Baby gap

Increasing numbers of women in the developed world who wanted to have babies didn't in their natural time
.
For reasons of career
.
Or they just wanted to have fun
.
Did not feel the desire
.
Then later decided that they wanted to have a baby
.
Turning to IVF they then had babies
.
Older parents
.
Wiser?
.
Maybe, maybe not
.
Other women have decided not to have babies at all
.
Just wanting to enjoy life without children
.
One unconsidered side effect of these choices is our altering demographics
.
The demographic profile in many western countries is changing
.
Not even meeting replacement levels
.
In general uneducated women are having more babies than those more educated
.
Meanwhile in China and India where boy babies are prized
.
Millions of women have terminated pregnancies when they were carrying girl babies
.
A huge and growing imbalance has occurred
.
Many young Chinese and Indian men will not be able to marry
.
Unless they find women partners elsewhere that is
.
In Africa, the Middle East and parts of Asia women are having more babies than their sisters in Europe or North America
.
Worldwide man is interfering with nature
.
And where man interferes with nature he usually creates a disaster one way or another
.
And gender imbalance is one sure way to provoke nature
