This might sound insane, and it’s a Swiftian sort of “modest proposal,” but I think that single women 18-40 should be prohibited from owning dogs. Hear me out... where I live (San Francisco)... I see countless young, childless women out walking their dogs, babying their dogs, etc. Clearly a maternal instinct is being partially fulfilled by pooch ownership. Take that away, and maybe these gals might get more interested in having a real human kid.
Oh good grief.
