Which is the biggest reason college lowers women's birth rates?
Note :
An option that it does not lower birth rates is not included because I am limited to four options
I included that option in a previous poll which is no longer there because I deleted to include a different option
The fourth option would be a claim that if they discover sone true thing that is really true that is taught in colleges then they decide not to have children or have as many children

The option that makes the most sense is the one that's missing: time and energy.
College commits their time and energy to things completely unrelated to starting a family.
Those 2 fundamental things are a finite resource during a woman's most fertile period. It's simple displacement.
If pre-menopausal women were not allowed to attend college except during pregnancy or unless they gave birth less than two months before the semester they enrolled in for each individual semester and got kicked out of college for abortion then would college still lower birth rate?
Motherhood, especially early motherhood, is a full time job and that starts when she becomes pregnant.
The same problem therefore still obtains - college displaces the time and energy that mothers need to commit to their family.
On a macro level your scenario puts unnecessary financial, time and energy strains on families leading to broken families and more single parents.
There are 2 exceptions to college I can think of that don't also disincentivize women starting & maintaining families:
* female doctors. there will always be that need.
* women who are sterile or have no interest in motherhood
Arguably a 3rd are mothers with grown/deceased children, but that also takes money, time & energy away from her roles as wife/grandmother/aunt which again leads to more family dissolution, this time of mature family units. This causes generational chaos.
"only women who produce sons should have any rights"
?
Should women who produce daughters who produce grandsons have rights?
Why would you grant women rights if they produce sons?
But you could get man power for a militia without granting women whatever kinds of rights you think you should grant them for having sons
But they could have sons without giving them the right to own property and the sons could join the militia without giving their mother the right to own property
i dont mean i'd let them have a say in policy, ever
