I had an interesting conversation with someone I know who works at a doctor's office. She is an older lady and conservative in the 1960's way. We were speaking about having a family, and I lamented that so few young males are. She said she saw it too and asked what could be done.
I said plainly, "It's the laws." She looked at me confused. I proceeded with the business partner analogy, and I could see that she comprehended my point. She even said that made sense why men wouldn't take that deal.
That's kind of a win.
I don't know whether she has daughters, but if female boomers with daughters are the group least likely to understand the problems facing marrying age zoomer men, and even she gets it, then things are objectively terrible.
