There’s a cultural shift. Modern women don’t want kids until it’s too late. They want adventure. How this is going to play out later I don’t know.

The HN submission is about lands and fighting climate change.

My main point was that the post is garbage (in addition to apparently not being related to what the commenter said about it), and my backing point was mainly that the (extraordinary) claims would need to be backed with solid evidence.

But that last point is also true for contradicting statements. Especially the adventure one. I would think it's more related to studies, career and job stability, and not only for the women, but they indeed study more and have more paid jobs than a century ago.

At this point I just won't take any "women want X" claim without strong evidence, too many of them have been stated only backed with intuition, which really doesn't work, because it's easy to introduce sexism (even if well-meaning) in such claims and we know there are strong biases around the topic (and let's be honest, the paragraph I quoted is plain sexism and completely disrespectful to the LGBT community, in addition to everybody else really - this link simply has nothing to do on HN if you ask me).
