Young women were lied to for decades by the feminist elite, and their enablers in the media and medical professions. They were told to delay childbirth, until their career had been well established -- that they could take their time about getting pregnant. Only recently, has it been revealed to them that it is increasingly difficult (or extremely expensive) to become pregnant after 40. Also, little was said about the increasing probability of birth defects, as the mother ages.

Very good points.

These liars also reached the young men of that generation, and told them that sex was just for fun, and settling down and gettiing married was a backwards thing to do, a ball and chain on a young life meant for adventure.

Even if a young woman of that generation wanted to get married she had greater problems (than someone of 20 years earlier) in flagging down a young man her own age and steering him toward the altar.

Young people between the ages of 15 and 25 are in their prime courtship and marriage years -- but are they being encouraged in the direction of marriage at all?

Contemporary culture ridicules the woman who wants to conceive and bear a child -- "Oh, her biological clock is ticking." Tsk tsk. At the same time it tells the man, "You can have babies until you're a hundred" -- never mind that an elderly father won't be able to watch his children grow up, and let's not even mention that studies have shown a connection between advanced paternal age and mental disabilities in the children conceived (younger fathers make healthier babies).

The culture that tells men and women that these are their only options is a culture of death, not of life and hope.

Yes but those that chose that, wanted that. It appealed to them. So many others didn’t do that and that was their choice. Each are responsible for their own choices. Lots of people only listen to what they want to hear.
