It could turn around. Fewer women will mean that your daughter will be able to choose from a pool of single men and perhaps choose the richest one. If your family is poor, it can benefit from this. I think India should be more concerned abo

The original article says that Detroit has gone through economic changes and he is just pointing out that it has gone through demographic changes as well. I don't think he needs to add any comments to it, the link speaks for itself

The birth rate is below replacement level, in fact it's almost nearly 1 which means that the population halves every generation. At least you are lucky and your politicians don't flood your country with immigrants making sure that your cult

I admire Japanese culture, it's a shame that with their extremely low birth rate they might eventually disappear. This is not an exaggeration, the current rate just has to continue as it is for a few more decades and there is no reason to b

Aaaah, not very useful for me then. I live in Europe and doubt that I have any Asian or African ancestry. Maybe some Middle-Eastern or Sephardic Jew but I guess that falls in the same race as Europeans so they won't be able to tell me. $260

It wasn't about me, I've been doing sports my whole life but never tried weight lifting. Before I spend my time writing a reply, please answer this question. Do you think that if we all lived in the same environment, had the same diet, did

Where I live you honestly can't say that diet stunts people's growth. That would apply in places where food isn't readily available, but certainly not in the western world. From looking at people I know I can tell you too, that the differen

Even if we can't measure it, what makes it so hard to believe that intelligence is inheritable? Is height inheritable? Yes. Is eye color inheritable? Yes. Is skin color inheritable? Yes. Is physical strength....? Yes. Why wouldn't a human c
