This suggests the mayor doesn't really understand why birth rates are low in the first place

If not being able to afford a house in my country is making me not to have children, what makes you think I'd go to another country in which I can't afford a house either to have children there?

Wait... Who decided it was even a problem with one gender in the first place?

What a surprise, the women are being blamed 😂😂🤣

Mayors are among the lowest level of politician and even then they're already completely asinine tools with zero ability to blame themselves or the system that signs their cheque.

Quick question: Do mayors in South Korea end like presidents? You know, jailed etc.
