Doin’ my part. G-d does the rest.
Between feminism and MGTOW, I think the answer is a resounding “no”, Mike.
The EASIEST way to win a war is to recruit more troops.
Promote the ones already in service and go get some more.
I've preached that for forty years.
God gave us five, but we tried for a couple of dozen.
This piece ignores the high financial and emotional risks men endure when marrying or breeding; until they don’t need to fear some other guy living in their home with their former wife and their children, it ain’t gonna happen. NJ recently took up the issue of “alimony for life” because too many ageing white women were watching their unused eggs go to waste; it is just the tip of the iceberg in terms of what needs to change before most men are up for starting families again.
Part of the demographic issue is caused by economics. It costs thousands of dollars to have a baby who has zero problems. It costs thousands more to raise that child to adulthood. People are having fewer children so they can invest more in the ones they have. This is what happens to every developed economy. This is why socialist countries have an even worse demographic issue. Socialism distributes poverty and poverty means people will have fewer children, because, by whatever means, having a child is a choice.
Improve the economy so that average people feel well off and the problem of fewer children will resolve itself. Tax the heck out of them, and they will have fewer children.
Will the Trend Of Low Birth Rates Be Reversed?
Depends. Will the antinatalist propaganda continue from our overlords? Will feminism crawl back under the rock from whence it came? Probably not.
A neo pagan decadent culture cultivates narcissism. Feminism which is at its core an antifertility cult replaces religion for many vulnerable young women. They often realize what they squandered when their time as passed.
Less debt. Americans, and young people, are up to their eyeballs in it.
We are encouraged by the young families in our church with four or more children being brought up in the “nurture and admonition of the Lord.” (Ephesians 6:4). Many of them are being home schooled. That will be a blessing to our country.
Search for ‘Amish population boom.’

Pre-born genocidal propaganda, feminism, male-hating, and what is it with kids being too expensive? Explain this to me? Not willing to adjust the budget? Put multiple kids in a bedroom? Seriously. Explain it to me how the average family cannot afford 3 or 4 children.
Certainly not by me. I don’t have the slightest desire to have kids...never have, never will.
Russia reversed its declining birth rates from 1.5 up to roughly 2.0. This did this by no longer incentivizing abortion and encouraging a culture of life.
The nation of Georgia did so through a deliberate pro-life message of its religious leader, and he personally became the god-father of all third and later children born in the small country. Their birth rate is up despite a decline in illegitimate births.
Conversely, government inducements do NOT work. Nations with the most expensive perks from a year of parental leave to cash for kids don’t see a real spike in birth rates, simply accelerated arrivals of planned first and second children. The more they spend as a percentage of GDP, the lower the birth rate because, overall, the high tax rate and regulatory environment discourages large families.
This is why the MGTOW (Men Going Their Own Way) movement is gaining traction. It is the direct response by men to being pushed too far by feminists and a legal system that favors women over men, often destroying men's lives based solely on the word of the woman.
I think it was Gloria Steinem who said, "A woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle." Well, men are now saying that if a woman doesn't need a man, then perhaps it's time for her learn to swim on her own or sink to the bottom.
No. The education system. Feminism. The extreme advantage a woman has in court against a man. The education system guarantees that nothing can change so long as public schools exist. There is no possibility of improvement there. The left owns the teachers colleges. We are a feminine society in that females control the direction even if men are at the top politically. They are answerable ultimately to women.
