Biologically, women were meant to start having babies starting at around age 13. Humans invented adolescence which created a rule that babies were a no-no until marriage. Then women added further delays so they could have careers. Bottom line, many women these days are very late when it comes to having babies.

To: Cry if I Wanna

In the early days of our country, women would get married in their late teens and begin their family. If they were healthy they would have a baby at least every other year until their middle 40s. That is how a fruitful country does it.

To: Cry if I Wanna

I had to face some real idiots when pregnant at 25 with my first child in the tech field. The guys generally had no problem except “for the love of God, do NOT throw up in the clean room”.
The educated women, the feminists who were in their 30s and 40s, acted as if I were too young. The argument that I’d been married several years already was no help, it was as if I were compounding the matter by marrying “young”. It was funny asking a few of them if/when they’d ever have kids, because at ten years older, they were running out of time. While one woman did have children at 38, 39 and 42, that is the very rare exception.
The women on the production line though, in their 50s and older, do electronic assembly were generally very supportive. They’d typically had kids at 20, 25, 30 and so forth. To them, my decisions and life schedule were normal.

Too many feminists saying “have it all” pretty much mean “except kids” or “single trophy child”.
