Again, people are acting like the USA is the only country that exists and ignoring all other States where having kids is much easier and where the birthrate is the same or lower.

US is at 1.66, Finland at 1.46. Finland offers much better social services and safety nets and socioeconomic equality than the USA, it also means women with more education, better access to abortion (even though the number of abortions is decreasing because they're not necessary in the first place if people have access to contraceptives, which they do in Finland), better access to a profession...

The more equal women are to men, the less kids they have... and I mean, why would people expect anything else? They're the ones who take care of the majority of the tasks related to raising children, given the choice they would rather have the same quality of life as men and get to do stuff for themselves instead of living for someone else!

Yep, and people are already doing it including me, stop having kids.
