    Ah yes capitalism where the female partner needs to work and have no time to be a mom. Then politicians worry about dwindling young labor when it’s too late. Also banning porn and censoring sexuality… Shaming sex. Fertility is known to be higher when younger but there’s no support to allow the young fertile people to thrive so they work until retirement fate, brilliant capitalism
