Nobody says it's impossible.
And my wife has a college degree and has no impetus to work at all.

Her sister has masters and doesn't want to work either .
Riddle me that

You seem to think suggesting women get advanced degrees means we also think people shouldn't have babies.

Also, you seem to be making some stupid "women don't want to work" claim which is just nonsense.

The only question I have - why advocate childlessness? U people seem to be making claims that if woman has kids - she's automatically a baby factory and a servant.
This is mindbiggling

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straw_man

You introduced the idea of not wanting women to give birth in a conversation where the only thing brought up was women don't have to give birth to be valid. Women not wanting children is as valid as women wanting children.

The straw man here is the anti-natalism.
