> The window of opportunity for women is a lot narrower.

Really?

A friend of mine is 24 and her parents got here when they were in their sixties.



You can always talk about edge cases, which do not reflect the reality for vast majority of women.

At least the window to give a birth to a child for a average woman is a lot smaller than a average man.


It is smaller, but it's not like all women have to get their children before 30...


A male CEO of any age can have biological children with someone of prime fertility age. A female CEO doesn't have the same luxury.


If your point was to say that biological fertilization+pregnancy+motherhood is not the only opportunity for a woman to have a family, you made your point too obliquely for this audience.


Probably.

Most of HN users have different opinions than me or simply don't understand what I'm trying to say. Also I'm not a good writer lol


Your friend must be a test tube baby because all women have gone through menopause by 50.


It was rather strange, yes. I mean her parents are now over 80 and were already alcoholics before they got her. Maybe good genetics or something.
