as manly as a man. They must compete with men. You can’t do that if you have a baby.
As for career and having fun, some of us are already financially independent, but can’t even date much because it’s the males who make “having fun” a priority. I’m not an inflatable toy.
The schools and universities, in addition to pushing all manner of Leftwing propaganda, also find time to heap derision on “breeders”. It has become a cliche that animal babies are cute and only human babies are homely. When I argued against this “truism” I was told that maybe mine were adorable but “we’re talking about most babies”. And this was at a deep South campus (Auburn).
It’s not just a UK problem. Here in the US, single mothers account for 42% of the national birth rate. Despite the introduction of birth control in 1961, abortions skyrocketed to its peak in the mid 2010s. The national divorce rate is near 53%, 80% of which are filed by women for largely non-existential reasons.
Looking at all that, it highlights the fact that there’s some weapons-grade irresponsibility when it comes to women and decision-making. And we wonder “where did all the good men go?” while the domestic marriage rate is at never before seen lows and continues to go lower.
Just wait until we start hearing about how no one in government is willing to even consider and/or examine what the new birth rate is amongst VAXXED females. They will examine any data under the sun to beat and torture it to get to their ‘conclusions’ but they will never do this.
Good, 75 percent of them are unfit to be parentsanyways.
I see a future of boxed wine and cats.
