The left can't reproduce (maybe stop hating men?)

"We call it the left, but mental sterilization is a better term, considering the outcome." "It's the anti-masculinity party versus the everything-else party. If you're a feminine woman who likes a masculine man, you're in the black category too." Brian and Alison on a study finding that right-leaning people now out-reproduce left-leaning ones, using a tool borrowed from evolutionary biology to measure it. For people born in the early 1900s, political orientation barely predicted family size at all. The researcher treats it as selection. Alison's objection is that nothing is being inherited — it's spreading culturally, which is worse, because there's no ceiling on it. Also: what happened to atheism when it decided religion was bad for women, and the masculine norms inventory beloved of development bankers, on which men flatly reject two of the five and mildly endorse two more — mildly, on a scale running from "I don't give a fuck" to "eh, maybe."
