Of course it exists. It’s well known that most of a woman’s eggs are gone by the age of 30. Currently I feel like I am wasting time because I am in my biological prime so it’s the best age to have a baby biologically. It becomes increasingly difficult to conceive after 30 and even more after 35. A pregnancy that occurs when a woman is 35 or over is medically termed a geriatric pregnancy - that makes it high risk.
why would you wait until 35 when you can have a baby at 30? Most women nowadays have kids at 30. And no, its not extremely difficult to conceive at 30. You're just over exaggerating. My mother had me at 37 and all the women in my family gave birth in their 30s
I would never wait until 35. I am having all my kids before 30. I am not exaggerating lool I was a science student and I used a medical term. Your mother had you in advanced maternal age.
Having kids at an older age means they were the product of a lower quality egg. The quality of your eggs worsen with time. All the women I know gave birth in their 20s.
Also when you say 30s then there’s a difference between early 30s and late 30s and whether it was their last child they had in their late thirties or their first child. It doesn’t always happen but the risk of the child having congenital diseases like downs is increased and the mother is more likely to experience miscarriage and other complications like gestational diabetes as opposed to a young mother. My aunt was 31 when she had her first son as opposed to my mother who was 22 when she had me. My mother had a normal delivery with no extra complications whereas my aunty developed gestational diabetes (which only occurs in 5% of pregnancies) and she had a C-Section. My aunty
developed type 2 diabetes a few months post-partum.
Women in 30s now having more babies than younger moms in US

More American women are having babies in their 30s than their 20s
www.marketwatch.com/.../american-women-are-having-babies-later-and-are-still-conflicted-about-it-2017-05-19
I think giving birth in early 30s is safe. But giving birth in late 30s is risky. But I think you're totally exaggerating the entire thing. My mother birthed me in her 30s and I turned out fine. All my cousins were birthed by 30 something yr old moms too. All of them are doing fine.
At 33 mine is definitely ticking, as loud as Big Ben. You only have so many years where your eggs will remain fertile before they start to degrade and then finally, for the most part, crap out when Menopause hits. It's just natures design as most women can't go through a pregnancy without complications after a certain age.
see? this is why you're so stupid. why would you worry about being too infertile to have a child when you are still of child bearing age? you're STILL FERTILE!! don't act like you are infertile.
If you really wanted a baby, you would have one.
I'm not going to be a single mother with no husband. What is stupid about that? There are enough single mothers in this world as it is who screw around , get pregnant, get dumped, and wind up on their own. That's no way to raise a baby.
Not all children born to single moms will turn into criminals. I knew of many kids raised by single moms who grow up into well adjusted adults.
Who said they would turn into criminals? I mean what?
there is a stereotype that all kids born to single moms turn into criminals.
Menopause is one of the reasons women live longer than men, don’t diss it.
@Aphrodite801 who the hell cares about menopause if I already have kids? its just completely insane to me how FERTILE 34 yr old women complain that they are worried about being too infertile for kids. If you want a family, just have one. Just take a look at the idiocy
Them saying it’s ticking is so cringe, and @Daniela1982 regardless of age many women go through complications of pregnancy. A 40 year old woman can have a healthier baby than a 23 year old, and many older women have had healthier children than younger women. Just depends on who you are.
I think you mean they turn out to be gay, not criminals.
@Aphrodite801 Actually most women of the same age die before men. The results of raising little brats. And the biggest cause of death in women is a heart attack.
@aliali8 I said 33 and the clock is ticking. I didn't say the alarm rang. Geeeze!
Women of the same age live longer than men of the same age. Women on average literally live longer than men, 🤣🤣 damn you clearly don’t know what you’re talking about. Stop spreading false info. Girls who are reading this, don’t take any crap she says seriously.
Did you know that women who birth in their 30s tend to live longer?
@Aphrodite801 I'm speaking from my family history. Women died from mid 50's -mid 80's and men from late 60's to three who got over 100. It could be just where they live that effects their health.
@daniela1982 Everything boils down to genetics. My uncle smoked since he was 16 and he lived healthy even until 80 years old. My father loved eating sweets his whole life. He never ever developed diabetes. Your fertility has to do with genetics too. Some women who are fertile into their 40s due to their genetics.
Genetics can indeed deal us bad hands. Like those girls who can eat anything they want and not gain a pound. My grandma was like that and said she had a straight gut - food passed straight through. I on the other hand have to bust my gut keeping weight off. You have women who are as hairy as Sasquatch and others who just have hair as fine as frog hair. Boobs, dicks, everything is governed by genetics.
@daniela1982 And this is whats so sickening about fat shaming in our society. I have known people who barely eat and yet they are obese. I have known girls who lose 20 pounds over 2 weeks simply by working out 45 minutes a day. For me, I do the same workouts and diet, I end up losing 5 pounds.
Yes, and so do men have it. If you dont want to have retarted disabled kids, stay away from old used guys and get a fresh young man. Older guys have low quality sperm and that is why they are also low quality when it comes to biology
I dont understand why so many guys act like they dont hit the wall and think their sperm quality will be the same when they get older. The older you get as man, the shittier your sperm get. That is why i also think it is healthier to marry before 30s and so it annoys when men after 30s suddenly want to marry a young woman. Where were you when you were young and fresh and not low quality? Lol these men want young women to deal with their used old fugly low quality ass since even women after 30s dont want them and they know young women tend to be more naive and so more to be get fooled and even statistics show that such marriage between a young person and very older person does not last long.
Okay so a couple of things one- it gets harder for women to have children as they age even if they’re fertile most women start out with over 300,000 eggs But by the time they’re in mid 30s only have a few hundred left guys
two- do you really wanna be in your 40s running up behind a 3 year old do what you can while your young
three- in terms of looks women peak around anywhere from 18 to 27 from that point on you only get less attractive while men’s can be anywhere from around 30 to 50 yes 50
four-As a young guy I’ve heard plenty of young women complain about how young guys aren’t mature enough or financially stable enough to have children and we do have kids the women just end up being single parents plenty of women prefer older men just like plenty of men prefer older women
what makes you think that young women want old men? Statistics show that women only like to marry guys 3 years older than them, not 13 years older.
I think you’re butt hurt. Because the average age gap is just 3 years.
Empirical evidence has also accumulated in support of women's preferences for older men, and as you might expect, the data often overlap with those data supporting men's preferences. As this sample of Conway-Beam and Buss's (2019) review suggests:
Cross-culturally, women report wanting partners who are (on average) 3.5 years older than them.
In online dating, women make the first contact with older men at a greater than rate they do younger men.
Marriage records show that women are marrying men who are older than they are by about 3 years.
www.google.com/.../what-we-know-about-age-gaps-in-dating-love-and-marriage%3famp
en. m. wikipedia. org/.../Age_disparity_in_sexual_relationships
Most common age gaps being 1-4 years, not 10-14 years.
So no, most young women are not attracted to you, grandpa.
As a woman, I can have kids by the time I am 40, regardless if I get married or not.
Men can't have kids by the time he's 40, unless he's married. After 40, he is past his prime, his looks fading. White hairs growing, balding heads, gaining weight, sagginess, wrinkles, dull skin. No young woman would be attracted to him so his chances of having children growing slimmer every yr that he gets older.
Even women in their 30s don't want to date guys in their 40s.
Why Do Women in Their 30s Not Want to Date Men in Their 40s?
www.evanmarckatz.com/.../why-do-women-in-their-30s-not-want-to-date-men-in-their-40s
A woman in her 30s will only go for a guy in his 40s , if she can't get anyone younger or better.
The reason why I asked this question was not about "Can women have kids at 60?"
The reason why I asked this question is because I see a lot of these FERTILE 35 yr old women worrying about not being able to have kids. why the living fuck would you worry about not being able to have kids, IF YOU'RE STILL FERTILE?
Women never have to worry about not being able to have kids. We are baby machines. Sperm is not hard to get. Why would you worry about infertility or menopause?
Only men have to worry about never having kids since he has absolutely no control over when he finds the right person to marry.
www.evanmarckatz.com/.../why-do-women-in-their-30s-not-want-to-date-men-in-their-40s
Okay first off I don’t think you understand much about male anatomy so let me say this first from the time a guy hits puberty in some cases even before our bodies never stop making sperm never men can have children at any age
Also if what you said is true women in their 40s would have to date younger men because guys their age aren’t fertile according to you
A woman can only get pregnant once a year while men can have multiple in the same year our bodies are made to accept all comers male fertility is infinite it only decreases as we age not stop
A woman can become pregnant when she’s 40 or even older hell Janet Jackson had another at 50 but it becomes more difficult as a woman ages a man could fuck you with no condom and ejaculate inside of you and you still wouldn’t be pregnant where as it’s guaranteed for a young woman
I really don’t care if women want to be with older men or not but I do know this women are fucking crazy and crazy people like to do crazy shit like marrying or fucking old men and it doesn’t matter if they are attracted to them or not are you familiar with the term golddigger plenty of those running around plenty of them love old dudes
Did you know your ph balance changes too as you age making it harder for a sperm to make it to one of the few eggs you have left at 40 your vagina will literally be too toxic for sperm to survive
And why do you want to have a foot in the grave before you have kids anyways all the statistics aside raising a child is hard enough when your able bodied and young do you really think it’ll be easier when your old children are a handful your gonna be 60 by the time that baby graduates they won’t even have really gotten they’re life started and your too old to be of any assistance if it were better to wait till your were 40 something to have children we wouldn’t start our reproductive stage so early in life your supposed to have kids while your young
what makes you think a 30 yr old woman should be worried about never having kids? A woman can have kids any time before she turns 40. Only men would have to worry about deteriorating sperm quality since he has no control when he finds the right person to marry. Meanwhile he gets older and uglier , sperm quality worsening every year that he gets older. Why would a young woman be attracted to old man?
Dude you sound silly sperm quality stays the same the only thing that deteriorates is the number we can make men can have children at any age as long as we have balls they never stop making sperm
And again women start losing their looks way before men why would a guy wanna fuck an old bitch when he can fuck a hot young one Also who tf wants to be old as hell trying to raise kids it’s any exhausting task that the elderly shouldn’t be handling
Older fathers associated with increased birth risks
From the data of more than 40 million births, scientists at Stanford have linked paternal age to birth risks, and even risks to the mother’s health.

Father Time: Children with Older Dads at Greater Risk for Mental Illness
www.scientificamerican.com/.../
A mans fertility doesn’t begin to dwindle until anywhere between the ages of 40 to 45 While a woman’s is anywhere from 30 to 35
So by the time a mans biological clock starts ticking a woman’s has already been declining for 10 years before
I’m not saying it’s better to have kids when your older I’m saying it’s stupid that you literally wanna wait till the last few fertile eggs you have left to try and have a baby it’s gonna be much much harder compared to if you did it in your sexual prime
Mens fertilty actually starts declining at 35.
here's the research:
They found that the most significant factor contributing to probability of pregnancy was the age of the male partner. After six cycles, men aged over 35 years had fertility rates of 25% compared with fertility rates of 52% in men aged younger than 35 years old , representing a 52% decrease in fertility rate.
www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/.../
if I were to pick a husband 38 vs 33 years old. I would always pick the younger one.
NEWFLASH! Younger people are more fertile! Shocker😑
Mens sperm and fertility start declining at age 35, not 40. There are studies that have proven it.
I just had my second child at age 40 in 2020. Lock down happened my third day back from maternity leave.
But in all seriousness, you can have kids all the way up to menopause and forcing women to worry more about it is regressive and counterproductive. Yes it’s a gamble to wait, but odds are more in our favor than we think. Women used to have 10 plus kids, from puberty to menopause. Unless you are already in menopause, you can still have kids.
Yes it exists. You can have kids almost up to 40 and later, its just that it becomes more and more difficult in your mid 30s.
Thats why you see a lot of women now getting married around 29 or 30, because you have fun in your teens and early twenties, educate yourself, hopefully meet a good man to marry around 25 if you haven't already, build a career and then have 1-2 kids but even waiting until your 30 is a risk, your essentially playing the odds that when you decide you want kids that it will happen.
No matter what the media and feminists tell us women can't have it all, somewhere something has to be sacrificed or compromised and the clock is always ticking.
you obviously didn't even read my question. And nobody cares about marriage. Marriage ends up in divorce anyways
I read. Just have a different opinion.
I'm a feminist and I can also have children. whats your problem?
Nobody is stopping you. Have as many as you want with whoever you want.
yea well I have a career and many kids. Better than you, a divorced housewife struggling to make ends meet.
Well I wish all the best 👍
I wish you all the best too because you’re gonna need good luck more than me
Well thank you very much 😊
Women in 30s now having more babies than younger moms in US
www.cnbc.com/.../...s-than-younger-moms-in-us.html
Its the same here and the birth rate has dropped 10% in the last 10 years.
@hanoi_jane00 hey, Can I know your opinion on a topic in your DM?
Yes. A woman cannot have kids after age 60, so the biological clock definitely exists. You can have children later in life if you want but they will be more likely to be autistic or have other birth/health defects. That's not me being rude, that's the statistical math.
Women don’t have to worry about. Women can pick to have kids at 32 or 39. She’s in charge
Is it necessary to be married to have children? No, of course not. But given the incredible disadvantages it gives to the child (ren) in question, it's damned irresponsible. You're also not doing yourself any favors; children are an incredible strain and drain on personal resources; there's a REASON we've been pair bonding since before we became monkeys, let alone apes, let alone humans.
what is the point of getting married if your country has a 46% divorce rate? almost half of all marriages do not end up working out. even if you do get married, your kids will end up seeing daddy once a month, after divorce
For you? Precious little. I'm with you when it comes to questioning the value of marriage in a society with so little respect for it as an institution. But kids change the priorities. The average length of a first marriage that ends in divorce is eight years (here in the US, anyway); a kid who grew up with Dad in the house for eight years is still a lot better off than one who never knew him.
Fathers are good to have but not necessary. Just have some decent male role models in your child's life and the kid will do just fine.
No. The kid'll do better than one with no male role model, but a "role model" is not the same thing as a "parent".
Its kinda like saying would you like ice cream or would you also like sprinkles/ gummy bears on top? Having a male role model is enough for a kid to grow up just fine. The extra sprinkles/ gummy bears on top are just accessories. Its not a crucial element.
... And that's how you wind up with a society full of mentally unstable people with an exploding prison population. Good luck.
That won’t happen if you raise your kid in rich neighborhoods and elite schools where everyone is of good moral standing in society.
Haha, "sperm quality."
Honey, the difference is men are producing a new batch of sperm every day of their lives, while all your eggs were there since the day you were born.
It becomes much harder to conceive as you get older. And another point is the chances of birth defects go up exponentially. It's still something like 1%, but why take that much of a chance with something that important?
If the real reason you're not having kids is because you can't find someone maybe it's time to put in a little more effort instead of electing to be a single mother which doesn't exactly put the children on the best trajectory for success.
And really... do you want to be in your 40s changing diapers, trying to play and entertain the children, by yourself, while working full-time?
do you really think I'm gonna have kids at 39 when I can pick to have kids at 32? Why would I be afraid of birth defects? Men would be more afraid of birth defects. Because he's sitting there, waiting and begging years and years for any young woman to pay attention to him , as he turns old and ugly, and sperm quality deteriorates. The older and uglier he gets, the less likely the chance of him having kids
Lol, so mad that you're willing to overlook biology.
@aliali8 You might want to review the actual physiology on this subject. You are misinformed about some facts.
@OlderAndWiser
Men's sperm quality decreases after 35
www.business-standard.com/.../...3072600099_1.html
@celtero
Men who delay starting a family have a ticking 'biological clock' -- just like women -- that may affect the health of their partners and children, according to researchers.
www.sciencedaily.com/.../190513081409.htm
Fertility of sperm does decrease, to some extent, with age, and older men have a greater chance of producing a female child, but I am not aware of any studies that link a man's physical attractiveness with his fertility or birth defects in offspring.
@OlderAndWiser because overwhelming majority of us young women don’t find weight gain, balding, white hairs , sagginess, dull skin, erectile dysfunction to be attractive.
Yea I like older men but like 3-5 years older. Not 13-15 years older. Just cus I like 3-5 years older , it doesn’t mean I like old uncles or grandpas
I understand all of that but it doesn't respond to my observation that "I am not aware of any studies that link a man's physical attractiveness with his fertility or birth defects in offspring."
@OlderAndWiser physical attractiveness and aging does have to do with fertility. Men’s sperm quality start to deteriorate by 35. I also find that 35 to be the last year of a mans prime in terms of looks. That’s why I don’t date men over the age of 33. After 33, you will see weight gain, balding , his penis might not shoot far enough, less ejaculation.
Hmm, "Business Standard." I wonder if they're scientifically reputable. Weird, the article makes a claim and neglects to qualify how it "deteriorates" and doesn't link to the paper corresponding with the study. At least the second article links the study, but it doesn't say if they excluded men who had partners closer to their age. Because if a 40 year old man and a 40 year old women have a baby who's to say which parent is more likely going to be responsible for the child developing a disorder?
I guess I can just throw away everything I learned in my genetics course.
Like... women literally run out of eggs in their 50s and you wanna pretend men and women are the same. It's starting to get amusing. There's guys that have children in their 90s, and for a woman to even come close she has to get donated eggs artificially fertilized and placed inside of her. Not even sure why you're so butthurt about it when you plan to have kids before 40 anyway... If you refuse to accept it, then prove it wrong! Wait to have kids until after you're 45 for all I care.
Okay, but. . . I understand all of that but it doesn't respond to my observation that "I am not aware of any studies that link a man's physical attractiveness with his fertility or birth defects in offspring."
@OlderAndWiser
This article is a research article conducted by Rutgers university. Very reputable
Older fathers put health of partners, unborn children at risk
Men who delay fatherhood should consult their doctor and consider banking sperm before age 35
www.sciencedaily.com/.../190513081409.htm
@OlderAndWiser i don’t think a man generally looks better as he ages. Might just accept the fact that your sperm quality doesn’t stay the same throughout life.
And WITF does your physical appearance (other than the signs of aging) have to do with sperm quality? You keep suggesting that being ugly means your sperm is defective and you will father mutant babies or some such nonsense.
@OlderAndWiser Physical attractiveness tend to deteriorate with age. Don't pretend you don't know what im talking about. You think people get more good looking with age?
Your comments are ambiguously worded. It appears that you are talking about getting older and being ugly as two separate factors that make a man's sperm deteriorate.
@OlderAndWiser Well i think you're just trying to cause some trouble on here because you just don't like the idea of your looks and sperm deteriorating as you age. Trying to start a petty fight about something thats completely unrelated doesn't make me wrong in any way shape or form.
You are right. I must be totally wrong.
It does. We are born with all the eggs we’ll ever have, roughly 1 million. By the time we’re in puberty they’re down by a little over 50%. The average female would have around 2-3% left by the time she turns 40. It’s not impossible to conceive later in life but it’s harder because there’re fewer eggs left and their quality decreases with time too. Also, there’s a higher risk for both the baby and the mother.
Kids do a lot better with two parents. Purposely becoming a single parent is unfair to the child.
If you’re so dysfunctional that you can’t find a good partner you’re probably gonna do a bad job of raising them too. They’ll grow up to be as dysfunctional as you are. Part of the reason for the high divorce rate is the number of people who are unable to find or maintain a happy, healthy marriage, often because they were raised by parents with the same problem.
Why would you have to settle for just some dude? You’re 25. You’ve got about 5-10 years to find a guy before the clock really begins to tick.
dumb shit, when half of all marriages end up in divorce, there is no point in getting married. After divorce , your kids will only see daddy once a month due to a court ruling.
And plus, my clock never ticks. Because I would already have 2 kids by the time I turn 40. If you're a 40 yr old man, no wife, no kids. Your looks fading, sperm quality deteriorating, no young woman is gonna find you appealing enough to have kids with you.
That means that half of marriages survive. Half of marriages divorce because dysfunctional people marry each other. When healthy people marry each other they succeed.
Your clock does tick. Everybody's clock ticks, including men's. I agree that most of the men who think they're gonna marry someone half their age are delusional.
My clock doesn’t tick because I definitely will have kids in life. YOUR clock will tick because you’re sitting there waiting and begging for absolutely any woman to pay you any attention as you get old and ugly and sperm deteriorating
Young women of child bearing age do not tend to be attracted to old guys out of their prime. So the longer you wait , the lesser chance you will find a young woman to have kids with
You don't know anything about me so I'm not sure why you're being defensive and making assumptions.
I have 3 kids already. My clock isn't ticking.
Well you’re male so obviously you’re offended that women have an advantage over men.
The only reason a man would be offended would be if he struggle to find a woman/get laid and/or was not in a happy relationship. That's not a problem for me. I also don't think that women have an advantage. Women have an advantage when it comes to having an easier time finding people who want to fuck them, but that's about it. The rest of this is a cope.
Haha it sounds like you can’t admit that women are garuanteed kids in life.
Yea men find it hard to even get a one night stand with a woman so that even makes his chance of having a child even lower.
I can admit that. It has always been that way throughout our entire history. In the past only 40% of men reproduced in comparison to 80% of women. Still, it's also about the quality of the parenting and how the children turn out. Just having kids isn't a win if they grow up to be fuck ups because you didn't parent them properly.
It depends on the guy. The average guy? Sure, they struggle. Again hasn't been a problem for me.
@aliali8 Lol every girl i found attractive and wanted to sleep with, I got a chance to fuck. And managed to seduce them.
Girls play all this hard to get crap. Like their shit doesn't stink... but their wrong.
Once you know how to figure out women. They chase you for sex. As a guy,
Theirs 2 types of guys out there those that get layed and those that don’t.
I've learned no women like weak ass men, Wich a lot of guys are. Take charge, play her game against her. And ul get layed.
Also their is women that do like older men.
I can and have picked up girls my age
But can also sack 🛏 an 18yo. If i wanted to also.
And not all women can have kids. So if you can be greatful. I know of a lot of women who struggled with firtleity issues.
@AN1995 yea women do like older men. but only on average about 3.5 years older, not 13.5 years older.
www.psychologytoday.com/.../what-we-know-about-age-gaps-in-dating-love-and-marriage
Empirical evidence has also accumulated in support of women's preferences for older men, and as you might expect, the data often overlap with those data supporting men's preferences. As this sample of Conway-Beam and Buss's (2019) review suggests:

In online dating, women make the first contact with older men at a greater than rate they do younger men.
Marriage records show that women are marrying men who are older than they are by about 3 years.
So... according to statistics, if you're 45, the best you can get is probably a woman who is 42. So, still no kid.
@AN1995 and women either take birth control or use condoms. No woman is gonna want some random guy's baby from a one night stand. Only sluts would but normal women won't.
Works both ways dont get suckered into the gender baiting questions where people are as a whole just angry yes both genders are in theory on clocks where the chances of having a child get harder or chances for complications arise but at the end off the day there are many ways to get around this anyways these days just live your life
In some women, absolutely. In others, not at all. At age 36, I literally have zero desire to push a giant melon out of my hoo-ha then spend all my time, energy, and money trying to keep it alive for the next 18 years. That said, I love kids. Just other people's who I can hand back whenever I want haha
Well if you have a child after the age of 40, there's an increased risk of the child being born with autism or having a miscarriage. Most women want to avoid that risk. Having said that, it's perfectly possible to have a completely healthy child when you've passed that age.
Yes it does exist. Even at my age it's getting harder to get pregnant compared to just a few years ago when I easily got pregnant. Trust me have kids early cause the pain of infertility is no joke.
I guess you can't have kids then. You past the prime. Don't have kids at 24 because your baby will have down syndrome.
I can still get pregnant it's just hard for the babies to stick. I will continue to try till I'm around 30 then stop since I wouldn't wanna risk birth defects. I have two healthy children so I'm happy with that
Infertility is defined by trying for 6months to a year without having a successful pregnancy. It's not acutally someone who can't have kids. Many women with infertility still have children.
Well I’m sorry you’re so infertile at the age of 24. You sound like a 24 yr old with the fertility of a 35 yr old. I’m 25 and It’s really not that hard for me to get pregnant
Have you ever even been pregnant? Lol
I had an abortion in the past
My fertility is normal for my age. Fertility doctor said it's most likely stress induced from the pandemic that is making it harder to get pregnant this time around. My first two were complete accidents so I didn't have to try like I do this time
Well abortion must have been a hard choice to make. I almost aborted my first but decided to keep him since it was always my dream to be a mom.
Do you know abortions are bad for reproductive health? Abortions actually can reduce your chances of getting pregnant the second time. This has been know to the Asian traditional medicine for centuries.
On average, 24 yr olds should find no problems in getting pregnant. But of course don’t expect to get pregnant after having sex once
I've never acutally had a abortion but yeah they're probably bad for reproductive health.
You'd be surprised how common it is for women in their 20s to try for years and not end up pregnant yet still be completely healthy. I follow a lot of ttc groups and the majority of them are younger women.
It’s uncommon for young women to struggle for years to have a child. Unless she has PCOS or some disease.
Most young women in 20s aren’t even married
I've talked to 100s of women in there teens and 20s that are ttc. Some are married and some aren't. There are some crazies that search out a guy just to get pregnant and ditch him after. If you're actually interested I could give you the apps and websites I find these women that ttc
I think marrying in your 20s is a terrible idea. If you want to marry, at least marry after 27. 20s is supposed to be a time for people to enjoy their youth, hang out with friends, and see what kind of men they like, not get tied down to 5 kids stuck in a house all day.

I got married at 19 and I'm very happy that I did. That having fun, party lifestyle isn't for me. Also I had no desire to slut around I've only had sex with my husband. And by the way I'm not stuck in the house all day I own a car and have enough money to travel anywhere I want. I more view people that work all day are the ones tied down to a job and can't go out when they want.
what if there was a better man you could have met when you're 25? you just settled for your husband. Its better to date around and see which man is the best you can get.
And most families cannot support kids on only one income. And if the husband is the only provider, they are usually poor.
The biological clock is not about attractiveness. It's about the time which women can have children. By the time a woman hits 40 almost all of her eggs are gone. In 10 to 15 years age is unable to have kids. And a woman in her 40's if she does get pregnant, stands a huge risk of losing it, or it being born stillborn.. The biological clock is real for those reasons only.
Oh and on your paragraph about men... Sperm does not deteriorate until he is in his 80's...
As far as your choice to be a single mother. Go for it, especially if you're that insufferable. But understand all the worst things come from single mother homes, this is a statistical fact that can't be debated. It takes a, mother and a father to raise a child tight... Considering 90% of prisoners are from single mother homes.

Women never have to worry about when she can stop having kids. Because by 40, women should already have kids if she really wanted them. Its so ridiculous how FERTILE 34 yr old women complain about being worried about not being able to have kids. WHILE she's STILL FERTILE!!
Time is of the essence. The older the woman it can be harder for her..
Like starting to have children in mid twenties. By the time you are in your fifties you have a grown up family.
So the longer you leave starting to have children , problems with conseption, sadly birth defects. Plus you could be looking after a child in your 60s, not a thought I would like..
Yes, the Human 'biological clock' ticks for both sexes. With age, male and female gonads produce poorer and eventually no viable products. As a rule of thumb, female eggs tend to expire sooner than male sperm, but through the miracle of medical technologies both sexes can be 'saved'!
But this doesn't replace your ignorance and rudeness. I can't expect better from one so immature and inexperienced as you. Learn to have some respect for others who travelled paths that you have yet to see and maybe you'll get respect in return.
Umm... the point of my question was to point out the idiocy in which FERTILE young women complaining about being worried that they would end up being too infertile to have kids.
Why would you be FERTILE yet say that you will never ever have kids in your life? It doesn’t make any sense. That’s what a complete idiot would say
I think it does. Mine started ticking really loud when I was 28. I talked to hubs, we agreed and a year later we had a sweet baby boy.
You’ll know if/when you are ready for kids.
Its not impossible to have kids after 30 but its harder. I plan to adopt if I don't get married by 30 to 32 . I want kids no matter what it just depends on if I meet the right guy or I adopt.
adopting is not the same as raising your own real child. the bond is just different. Only men need to adopt, women do not.
I would love to raise my own but i don't want to settle for a not great guy just to have kids
The younger your man is the easier it is to get pregnant. Look at Meghan Markle, and he is barely younger. She’s actually older than you
