+1 This is becoming sadly common with this generation. I have 21 cousins (aged 50-70) and between us, 40 kids, and yet there are only six grandchildren, and the ones young enough to still have kids all express some version of not wanting to marry or have kids. I'm hearing similar things from lots of friends.

What is going on?[/quote]

Women are waking up that's what.  They don't want to have to work a job and then take on the second job of raising kids and taking care of the home and emotional stuff.  Society still expects women to care for the family.  Men think because they are doing a tiny bit more they should get a medal.

Women are "waking up" to weeding themselves out of the gene pool.  Know quite a few female professionals with no children or maybe one.  Their values aren't being transmitted to the next generation while the moms who do the domestic work and have four kids have a much better shot of being represented in the future.  This problem self-corrects in the long run. [/quote]

Yes and the population will continue to get dumber and dumber. The professional women are smart.  Who cares about gene pool? We are not blue-bloods. [/quote]

Wait, did you evet learn about evolution, natural selection, genetic drift? Any of these things. The traits of people who reproduce more will become dominant traits. If women of lower intelligence reproduce more, we will have many more people who inherit lower intelligence. This has nothing to do with "blue bloods." In fact, it's best they stop reproducing so we can stop all that inbreeding.[/quote]
