this was from /r/all, this was a foreseen crisis that a lot of millennial and now zoomer women have been very unmarried and chronically single and will at some point become unable to have kids (approaching that point now?)

honestly I’ve never been super focused on becoming a parent, I thought it was something that might happen, but I’ve also been pretty single throughout life and considered an intentionally celibate life

It was really always just about meeting the right person, and I’ve met some “ok” people I’m just not sure who would be the “right” person for me

The parents of some of these kids seemed to give them no warning that they have a timeframe to have kids within though

    a lot of guys weren’t raised traditionally

    definitely true, I posted a couple things in the mgtow community about how men are basically expected to do four times as much work to be “traditional”. so yeah you’d have to expect to mostly date “losers” probably, because that’s what the system creates by default

    none wanted to get married

    as I posted in mgtow it also seems to maybe be a class issue, for example for some reason the working class doesn’t seem to value marriage

    it can be one of the worst mistakes financially

    I think a lot of sons have picked up on this from when their parents or people they’ve seen have gotten divorced, more than it being taught?

    And then you’re teaching women that they need to be the man and make the money and pay all the bills

    Yeah it was really split up by design, unfortunately a tragic temporary loss I guess for those who can’t find their way through the confusion, and leaves fewer people to form families and bring up kids for the future generations.

    I’m not sure what game the elites are playing, like there’s the one idea that they want there to be less people so they can have more of the world to themselves, the other idea is they want there to be more people in the world so there’s more workers, another thought in the opposite direction is maybe automation will get rid of a lot of jobs and less people will be needed, and on and on it can be confusing to figure out why people are doing things for what reason

      I like how you brought up it has to do with like a class issue. Because that is like so true man. Like back where I’m from like anybody who is like from any type of wealth like not even super rich people but you know people who are doing good like they did not like date or marry poor people at all it didn’t matter if it was like a man or a woman
