    You know, pretty much all of that website seems to be written by one guy. So I looked up some of his other work.

    the myth that women primarily work for reasons other than economics or family needs distorts reality https://medium.com/@daviddemos/women-under-siege-quick-notes-on-the-rights-assault-on-women-s-work-choices-and-family-formation-c3b27c6266e6

    It’s hard to draw conclusions. Who knows. But what I will say is that this guy clearly spends a lot of time thinking about how certain women can be coaxed into having more babies.

    Women in Europe, North America, and some countries in Asia.

      There is a common misconception that many women prioritize their careers over family relationships because they believe their self-worth comes from professional success. However, this myth is often perpetuated by right-wing extremists that seek to avoid addressing the need to improve material conditions for the majority.

      Maybe? But it seems his fundamental premises is right wingers screaming about culutre are bad

      From his Medium site, he apparently also thinks about food security in other countries

      It is hard to draw conclusions, but I fail to see smoke

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think “reputable news source” needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
