Have ambitious women ruined the planet

Question

Its seems all the stupid women have more children so we have a society of morons all the smart women go for good jobs and often don`t have kids so more idiot DNA is passed on

Answer 1

I've noticed that too. I call it de-volution of society.

But don't 'blame' ambitious women, - men have stood by and done nothing but bow their heads.

Answer 2

You have read some of the answers on here that want to penalize working women who have children:

For example:  

Pay her less for 30-40 years because she may take 3 months off to have a child 3 times in those 30-40 years.

Don't hire her in the first place.

Don't give her a promotion cause she may take a phone call from her child.

Penalize her cause she may have to twice a year take an afternoon off to take a child to the doctor (but ignore the fact that the 7 guys in cubical 4B take every Thursday afternoon off to play golf - but since they say they are discussing work its okay)

Ignore the fact that she takes home work and only count the time she spends at her desk.  

So with that workplace attitude why should women want more children?

Answer 3

This is going to be interesting...

I don't really think it has anything to do with having 'stupid' parents. The child is quite capable of making a life of their own and achieve just as much as any other child. Sometimes its better that way, as if the parents are high flying career types, then it is likely that the child will turn out to be spoilt anyway. This however, is just my opinion.

Answer 4

I congratulate you. You pissed off most the women here. By the way, I agree with your statement. How many times do you see a woman living in a trailer home suffering from infertility.  

Answer 5

I noticed that... but maybe all the idiots will kill themselves off?  You know, jumping off cliffs because they didn't read the danger sign etc.

Answer 6

Exactly the same could be said of ambitious men.... they choose not to marry someone who wants kids and re-populate the earth. Of course, it's all a bit moot seeing as intelligence does not follow a Mendelian inheritance pattern and you child's IQ is in no way guaranteed by the parent's IQ. If you're this worried, lobby for increased funding for schools. Or even more schools - smaller classes have a good effect on child academic performance. Not something as negligable as this.

Answer 7

hmmm..sick of life that you're one of the DNA mentioned?

Answer 8

maggie thatcher (not a particularly smart female) got a good job and stupidly messed up her country with it, mark had no choice but to mess up with the genes he inherited

Answer 9

I am a smart woman, with a good job and kids.  How do you explain that conundrum?

Answer 10

I think  you need to remember that when you pose a question such as yourself that is highly controversial, one sided, and highly opinionated, you should expect a bit of flack.  

I would think your lack of security in yourself has you posing you the question.  As a woman having two university degrees, with plans in the next year to go for her Master's-I couldn't care less if someone has education or not.  I don't judge people by their transcripts-I judge them by their heart.  I know tons of woman who work ordinary jobs and are amazing women.  

I would be concerned about your own DNA by the way...you obviously are quick to judge...maybe you need to worry about your own offspring.

Answer 11

Well, then don't just sit there; I'm sure you got the equipment.

Besides; ambition is good, except when in the hands of the wrong person.

Answer 12

This is only part of the overall problem.

Greedy politicians have encouraged women to pursue careers as this generates extra tax revenue. Sadly the principle effect of two income households has been to inflate property prices, leaving couples working twice as hard for the same asset that used to be provided by one earner. The problem is exacerbated by a social security system that encourages the production of wasteful eaters.

The answer to the question is no, it is governments and international corporations who have ruined the planet in their greed for tax revenue and an ever increasing pool of customers.

Answer 13

You just watched idiocracy and thought you would enlighten us all with your superlative knowledge?

It has nothing to do with just women, it’s men and women who interbred and made incompetent progeny. Get over yourself; you want an answer? Ask a good question. You want a bunch of drivel filled replies to a futile unintelligible question; ask the one you just did. Your doing a very good job of looking like an idiot yourself, I must say: so can I ask; were your parents related?

Answer 14

oh well done, so now peoples' position in society decides how clever their children will be?

Answer 15

So what's the solution? Tell women to suppress all their ambition so they can breed? I don't think so. Give them a legitimate reason to have children and they will.

Answer 16

If we didn't have the labour government giving out free money and houses, literally then you wouldn't get all the idiotic chavs who can't be bohered to work and just keep popping out more kids.

Answer 17

I am not sure if I would like all of these "smart women" to pass down other  parts of their DNA and have influence over children though.  I am sure there are many wonderful ones, but I don't think all are the best people to set our sites on the ideal person.

Answer 18

Luckily some smart kids can come out of a stupid family.It's not always a given that the children will be stupid.And it's not only women that create babies remember,it takes two to tango.I know plenty of middle/upper middle class people who's children are thick as $hit! And they are the stupid parents because they are paying thousands of pounds a year for their kids education.You do the maths!One more thing you've gotta be dumb to have kids in this day and age anyway,no matter what your I.Q.

Answer 19

I think they are misguided but not for the reason of you're Q.

I totally agree with clives answer-The real reson for ambitious women.

Answer 20

I am blown away by the fact that the world population has DOUBLED since the day I was born.

1962  3.3 billion

2008  6.6 billion

I wouldn't go so far as to say that ambitious women have ruined it.

Answer 21

Yeah, we are being dumbed down, baby bonus/incentive only encourages idiots to breed and many smart women think its intelligent not to.

The west needs a large undereducated under class, to compete.

How long before the RFID chips?

Answer 22

Sexist, racist AND classist. You really struck the jackpot.

Your assumption that 'only' stupid people breed is incredibly insulting, not only to the many fine and hardworking parents around the planet, but to the incredible potential of their children.

In case you've forgotten, heritage isn't everything.

Or maybe, in your case, it is.

Cheers :-)

Answer 23

thats a plausible theory...btw. i borrowed your idea(appending skull&bones) for my own name.

Answer 24

You can call this your Henry VIII hypothesis...he believed it was all the women's fault for not giving him a male heir...so it's women' cerebral lacking that is causing a dumbing down of the planet's population?

And your research is based on how many of the 3 billion + women on the planet, and broken down into how many of those who have had children...or, as I suspect have you asked your mother to dig out you SAT results?

Answer 25

Holy crumbcakes spongebob!  You have a point there.  Society is going down the tubes-getting more violent etc.

Ambitious women not having enough children is only one of many things wrong with this planet.  

Answer 26

Ambitious women have only edified the planet, in my humble opinion, as they are typically brilliant and exemplify superb values and continue to bear offspring; and moreover don't preoccupy themselves with hatred.

It's only the feminists that are the destructive force with their selective, Marxist agenda.

Answer 27

Smart women go for good jobs so that they won't spend their lives with male morons. The stupid women are those who were probably raped by sexed-up male pervs.

Answer 28

Yeah, as opposed to those brilliant, toothless, trailer-dwelling men with mullets for whom watching WWE wrestling is mentally taxing, breeding children with the stupid women.

It takes two morons to make little morons, Sweetie.

If you take the sexism out of your question, I agree somewhat. Those who should be having children aren't, while those who shouldn't are breeding like rabbits. I blame the lack of affordable childcare and maternity leave support. It means responsible people can't afford to have children, whereas the stupid people just get the taxpayers to pay for their litters.

Answer 29

No men have been in control since man first walked upright and said ugg. Don't you have a mother someplace, why don't you ask her

Clive     ahem, woman want good jobs, to be treated fairly in work and out, and have not had the right to do so until the latter part of the 20th century. Even now its a struggle with prejudice on all sides.

Answer 30

well margret thatcher ruined the uk and her actions will be pasted on for years . high fuel costs and so on .but look at her off spring not very bright at all .

Answer 31

I suppose you're going to blame Hitler's mother for his atrocities too.

To be honest this question is so stupid it really doesn't warrant a reply.
