The Declining Global Birth Rate, Feminism and the Patriarchy
Manage episode 500081703 series 2561693
From Nairobi, Kenya, we dive into one of the most complex and controversial issues shaping our world in 2025—the global decline in birth rates. This episode explores the economic pressures, political debates, and cultural shifts behind falling fertility, from skyrocketing childcare costs in the West to new population policies targeting Africa. We unpack how feminism, contraception, immigration, and shifting gender roles are influencing family dynamics—and, crucially, what this means for men. Whether you want kids or not, these trends will shape your relationships, career, and the society you live in.
