Our conversation explores the decline in birth rates and the reasons behind women choosing to have fewer children, the societal pressure on women to have children, the economic and cultural factors influencing fertility decisions, and the gender divide in the discourse on birth rates. The conversation also delves into the implications of declining birth rates for the future of the West and the challenges of balancing population growth and sustainability, the role of social media and parenting culture in shaping fertility decisions, agency, femininity, parenting, and the impact of internet culture. We also discuss the construction of femininity as opposed to masculinity.
