No. There are many parts of the world where the birth rate is well above replacement level. They're also the poorest parts of the world.

It won't lead to extinction, but it will lead to global poverty.
Because in the poorer parts of the world having kids is one of the few things they still can do. It's not like they are planning an annual vacation to Bali or playing golf every week-end.

And who is going to feed all those kids? Hence global poverty.

With the divorce rate so high why bother getting married and losing all you money in a divorce. It makes college debt look like a joke.
Then you still have to support her for many years after the divorce.
Fuck that. Stay single and happy.
BEST ADVISE ON THIS FORUM. 😍😍

The misogyny movement is turning off women.
There are also misandrists that turn men off.
The misguided ones make me howl 🤣.
Like how some members of metoo first worshipped then hate on Margaret Atwood since she claims to be not a feminist, but a humanist, as well as believing in dual process before the witch hunt starts.

On the flip side, militant feminism is sending many from the West east bound.
Watch out, being a straight man and saying this on an online platform will get you lynched, and perhaps even charged with God knows what for; simply for freely expressing yourself! Lmao.

Maybe if just a few would not hoard all the money it would not be a problem to feed all those kids.
They'd just produce even more kids to feed. End result, global poverty.

They dont live as nuclear families.
Kids possibly have a utilitarian function ensuring family wealth.
I guess the saying "it takes a village to raise a kid" is more true in those parts of the world. Quite literally.

Then the village should feed them. Not us.

Women don’t need men for support anymore. They don’t need men for their money or bank accounts or credit cards like back in the days of your grandparents and great grandparents.

Because of that, women are simply not settling or don’t see the point in being in a relationship when they pay 50/50 and still do 100% of the housework and child raising. Marriage benefits men now. Not women. It is basically voluntary subjugation for women to get married.
There might be merit in what you're saying, but when there is a divorce, the family court system and divorce laws significantly favor women.

So then the village isn't feeding them. We are.
I define "feeding them" as providing the majority of their food grains without which a majority of their population would starve.
What we give is mostly peanuts.
So we are helping but we aren't feeding them.

Not really. A lot men just fuck it up. Instead of staying in the home or continuing to pay the mortgage, tax and insurance, they skip off and stop. Thereby "abandoning" the home and therefore losing it.

They leave and don't pay support for the kids right away therefore making the court order it which is ordered based on income and child care time. Which most men are happy with alternative weekends. If men took their kids more, they would pay less. But taking their kids more means finding daycare and cooking dinner and doing homework and a lot of men don't want to deal with that.

A lot of men insist on the woman staying home with the kids after the woman gets pregnant. Instead of her going back to work. They see it as cheaper then hiring daycare because with the wife / it is free labour. Thereby putting the woman out of work and therefore owing in spousal support.

A lot of men get all excited when the break up happens and "enjoy freedom" while being seen as abandoning responsibility that the woman usually continues to handle from day one of the split.

I have helped quite a few men get custody out right or 50/50 split with child support being minimal and not requiring any spousal support but they did it the right way and right away after the split.

The laws are not gender specific. They are equal across the board and generally very fair but as I said, most men just fuck it up from the start of the split. Or even before with they operate. Any lawyer can tell you this.

Not really. Not anymore. The judges are being much more fair. Watching some women losing it on tic toc as they don't get preferential treatment is one of my guilty pleasures.

There has been a societal shift that we are finally seeing come to the end game. So much "me me me" has caused this. So much coddling of kids I stead of community raising and allowing adversity to happen.

Once the shit hits the fan hard it will raise another better generation.
