Abortion Trends Before and After Dobbs

So is that data saying the overall desire to have kids is going down whether it is economically viable or not?

Nobody but a desperate Indian or Pakistani would consider having sex with that woman....but even they have some sort of standards....
So I doubt that the claim on her t-shirt is true....

Of course these days it could be an AI generated person....

And a propaganda piece created by far right-wing anti-abortion creeps. Fortunately there's usually someone for everyone in this world. If she is real I believe she is not alone.

The general trend although there will always be exceptions to the rule.

Okay, here's the thing. China has had 40 years of the "one Child" policy.

So of course, after decades of being told that having lots of kids is a bad thing, Chinese don't see kids as a major goal.

Now they've lifted the policy, but they are having to undo decades of conditioning.

Prosperity made the change possible. Tolerated but never really accepted by most. Given the preference for male heirs it had untoward effects on the Chinese population. There was no reluctance or campaign against abortion so they aborted millions upon millions of healthy female fetuses. 20.to 30 million fewer females in China and that imbalance cannot hope to be resolved. They still prefer male heirs.

Well, that's a pretty simple solution, the Chinese can just import brides from the Philippines or Thailand.

If she is a real person....
There exists a viable explanation for her behavior....
Psychosis from a childhood trauma.

Even the lack of physical touch is mind altering to adults but traumatic for children....
"Go hug your kid" was literally shouted at parents regularly after GenX got too old.
Didnt work....but it was worth a shot.

Yes snd no , they can also go out into the world and find brides everywhere to assure the yellow race wins the big long-term lottery. Plus their gay population could always use a boost. Only about 30 million.

A nations society telling its young adults what they should be doing is a recipe for failure. Just let them be and choose their own paths.
