I think that when we talk about relationships or marriage, I think something that's really important is we have to talk about whether or not children are being discussed or not. Because I think once you introduce the child aspect, I think the style or the type of relationship that you do is going to become way more important than whatever exists prior to that.

I would agree, for instance, in terms of what Ben is saying, that There's probably going to be some structure that is ideal for the care and the raising of a child. I think that having a child gives you a much bigger buy-in to society because now all of a sudden you care about a lot of things that you might not have before because not only do you exist in society, you can't just run.

Now you've got a child that exists there and you've got to ensure that everything functions smoothly, not just for you, but for that child as well. And arguably, although we're getting into weird places, I guess, in the world now, like children are the primary conduit for like where you transmit like cultural values and everything.

The one kind of weird thing that we're coming up against that we have been coming up against now for some number of decades and will continue to is as societies progress, seems like people are having less children. And I actually don't know 100% what the answer is to that question. I do.

I mean, an implementable answer that works, that we know we can get everybody on board with. It seems like for a large part of human history, having children, and it still is, having children is awesome and children are cool and children are magical and miraculous and all of this, but you didn't really have much competing for your attention to have a child, right?

When you hit a certain age and you started working, especially if you're a woman, I mean, childbirth is kind of the next step. And then having a family, raising your children, and then doing that is kind of the next step.

Nowadays, especially with women being able to work, especially women having access to birth control, there's a lot available in the world that's competing for the interest of people that could otherwise be having children, such that we've almost flipped it, such that, as Ben brought up earlier, wealthy people tend to have less children than not wealthy people.
