Young women are better off with people their age because there are assholes like this who would exploit them, and maybe leave them as the woman ages.

For additional funsies, note that sperm quality declines with age. People in glass houses etc. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9848653/

In general, women are free to do as they wish because they’re self-determining beings and their value is not derived from being able to give birth. Same for men, tbh.

Also lol forget about the fact that many young people who have children are not guaranteed biologically fit children because it’s all about chance more or less.

This topic is a shitshow and the world is a poorer place for us having to discuss it!

However, the western world is also a richer, much more equal place than in the past, as a higher percentage of women can live as they want while most people will live and let live, than say a century ago, when the misogyny was internalized and all-pervasive, even institutionalized, along with other mental viruses like racism and homophobia.

What was universally taken for granted then is the opposite of what is taken for granted now.
Nowadays these imbeciles are publicly called out for what they are: imbeciles. And a majority of people are comfortable to freely, publicly agree.

What boggles my mind is how many people who agree, still manage to mentally dismiss these archaic and deformed attitudes of power and privilege that come from one side and one side only of the political spectrum, and insist that bOtH pArTiEs ArE tHe SaMe LoL aMiRitE, turning their backs on Election Day to the party that has struggled to ensure equality and keeps on struggling, against the constant resistance from all those mouth-breathers from the mentally inferior republican side.
