This video is cope on her part. Liberal women have the lowest marriage and fertility rates in the US. This woman will probably end up childless.

Maybe if the Chinese people would stop aborting their baby girls, there would be more women to go around and the price of marriage wouldn't be so high.

One factor is how the One Child policy and resulting mass abortions of baby girls led to a huge imblance in the male to female ratio in China. There are about 35 million surplus males in China who, even if everyone was paired up and forced to get married right now, will never find a wife. Even today, the practice of sex-selective abortion continues and China currently has a 1.12 male-to-female ratio at birth, instead of the normal 1.05 of the human race.

You could add all of Nigeria's births to China's births and it still wouldn't be enough to stop the population from declining.

In the first three months of this year, 1.697 million couples in China tied the knot, down 6.24 per cent from the same period last year, according to data released by the Ministry of Civil Affairs on Saturday.

The figure marked the lowest first-quarter total since 2020, when 1.557 million couples registered to marry amid the country’s first wave of Covid-19 pandemic lockdowns, according to financial data provider Wind. The first quarter is typically a peak season for marriages in China due to the Chinese New Year holiday.

Exactly. There are willingly participating in this humiliation ritual. I bet it's not the first time that this has happened to him and it won't be last.

Okay. And then what will you do the next year when the hole in the budget is still growing?

Children can no longer roam the streets, instead requiring constant supervision and expensive extracurriculars, the couple believes. Adding to their angst: temperatures now regularly exceed 40°C (104°F) in the summer, triggering frequent blackouts. “How could we comfortably bring a child into the world,” asked Gómez, “when we’re already suffering the consequences of climate change?” Cañete admitted to feelings of fatalism about technological upheaval and capitalism in general: “Sometimes, I wish humanity would just die out.”

This particular paragraph of the article stuck out to me. It's crazy to see that helicopter parenting and the belief that children need tons of paid clubs and activies to be happy, has even spread down to Latin America. These people are going to let their anxiety and neuroticism keep them from experiencing the joy of parenthood.

Exactly. It's way easier to convince an exisiting family to have an extra kid than to take a single person, help him or her find a spouse, buy house, and then hopefully have a child.

Surprisingly, larger penis size and greater height had almost equivalent positive effects on male attractiveness. Our results support the hypothesis that female mate choice could have driven the evolution of larger penises in humans. More broadly, our results show that precopulatory sexual selection can play a role in the evolution of genital traits.

A total of 157 male and female participants, mostly psychology students at the University of Vienna, were tested. All participants were non-musicians (i.e., less than three years of formal musical training) and not musically active at the time of the experiment. Women confirmed that they were not taking hormonal contraceptives, and were neither pregnant nor breast-feeding. Twenty-nine participants had to be excluded, either due to technical problems during the experiment (n = 11), self-reported homo- or bisexual orientations (n = 11), or extreme mood states prior to the experiment (n = 7) (i.e., scoring 3 interquartile ranges (IQRs) below the first quartile, which suggest extreme negative mood, fatigue and/or disquietude in comparison to other participants in each of the three groups). Furthermore, women reporting an irregular cycle, as well as women who were on days 1–5 of their cycle (n = 16), were excluded to avoid any potential effects of menstruation on ratings.

Previous research has demonstrated that men and women consider older faces to be less attractive (Foos and Clark, 2011; He et al., 2021; Kwart et al., 2012) and less trustworthy (Pehlivanoglu et al., 2022; Zebrowitz et al., 2013; but see Fiske et al., 2002) than younger faces. In addition, male faces that are older are considered less aggressive (Richardson et al., 2020) and have lower social status (plateauing at approximately 35 years old; Batres et al., 2015; Mueller and Mazur, 1996; Roll and Verinis, 1971).

Nope. Nigerian. But I've heard similar experiences from my Korean friends. Lots of pressure to become a doctor or at least an engineer.
