- New research shows a sharp drop in the number of babies born in the U.S. in 2017. An analysis reported in the New York Times found an estimated 3.84 million babies were born in 2017, down more than 100,000 from the year before. New York Times investigative reporter and CBS News contributor Jodi Kantor joins "CBS This Morning" to discuss the "decay of social bonds" due to smartphones and the impact of the #MeToo movement on intimacy.

Damn right!!
This is why when men play video games, women complain about "manchildren." The women will have to improve their game rather than complain about video games, but we all know that will not happen. Instead, they will just push for companies to make video games that are politically correct.

Marriage = long term prostitution.
What's actually happening is when a woman approaches a guy, he grabs his smart phone and records the encounter to avoid a sexual harassment charge.
That is what my friend did for some girls he had sex with. So if they decide to change their mind from consensual sex to rape he will have proof. Sad times we live in.
I always have 4 secrate cameras in my clothes all the time. I record everything. So most likely I am safe from fake charges.
an they need make it fast too because my phones low on memory
If he is smart! SoP!
Anyone who watches the current status of male/female relationships today knows exactly why the birthrate is dropping. And everything said here doesn't even comes close.
Will you just said paragraphs worth of commentary. This scene is just completely hollow, something from the other side of the truth universe. Could it be that it is 3 females and one Blue Pill talking the feminist narrative??? Hmmm

Thanks. I specifically phrased it that way for those who wish to stay in the dark. If they can't figure it out with all the confirmed data thats out there now, they never will.
Plain and simple, I would rather stay home and play WoW than go on dates and I'm not alone :P
clueless reporters...cell phones are to blame...women just can't accept any responsibility can they?
We don't know for sure what the cause(s) is. But each individual weighs for him or herself if the transaction is worth it to him or her. And decides to do it or not to do it. The free market will decide.
The difference between the content of the video and the comments here is astonishing.
Its a morning show whose main audience is women. They in no way tried to be fair to the topic for fear of offending their audience. In the comment section, guys have pointed out the flaws and brought up the main reasons: feminism and the court system, why the phenomena is happening.
And, Patrick, the shows hosts are oblivious to what is really happening.
mike curran, I was thinking the same thing. The show truly knows what is up. MGTOW philosophy.
@Kathryn Dorsey we do have a say in declining marriage rates. Men aren't proposing anymore.
@Kathryn Dorsey No say at all? Ok, good to know, I'm hoping you're a teenager, because if you aren't, that is a very very ignorant comment to make just like a lot of these other comments by frustrated teens

Tia Moore It's to leave in evidence how exposed males are. Laws and the risk involved in a relationship or simple interaction with females it's too much of a risk under the man hating feminist agenda.
persezyra leave evidence? Like evidence of people making different choices and therefore different results?
The leading cause of divorce is adultery and men cheat more.
Wake up..it's not the smart phones themselves..it's the information they provide..we are beginning to get information that makes us realize that pumping out 10 kids into this world is just wrong..in some cases 1 is too much because we realize they are in for a rough life!
LOL
I graduated top of my class in high school, went to four year college on scholarship, am in the top 90% percentile for income, own my own home AND pay for my parent's livelihoods and can not find a woman to stay interested for longer than a couple months. They are entitled. They don't reciprocate. They test at every step of the way. They're hung up on their exes which runs the gamut; either drug dealers or high status men like doctors who broke up with them for being emotionally unavailable. My married friend has a girlfriend and hooks up with women constantly. He is HONEST with them about his situation and they find it attractive. Something is rotten in this country.
Not just in this country.

Many women that I see on a day to day basis seem like they can't be bothered to be friendly or to even say hi let alone flirt date and then have sex. Cold women are probably what turn off a lot of men.That and the expectations that they have for men are ridiculous.

Candy Kane it’s more like you can get laid for nearly free this days. Women are too easy so there is no point to commit as you get nothing out of marriage you can’t get out of it. With the added bonus of variety, no responsibilities, a nagging free life and so on. Before we had to make a trade of all that for sex, but current society values are just as we dreamt of. All we need to do is be successful at work, workout and not eat like a pig. Then girls make themselves available. Win win.

To the ladies watching this segment: the answers you seek are in this comments section. Take heed.
M.G.T.O.W.
As a MGTOW, I don't give a rip if "the ladies watching" take heed. In the span of five decades, women have conspired with Western (or more precisely, English-as-first-language) governments to create a social and political environment so noxious to the human spirit, that the only wonderment is, what caused men of this and the past two generations to tolerate the slow, tortuous, soul-destroying contemporary version of the Bataan march? There were opportunities presented to women to right the wrongs of a malevolent, sociopathic, self-destructive, and oppressive ideology-wave that they rode like a championship surfer; it was a rush, and they yearn for it, like a drug. Women constantly and universally succumbed to the drug, ignoring its long-term effects on themselves, on men, and to the society which for so long led the world in so many categories. Now, the surf's retreated, preparing for a tsunami of proportions no one dared anticipate, even if the warnings were present and voiced frequently during the 50 years or so that women held reality, civility, and morality their hostages. Man's mate could not be counted on to have his back, so he turned HIS back and walked away from her and her big-brother protector, and, in doing so, no longer has HIS mate's back. The Pied Piper of Cold Logic is playin' for "the ladies watching." "Every act of creation is first an act of destruction." -- Pablo Picasso

Birth rates falling harder than ever!

I'm writing this reply in February of 2021. It appears that the added complication of COVID has resulted in an massive collapse of birthrates. The bottom has dropped out.
@@CommanderCronus fewer opportunities for extramarital sex.
@@CommanderCronus We won’t know the full effect till they get the studies out over next two years or more and by then it will be even worse. The hypergamy of women, divorce laws, blatant institutional sexism against men, rampant ideology, and economic impact have all driven us away.
"American Fertility is falling short of what WOMEN want" After hearing that I didn't even watch the rest of the video
Smartphones? How about the number of 20-somethings who have to hold multiple jobs to pay the bills? And the fact that more and more millennials are having to go back to their parents house because they can't afford the cost of living doesn't get mentioned? There are obviously multiple factors at play, but economic factors are pretty high up on the list.
My folks, both from Catholic families, both had an unusually low number of siblings. The reason: They were born during the Great Depression. The same dynamics are at work nowadays
In this video majority of the surveys were based all female surveys. The real reason why there's a decline in the birth rate men are not dealing with females or getting married because men because the laws favorite females a man be crazy today to get married or have kids is a bad investment is not worth it for men too much to lose
Right the juice is not worth the squeeze.
more like everything to loose
I think the other reason is that men are starting to realize that they actually don't want to be knights in shining armor. They don't want to slay the dragon just to earn the princess's love. They're slaying the dragon to save themselves. What we're seeing here is basically a man's feminist movement where they're realizing that they're worth more than a life catering to the needs of a woman and kids.
Men have realized that the laws in family court are stacked against them. No intelligent man would get married in modern society.
You know, instead of just lying or playing the guessing game. They could just go out and ask men why they avoid women. Guess they don't want to hear the truth or let anyone else know.
Since they don't respect men, then why would they put questions to them? Or, why would a misandrist trust the answers men provide? It makes sense, in that particularly paranoid-delusional, reality-bending way that women live their lives by these days.
I'm 30 years old. I like my freedom, my financial situation and especially my sanity. A woman (the modern generations in particular) negate all of that. I have no interest in dating any further and I'm happy about that.
A simple cost-benefit analysis shows that it's certainly not a good idea to get married or prolong a relationship.
Women offer so little these days whilst the negative aspects of relationships effectively multiply with every generation .Sex is really all that's provided as a consistent positive ..from a woman who has often already been with multiples of men prior and the quality and frequency are constantly dropping with every stage of commitment.. and we won't even get into divorce and family courts and the statistical chance of divorce being over 50%..
It's really not worth it and thankfully most men are starting to see that.
If you stress every day over work and work pay, sex will be the last thing on My mind.
Exactly! I'm willing to admit I'm in this statistic of not having sex in the past year (although I'd use a condom if I did) and it's because of work, bills, and being busy. It's quicker and easier to use my hand,
This is one reason why the birth rate in Japan and South Korea is very low.
Feminism also fooled women into becoming "strong independent" by becoming corporate work slaves. It was perfect though as women hardly put up a fuss and are obedient little slaves.

Gregtier3 thank you.
I read That Book over 6 years ago and that was an eye opener after I read it and I've come to the conclusion that most American Women are just Unbearable to deal with I just deal with them strictly for Business and Professional reasons only. I now do my dating and kicking it Overseas at least you don't have to worry about dealing with the false accusations of being falsely accused of rape,Assault, Sexual harassment or getting stuck on Child Support for a Child That's not even yours as I've Officially opted out of the American Dating Marriage Scene over 7 years ago and haven't looked back since.

Just sit back, and watch the freak show begin.
These are new and more advanced times, imho I think the younger generation is/are just looking at the bigger picture now days.

Take away women's rights and you'll see healthier birth rates, less unemployment, less crime, less drug abuse, less mental disease frequency, and overall happier male-female relationships.

John Brown 👍
john brown, its government needs to give back the rights of men. to many women in the government, stop voting for women as representatives.
Doesn't matter who you vote for, as long as women can vote they will always outvote you because men die more often and overall live less years.

Not mentioned is the use of smartphone dating applications that exclude 80% of undesirable men from the dating pool; the increase in celibacy is almost entirely driven by this demographic as a few good men hook up with the majority of womenkind.
langhamp8912 And men are waking up too.
Most women today would rather ride as many strangers as possible than start families. Then when their looks fade and their fertility is nearly gone, they want the steady, reliable man they rejected in their 20's to be their backup plan.

It was always a trap but in the old days at least women were gratefull and more kind (at least mayority of them).
Still way better than bringing children into unsustainable relationships, the irresponsible nature of previous generations have inserted a negative opinion about marriage and commitment into this generation as many of them grew up in broken families or witnessed families breaking apart too often.
Why would any man sign up for this? It’s not a good contract. Opt out men.

Why are Birth rates declining ? Hmmm Let me see 1.college is expense 2. Inflation keeps going up 3. Look at society 4. Too many problems this day and age to have children I only have 1 child and don't plan on having anymore just look at society right now
we have alot of guys that fear paying child support, among other things.
What's really sad was that many men fell behind on payments during the recession. Many of them owed so much in back pay that they simply gave up, and remained on the streets. Their lives are forever ruined, and they will remain on the streets until death.
Men self report on the reasons why they’re not dating getting married or having kids. So let’s ignore what 1/2 of the population is saying, and instead come up with every other possible alternative reason why this is happening 🙄 It’s ok, men are used to being ignored and brushed aside; just realize actions have consequences; ignorance and indifference can easily be reciprocated 😘✌️

Did u guys forget that a women can think of a false rape allegation randomly, tell it to the police and destroy a man’s life without evidence
No guy wants to be accused of rape and not ALL women are truthful angels. But yeah sure, blame smart phones.
The explanation: MGTOW
The Tradcon and Feminist establishments simply don't get it.
Because women are getting smartphones, and men are just getting smart.
Men are tired of being labeled toxic and useless. They are checking out by the thousands and many are marrying foreign women who respect traditional roles of men and women in the family. Good luck ladies. You'll need it.
MGTOW brothers thumbs up please let them see the fruits of their reckoning
You fail to mention the Divorce and how you get ripped off because of a cheater . And somehow the court system make you pay for their infidelity
That's right. No kids or child support. No compliments and no image. No no no
Right anybody who is foolish enough to get married and have kids today is a fool.
We all know damn well that a guy just doesn't wanna be tied down with all the BS we gotta do in our lives. They dance around the truth to much.
Exactly!!!! I laugh at all these people who say the reason men aren't getting involved in relationships or having kids is because of the laws. Noooooo it's because men want to be freeeeeeee. It's finally acceptable for men to never marry or have. Kids and millions of men are taking advantage of this and letting their whole lives be an adventure of their own choosing rather than centering their entire existence on their wife and kids.
@@SomethingSomethingg Well the laws also play a role. Some men do want kids but it's financial suicide these days.
I beat my case 91 to life, lost my home I worked so hard for, lost my kids to an ex, had to move and the topping of it all...having to explain my situation to employers that your case was dismissed! Tell me how that’s fair while she sits pretty with no repercussions???? MGTOW
A man wants a wife, not a co-worker.
You blame it on smart phones and internet.... lol. Why don't you do a little thinking and research to figure out why men have become so disinterested instead of blaming technology.
Women know why. They just don't want to face the music.
No interest in any of it. MGTOW for the rest of my life.
*IT'S BECAUSE OF WOMEN'S SENSE OF ENTITLEMENT.*
If you look at the polls, almost 99 percent of men and women would like to be parents someday, it's just that what is perceived to be prerequisites to bequeath your kids has skyrocketed. It used to be that you had kids as lifes most miraculous rite of passage, no college, no shiny car, no other obligation other than love. And so the time never really comes when people feel financially secure enough to become parents.
Now people think they have to give them a laundry list of expensive amenities as a baseline. It's unthinkable in this day and age to even consider raising kids to not be even more well off than you are. And that's the crux of it, people think that they are entirely responsible for their kids financial situation, 18 and beyond. No, raise them well, and leave the rest to them. At the end of the day, we're all on our own anyway. So don't let consumerism make you miss out on the greatest rite of passage.
i've done this ,i put her on her own from college, no help and she has succeeded on her own, i staid out of her life completely except for a lunch one a year. its all up to her.
Women think that, not men

Well Jesse you can do a surrogate or adoption.

I would love to have a wife and family but it took a long time to get where I’m at financially and emotionally. I’m scared of being divorced after hearing so many horror stories from older men and women.

Smart phones? Stop dodging whats really happening.....
All good points, but seen through the eyes of women. Some men are deciding that the risks of socializing with women is too high for the benefits. I think you’ll find this is a western problem.
The same problem happens in Japan, I think they call it "Sekku Hara."
Obviously you don't want to talk about the elephant in the room.
There's no value in it for men. Yes Men, do want to have children and a family. But the way family courts and child support system are, Man are not signing up for getting divorce rape and plus woman use man as ATM.
MGTOW ?
I don't want children and I am a man? My wife and I made that decision together and we get to go on vacation while our friends clean up spit up and get peed on.
I love my life and I'm so glad I got snipped. I plan to foster or adopt if BOTH of us change our minds.
I guess I'm a feminist for not wanting kids. But in reality i just can't afford the house to put one in.
If many of these women keep delaying having babies into their later ages, we will see a sharp increase of down syndrome children, which is a very heartbreaking ordeal for the child and the parents.
That is why the number of women getting egg freezing is increasing.
Skyline Fever it still won't matter, as they get older so to does the womb, for many females the window of opportunity is only open for like 10 years, 15 at the most, and as they get older the chance for the child coming out healthy goes up. The egg freezing technique is still not perfected also. If they use a surrogate mother, and she is young, then that could be something they could look into doing. But I guess only time will tell.
Typically, blame men is the norm, but too many men get clobbered in divorce court and men just stoped proposing...
My husband and I are planning but its tough out there, todays climate is just not positively conducive to raising children, day care is insanely expensive, I need to work and I can’t afford to stay home with the baby after maternity leave, and then when you think about college and tuition to get them through it, it’s ridiculous out there.
164.5 million Americans can't realistically afford children and that is the big reason. Childcare costs as much as rent, and then you have insurance, food, cloths, toys, ext.. It's very expensive, and when people are young they have loans to pay off for school. If you have no money saved an emergency cost can wipe you out. Foreclosure/eviction is extremely stressful and can damage a marriage bad. Fighting because of money problems is a big cause of divorce.

I do wish you luck. You are at least showing that you are aware of the challenges, which is a good sign.
Thanks #metoo for this.. it'll get much worse over the next year.
You can't devote 80-120 hours a week to a high end professional career, and be a mother.
You can give birth and then hand the baby off to a nanny to raise, but that cut's deep into your paycheck.
Getting married was the worst thing that has ever happened to me
Mr. Mike
Then get divorced.
🤣😂😂😂
Not for me. I cuddled my wife of 7 years in the couch last night, and I loved every minute of it. We are very happy and lobe each other very much.
Relationships are a waste of time and money.
Well how about that. They didn't blame it on men this time.
unbelievable ... they still don't get it !!!! MGTOW
Correction: the don't want to get it. They refuse to get it.
They will get it one day........when they are old, alone and with their scores of cats.
Smartphones out of all things lol
You see , that is an ill - raised , cocky and arrogant , disrespectful , man - hatter of a heffa !
There in denial
Not a word about toxic femininity killing boys motivation to engage...
In my opinion the core reason millenials arent having babies is because nobody wants to intentionally become a SINGLE PARENT. Marriage rates have drastically decreased and dating culture just flat out sucks due to commitment issues we have that probably stem from so many of us witnessing our parents getting a divorce growing up. Hardly anyone wants a relationship yet alone a marriage these days due to fear. But we still crave sexual interaction so weve all pretty much decided to turn to casual hookups instead with no strings attached. Most people choose condoms and birth control because nobody wants a baby they would have to raise in two separate homes or as a single parent that would depend on child support. That just sounds awful. No thanks. If i cant have a healthy marriage Id rather just not have kids period.
Smartphones. Yah, right.
The US has always struggled with the constant war between its romantics (who are dwindling) and its puritan ancestry.
Gee, Should I Get married and have enough kids to keep me working until death or not get married and go to the tropics twice a year. Bermuda Wins !!!
Remember, Kings, that some states have common law marriages. Best read up on that literature and stay safe if you're practising in one of these "relationships"
