freecounterpoint: If men gave birth

Saturday, April 01, 2006

The human race would have died out a long time ago, says this Russian guy. Any smart-alecky retort from JJ?

Mr roT said...: Smart comment? I am just happy that the Russians are getting their birthrate back up. I hope the rest of the West can follow suit. Maybe Italy, Spain, and France need killer dictators like Putin.; 4/01/2006 11:33 AM
Tecumseh said...: Yes, that was news to me, too -- that the Russians are starting to have babies again. Doubt Putin has much, if anything, to do with it: it's not rocket science, ya know?

As for the Italians & al, well, what can I say? Maybe they need the Coanda effect explained to them?; 4/01/2006 11:40 AM
My Frontier Thesis said...: Last time I was in Italy, little dogs provided handy substitutes for kids. JJ: what's the scene look like in 2006?; 4/01/2006 3:01 PM
My Frontier Thesis said...: ...and Claire, of London, (or London Claire?) wants us to stop overpopulating the planet.

Says Claire:

"A falling birth rate is a good thing. The planet is already overpopulated."

Mr roT said...: I think the birthrate is still terribly low.; 4/01/2006 4:58 PM
