This story is currently on CNN's homepage, though with Justin Bieber getting arrested, who knows how long before it loses pixel real estate.

The 'Big Lie' in putting off pregnancy

The CNN piece starts off rally blue pill -- it buries the lead in order to complain about Hollywood and "from excessive weight gain to dramatic post-partum weight loss, regular women are fed a distorted depiction of pregnancy." However, it can't avoid the Red Pill truth of the book writen by a woman activist -- delaying childbirth has consequences, and it is not as easy to be an older mom as you may think.

Quote:She suggests that every young woman be shown a chart of her overall fertility so she understands when her eggs are best and when the number will start declining. She thinks that with the information, women can be more strategic about trying to get pregnant or at least not be blindsided if they have difficulties because they waited.

From the Amazon page for her book. "The Big Lie: Motherhood, Feminism, and the Reality of the Biological Clock"

Quote: Biology does not bend to feminist ideals and science does not work miracles. That is the message of this eye-opening discussion of the consequences of delayed motherhood. Part personal account, part manifesto, Selvaratnam recounts her emotional journey through multiple miscarriages after the age of 37. Her doctor told her she still "had time," but Selvaratnam found little reliable and often conflicting information about a mature woman's biological ability (or inability) to conceive.

I just found it interesting to see this on CNN, even if it had to be disguised in a "You-go-Girl'ism" lens.

But, you know, we men are perverts for wanting to date women in their prime reproductive years and all, right?

Opps, sorry. Let me see if I can delete this one.

Update:
It wouldn't let me. It gave me a "Not authorized" message.
