[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Interesting WAPO article - 
"Millennials aren't having kids"
https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2023/11/03/millennials-only-children/
I love seeing the data on this.  It really follows closely what I see in my personal life among my friends.  What do you think are the reasons? I don't think it will turn around, millennial are rapidly approaching 40 or are already there.  [/quote]

It is very obvious to me ( Gen x)  Women are expected to earn and make a good living AND also be the perfect homemaker/wife/mom.  Until men step up women are smart not to fall into the trap.  [/quote]

And stay thin and have enthusiastic sex a min of 4x a week.[/quote]

That has been the expectation of women/wives/mistresses since time immemorial.  That's nothing new.[/quote]
what is new is that women have to do all of the above.  F* that.  If women have to be all that and up their game, then so should men.[/quote]

[b]Many men actually do. [/b]It wouldn’t be any better if the man were stepping up but his female partner was dropping the ball. [/quote]

Not really.
