What is the optimal number of children for a family?

[hussain.r97]

You have google? Look up food production. Everything from the WHO to the UN has stated many times that enough food is produced but it is not properly distributed. The wealthiest nations on this planet waste hundreds of thousands of TONNES of food every year. Imagine if that was redistributed to other nations, to the poor within those same countries and so on.

I agree with this, though I still think Pakistan needs some sort of population control. We can't let the population grow further than this, it is far too much.

Pakistan needs to find ways to properly distribute food. But also, I think Pakistan needs to future proof itself, and invest in modern day farming practices, such as desert irrigation, vertical farming, undersea farming, and lab grown meat.

Why should this video be nay different to the other lies propagating by organisations on this planet?

Let me guess (I won't watch it but tell me if I'm wrong), it will talk about how humans are damaging the environment, taking up too much food, water etc etc etc and that a decrease in population is the only thing that will save the planet.


Yet, in my posts, which you are alluding too, I have already quoted several experts, in fact I could quote pages and pages of data and experts on the fact that the human population is nowhere near high enough to affect food production, the issue is food distribution. There is also enough space for billions more people on this planet before we get to the point of over crowding. How the land is distributed is another problem.

Better watch the video than coming up with assumptions and making a fool of yourselves. Better to be open to new ideas than clinging on to false believes.

People in this thread suggesting a certain figure of population to be optimal are out of their minds, no doubt. However you too are making a fool of yourself. As I said better watch the 6 min video and you will see exactly why you are coming across as a fool.

PS: your guess was completely wrong. So again watch the video perhaps you will be pleasantly surprised.

I'm very curious why you think Pakistan's population is too high? And what problems it is causing?

I don't think so. I guarantee my guess is correct. Plus, like I said, the video is pointless as no credible expert organisation can state, or has stated overpopulation is causing various problems. I quoted several of those. If you can disprove experts from the WHO, WFO, UN, OECD, then you are welcome to if that will be your next reply.

I see you are full of pride. This is how ignorant people stay ignorant. Their pride blinds them from even listening to what they consider to be an opposing view. You have already made up your mind about me and my views without actually knowing them.

Anybody who saw the video I linked to can understand why you are making a fool of yourself.

I thought equal rights means 50% in each matter.

But let's apply your childish logic. Since men are the ones who have to sacrifice their LIVES to protect the country/house/ family I guess it's alright if women have no say in how a country/house/family should be run?

It is not as if men chose to not have children, it's biologically not possible. So go ahead and say biology is misogynistic.

Thanks for making the case of how dumb feminist logic can be.

Thanks for being a cheerleader for patriarchy,

Its the woman's body that goes through immense pain and suffering to deliver a baby. Until men start producing babies they should have no say whatsoever in how many babies a family should have. They can of course share their wishes but its the woman who must have the last say in such matters. If a woman does not want, there must be no babies. If a woman wants to be done with one baby, there must be no more.

Equality is about men having a say in choosing not to have a baby so that women can't force parenthood on them.

Both partners must have a comprehensive discussion on this when they decide on marrying each other so that there are no confusions or betrayals later.

I wasn't cheerleading patriarchy. For that you first have to define "patriarchy".

However I misunderstood you. I thought you were suggesting that a man can't even share his opinion on the number of kids. You still could have kept it short and to the point instead of rambling on about pain, betrayals and what not.

Patriarchy : A system of society or government in which men hold the power and women are largely excluded from it.
