Thought you would.

You make an interesting point about maternity. I don't think that all females are cut out for it (just as not all males are cut out to be husbands and fathers) but many women clearly are and they long for it (I've known them --and Davis makes this point; not easy to make the longing go away even if the culture despises it). And as you suggest below, our current economic arrangements make it more difficult for women than it should be (collapsing birth rates the clinching piece of evidence).

I'd solve the demographic challenges (and many other problems to boot) by setting up some sort of certification system that any married couple could apply for. If a couple passed, they would be paid by the state on a sliding upwards scale for each child they had and raised to maturity; with the 5th child, the pay would equal that of a standard middle class salary. To get the money, the woman would have to agree to stay home and raise the kids until they were in their early teens. I'd finance it (at least for the US) by cutting the "defense" budget by 2/3, closing down most of the bases abroad, ending "aid" to Israel and Ukraine.

Meanwhile, I'd set up a nationwide network of single-sex schools staffed, for boys' schools, by a mixture of retired military non-commissioned officers and BLs who had demonstrated that they could keep their hands in their pockets and their pants zipped. Teachers in girls schools would be the kinds of women who used to run good Catholic elementary schools.

Follow these prescriptions of mine and watch birth rates go up and most social problems disappear!
