Dad gets slammed by women after telling them to have kids before they’re 30 because after that ‘90% of your eggs are dead’

Yes, but you do realize this thing called surrogacy and IVF exists, thus scientific advances make it possible for gay couples to become parents? These are also things that enable heterosexual couples to become parents also, especially in the more advanced childbearing years.

 

And I hate to be the bearer of bad news but men's sexuality peaks when they are about 18 and then it's downhill. So, there's that.

Looking at the US and the UK

 

Far fewer people getting married

Far fewer in long term relationships

Women giving birth later and later

Those who are married/ in long term relationships much more dependent on both working

Change in social expectations.

Significant increase in cost of children, significant reduction in benefit in having children

 

Just to get us going.

 

     The actual cost of delivery is a major factor. People in their early 20's with student loan debt usually don't have 5K sitting around for their share of the hospital bill. You could also throw in the fact that women only get 6 weeks off for maternity leave and then it's unpaid leave or not working at all. Back in the day mom stayed home and raised the kids, and dad put in an extra shift or 2 at work to cover the extra bills. People can't afford to do that anymore. Couples both have careers because they need to. That's what life costs now. You can't always afford to fit a kid into all that.
