Katie Miller: If more women put the same energy into their marriages and into finding a spouse than they do into their careers, you would see society have a lot more babies. That's what led to the downfall of Rome. https://t.co/H3PLXLNCiB

Roman women getting jobs? Or having a lot more babies? I’m confused.

And here I thought the empire fell for the same reason empires fall: a central power exploiting resources from the fringes of the empire, which inevitably can’t sustain those increasing demands for exploitable resources. Turns out it was Roman women with careers? Or having babies?

I’m still not sure about this. (I am quite sure about her implicit racism that white women aren’t bearing enough white babies, now, or in the days of the Roman Empire.)
