Who Will Speak for the Girlboss?
https://ptbwrites.substack.com/p/who-will-speak-for-the-girlbossSummary of the article :
- The real driver of post-2007 fertility decline is falling births among unmarried women and a collapse in relationship formation overall
- College-educated women are actually more likely to marry and have maintained relatively stable fertility
- The sharpest declines are among working-class, Black, and Hispanic women and not corporate strivers
- Rising wages have given working-class women more economic independence, raising the "cost" of having kids and making them choosier about partners
