• Hormonal birth control causes a drop in male testosterone levels.
• Women who are currently fertile are more attractive to men.
• Studies have shown that men are attracted to women who are currently fertile.
• High heels make women walk differently, creating a feedback loop of hormonal birth control.

The Gender Pay Gap

• The gender pay gap is a result of the fact that there are a small number of very high earning men.
• The gender pay gap is basically a maternity gap, as having children means that women can't operate in the workplace in the same way as men.
• Women are choosing not to do that, so if they don't have children and are a typical woman in terms of being slightly more conscientious, they do have more of an advantage in the workplace.
• This is unsustainable because of the birth rates thing, as any culture that stops reproducing itself is not going to last.
• Culture has to be patriarchal in order to reproduce itself, as having lots of kids as a woman is not sustainable without trade-offs.

Children and Career

• Children are expensive and knackering, and most women are choosing to have fewer children or none at all.

• The 96% extinction rate over the next 100 years is an incredible evolutionary bottleneck that we are going through.

Section 2: Declining Birth Rates

• The decline in birth rates is a population risk that's very unique in that there's no smoke in the sky, no asteroid heading toward Earth, and no lead measure if you're looking until it's way too late.
• The prioritization of the Here and Now of pleasure and meaning is a big chunk of it.
• The girl with the list on Tik Tok wrote a 3508-page long list of reasons why she didn't want to have kids.
• The problem is that the thing you have to have on that list of reasons to have kids is inexpressible Joy and meaningful experience of my life.

• The speaker notes that this bias does not fit with the idea that we live in a misogynistic culture, as women are consistently regarded in a particular way across cultures.
• The speaker suggests that this bias is due to the way that women are regarded as being in an intermediary position between men and children, with a kind of childlike legal status.

• The speaker suggests that this idea of freedom is based on a kind of denial of sex differences, with the most outspoken and gregarious amongster being seen as the most successful.
• The speaker notes that this idea of freedom is often used to justify the way that women are treated in society, with men being seen as more powerful and in control.

Section 4: Women's Achievements

• There is something about certain women that causes predators to see them as viable prey.
• This does not excuse the behavior of predators, but it is important to consider the role of the victim in these situations.
• The speaker suggests that there is a cultural surrogate for mothers in the form of public figures who speak out against sexual aggression.
