Ben,
Thank you for your link to a true and eye-opening article concerning parenting (mostly females) and how their free labor (cooking, cleaning, parenting etc.) for approximately 20 years per child is a boost to the economy,  A limited number of females are in self-supporting careers, and females generally are pushed into marriage because of wedding fun, friends and excitement, the baby shower,( friends and gifts), baby milestones (first words, first steps, terrible twos), school (first day, homework, sports, friendships)  Generally, the American culture may be saying parenting means more attention to the parents of the child, bringing status to the parent.  The implication for females is that their only value is to have babies.  The reversal of Roe V. Wade and some States that force rape victims to carry a baby to delivery seems to reinforce the thought.  The economy needs women and girls to have babies so the economy can progress from the free labor of parenting,
