        Just FYI, my wife has two masters degrees and still was able to get pregnant, give birth and help raise a child with me afterward. So apparently it is possible for women to have advanced university degrees and have kids.

        Incidentally, my mother also has two masters degrees, so apparently that was also possible in the 1970s without the population crashing.

          Nobody says it’s impossible.
          And my wife has a college degree and has no impetus to work at all.

          Her sister has masters and doesn’t want to work either .
          Riddle me that

            You seem to think suggesting women get advanced degrees means we also think people shouldn’t have babies.

            Also, you seem to be making some stupid “women don’t want to work” claim which is just nonsense.

              The only question I have - why advocate childlessness? U people seem to be making claims that if woman has kids - she’s automatically a baby factory and a servant.
              This is mindbiggling
