Historically, women started having children around 16-18 years old so that 7 was much easier.
Societally, almost everyone would argue we shouldn't encourage women to have kids that young.
- habinero 6mo agoThat doesn't seem to be broadly true. For example, in Tudor England, women generally got married in their early 20s and men on their late 20s. People absolutely knew pregnancy was dangerous for girls who weren't full grown.
