    Yes, we feel bad now that liberal communists have showed us we are racists and imperialists who acquired wealth on the backs of others and worshiped a false fascist Christian God. We are not worthy of reproduction and even if we were we cant afford it because the libcommies made the economy so inefficient.

    Hispanics are not an ethnic group, they are a language group. Hispanics can be white, black, native American, Asian or mixed (most common).

    Way to go to try to obfuscate the statistics using semantic nitpicking.

    Yes, there are some Hispanics that exist that are White, of Spanish heritage, but the U.S. doesn't get many of those.

    (Interestingly they have lower birth rates, by the way)

    Whites are giving birth which was the topic now you're talking about net white population? The net reduction might be attributed to whites being older? And you need to define 'white'? White meaning only European descent? What do we call those from the Middle East or parts of Africa that are near to Europe? If a black person and white person have a baby...is the baby white or black? The US is a melting pot of immigrants so over time we might expect changes in ethnicities...

    Natural selection. If a male is too stupid to live, then the female will look elsewhere. Ain't rocket science.
    And why would it be the female's fault that white males aren't excelling in society? Lazy males don't get the female in any biological mating dance.

    The U.S. Census Bureau defines the ethnonym Hispanic or Latino to refer to "a person of Cuban, Mexican, Puerto Rican, South or Central American, or other Spanish culture or origin regardless of race" and states that Hispanics or Latinos can be of any race, any ancestry, any ethnicity.
    3 biggest reasons why they don't have kids
    1) liberal feminism devalues love kids marriage and family
    2) more materialistic so they want stuff more than kids
    3) liberal govt wastes so much that they have little left with which to raise kids so don't

    females have become like blacks, a victimized minority that makes white men feel guilty and toxic, toxic masculinity!

    Only the insecure males, and that's not a trait we want to pass on anyway.

    why insecure? We are seeing this generally across the West. It must be reversed since white men founded Western Civilization.

    women and Marxists have white men buying the term toxic masculinity so it is in part caused by women

    My guess is that most Hispanics after a generation or two will identify as white. Most second or third generation Hispanics I've met do.

    Really good article from NY Times:
    https://www.nytimes.com/2018/07/05/...having-fewer-babies-they-told-us-why.amp.html

    Americans Are Having Fewer Babies. They Told Us Why.

    Wanting more leisure time and personal freedom; not having a partner yet; not being able to afford child-care costs — these were the top reasons young adults gave for not wanting or not being sure they wanted children, according to a new survey conducted by Morning Consult for The New York Times.

    But it’s also a story of economic insecurity. Young people have record student debt, many graduated in a recession and many can’t afford homes — all as parenthood has become more expensive. Women in particular pay an earnings penalty for having children.

    “We want to invest more in each child to give them the best opportunities to compete in an increasingly unequal environment,” said Philip Cohen, a sociologist at the University of Maryland.

    I can guess that women in general cannot achieve an equitable position in the economy as long as they typically are burdened with pregnancy, birth, childcare for first couple of years, health issues, etc. while the male is reasonably free from these encumbrances. As long as the male is considered the 'bread winner', while the female is burdened with children, it's no surprise to me why more women are not interested so much in kids. It sort of comes down to an emotional decision over an economic decision, or achieving one's potential, to have kids or not...

    Maybe women in cities have more career opportunities than they used to, but it's also because their expenses (housing, cost of college) are greater, so they're under more pressure to work.

    Also a big part of this story is that women are having a harder time finding a man who can afford to provide for her family.
    When men earn less money, women have fewer children.

    Broke men are hurting American women's marriage prospects

    There's a devastating shortage of men who have their act together, according to a new study that may not be so surprising to all the single ladies out there.

    Research now suggests that the reason for recent years' decline in the marriage rate could have something to do with the lack of "economically attractive" male spouses who can bring home the bacon, according to the paper published Wednesday in the Journal of Family and Marriage.

    "Most American women hope to marry, but current shortages of marriageable men -- men with a stable job and a good income -- make this increasingly difficult," says Daniel Lichter in a press release.

    Lichter adds that unless your dream man is an Uber driver, the dearth of would-be grooms is prominent "in the current 'gig economy' of unstable, low-paying service jobs."

    To investigate the man drought, researchers created profiles of potential husbands, based on real husbands as logged in American Community Survey data. They then compared these hypothetical spouses with actual unmarried men.

    They found that a woman's made-up husband makes 58 percent more money than the current lineup of eligible bachelors. This study reveals large deficits in the supply of potential male spouses, the study concludes.​

    Or maybe they just don't want to spend decades of their prime adult lives raising economic cannon fodder for Wall Street parasites to rob and enslave.

    There's no such thing as a lib commie. I'm a liberal: I believe in equal individual rights to life, liberty, and property in the fruits of one's labor.

    ??Sanders and Warren are commies but liberals in the Democratic Party will have no problem supporting them if they get the nomination. Read "Useful Idiots" for a complete list of American libcommies many of whom spied for Stalin and Hitler because they loved their liberal big govt schemes. See why we say liberalism is based in pure ignorance?

    How is that different from trolling?
    No. You don't believe in an individual right to liberty, because you believe the privileged can rightly own others' rights to liberty.

    I've been married for 41 years, and it's not like all that stuff you mentioned. I've thought about this recently, and it sure does seem like people have expectations of long term relationships that are right out of romance novels and movies. Advertising doesn't help either. When the fantasy relationship becomes that assumed normal, things just ain't gonna last.
