They tried to link that to feminism.. this question isn't about feminism, that's a whole new debate.. But this got me thinking... I'd always assumed that yes, other cultures DO have more children than us and I assumed the idea that women were little more than breeding factories churning out kid after kid in countries like India...Apparently it isn't quite like that....and although for sure the world's population is increasing, (again another whole debate on it's own) the countries we traditionally thought of as having very high birthrates have actually seen a massive decrease in the number of children born.. according to a book I am reading called unnatural selection...I couldn't believe this.. it was against everything i had thought.. but a looksee on the web seems to confirm that countries where we traditionally thought people had loads of kids now do no... less

Both Flynns tweeted about it as if it were true thereby promulgating/promoting/spreading it. Flynn junior was fired from the PET transition team but daddy Flynn is a PET appointee. Yep he is, crazy conspiracy theory believer that he is. How does that grab ya? Fired and disgraced junior Flynn says until it is is disproved it is still a theory. Crazy junior. Does he fall far from the tree? Is Daddy Flynn crazy too? less
