      Thanks for this, so I redid the math using the two youngest categories (up to 34 years old) and the % goes from 21% to 26% 🤷‍♂️

        The light blue section doesn’t count towards either yes or no, right? Because it’s the “I don’t know” answer.

        I was sitting here wondering how they came to 21% at all without only looking at the oldest category, and even then it’s only a fourth that would not get children.

      Correct me if I’m wrong, but doesn’t basic biology say that it gets more dangerous for people to have kids the older they are? Let alone the virility of men over 40.

        It’s a risk to have a child at any age but the risk does raise as you get older scare tactics says it doubles and such after 40 but that doubling is like a 0.5% chance changing to a 1% chance. Adam ruins everything did a piece on this that explains it pretty well.
