A lotttttt of the red pill content here make some degree of reference to women needing to have children. The reasons cited are varied, it goes from “tradition” to “human nature” to “population growth”. Traditionally, malthus’s devil was unleashed upon mankind. It has been with us for over 99% of our history and that barrier is generally what people refer to when they say human nature.

BUT WE CONTAINED THE DEVIL. Human development was always matching with population growth, as such living conditions remained nearly constant since increases in efficiency were counterbalanced by an increase in people who used the same scarce resources.

POPULATION GROWTH DECLINING IS A GOOD THING BECAUSE THE RATE OF PROGRESS IS FAR HIGHER THAN THE CHANGE IN POPULATION. We can produce more (innovation and development) and spread it among less people (more for everyone else)

So in conclusion, not having kids is what is ultimately good for humanity. It should be a personal choice that is not affected by outside pressure.

Also fyi Malthus’s solution is literally the redpill dream. A heavily patriarchal society. Banning women from dating until 28. Etc etc.
