'Remarkable' decline in fertility rates

There has been a remarkable global decline in the number of children women are having, say researchers.

Their report found fertility rate falls meant nearly half of countries were now facing a "baby bust" - meaning there are insufficient children to maintain their population size.

The researchers said the findings were a "huge surprise".

And there would be profound consequences for societies with "more grandparents than grandchildren".

    Please define what "being men" means and what this supposed duty is

    He makes it quite clear, it is about paying for sex. His name is "John".

    When sex is freely available does marriage have any real benefit other than having sex with the same person?

    When love comes down to how big your bank account is then is it so awful that people protect themselves.

    I cannot understand how these self-involved incels can be so self-involved and not understand how no one wants to be around their selfish selfs. Hoes before tillage, I always say! You can tell he is not married, because he thinks marriage is about sex. Not a man, a boy, probably a "Proud Boy". He will die alone, with his big bank account.
