That's a nonsense argument since it's completely orthogonal to what I noted. Whatever you mean by "such circles" and "those circles" has no relation to what I noted. If women seek out partners with bad character, they will have to live with the consequences. At any age that's 18 or above, it is the woman's responsibility to ensure the partner is a respectable person from a respectable family before having a child with them. It doesn't take more than a few months of being together to determine it.
If the person was initially good but becomes "wrong" later, this can in principle happen at any age. A higher age won't guard against it.
In reality, the common reasons for the delay are banal, like not matching a wildly-high near-seven-figure income, six-foot height, eye color, etc.
- watwut 4mo agoNot orthogonal at all. Having a kid as teenager makes you more vulnerable and vulnerable people are abused more. Simple. Respectable men from respectable families beat their wives. > At any age that's 18 or above, it is the woman's responsibility to ensure the partner is a respectable person from a respectable family before having a child with them. It doesn't take more than a few months of being together to determine it. Abusers can and do act nice for a few months when dating. It takes a lot more then that. And you are ALREADY blaming hypothetical woman for mens violence. You are blaming women for keeping themselves safe and also for violence done to them when they so what you want them to do.
