Re: Recession alert by fertility (none / 0)

China's 'one child' policy, combined with the cultural prejudice in favor of male children, has, as predicted, produced a demographic problem with too few women in the age cohort. Naturally the resulting problems become more exacerbated the higher one goes on any metric, intelligence, socially desirable appearance, education, wealth...

I certainly will not criticize any Chinese woman for her choices regarding reproduction. That is her choice and horny males can go fuck themselves if she is not interested in them.

"demographic problem" ? (none / 0)

for who? My child spent the summer of '16 with a Beijing family. The mother had five siblings.

Thus "men who actually WANT to be married and have children" are too horny. Eurotrash is not particularly attractive either.
