    Amanda Smith Retweeted The New York Times

    Just once I want the “women aren’t having kids!” articles to talk to the “Millenials aren’t buying houses!”, “Billionares aren’t paying taxes” and “Health Insurance companies are no longer covering ER visits” articles because I bet the four could solve the mystery.https://twitter.com/nytimes/status/1405149672927289347 …

    Amanda Smith added,

    Women almost everywhere in the U.S. are delaying having children, resulting in profound changes to American motherhood. The birthrate is falling fastest in places with the greatest job growth as women prioritize education and careers. https://nyti.ms/2TD5PsR

        I say this as a woman who is currently freezing her eggs, an expensive process that my insurance will not pay for - I would have a kid on my own tomorrow but I can’t because the social structures I’d need aren’t there and financial impact of a kid is too huge.

        This going viral is an unexpected turn of events so I have nothing to promote except if you’re voting in the NY Mayoral election, don’t rank choice vote millionaires who’ve never voted or cops.

        I didn’t bother to read this article but am unsurprised that the NYT hasn’t expanded their vocabulary to account for people who can get pregnant but don’t identify as women.

        I tweeted this yesterday in response to another Tweet & news article & it applies here too: "The key words in this sentence are 'American women' and 'no codified support.' That describes womanhood & mothering in America."

        People are prioritizing education and careers because nobody can afford to pay for anything and they've been told they have to prioritize education and careers if they want to live comfortably.

        You need an education and a career now if you simply want to eat. And women especially so because of the pay gap.
