Hmmm, confused by some of the observations here.
I am a man. I'm from Europe.
My 3 female siblings don't have the same number of children (3, 2, and 0). They are all strongly in favor of feminism (as in, equal opportunities for women, rebalancing objective historical oppression). Same with most of my female friends. Most of them live with a "modern" man who supports them in their quest for improved women's rights. In exchange, these women, feeling validated by their partners, don't mind giving some of the best years of their lives to childbearing. Not just one kid, several kids.
So, maybe, part of the problem is with some of the men here.
Or maybe things are really different between the US and Europe.
Or maybe my experience does not apply to yours, and yours does not apply to mine.
Maybe the problem is with both genders.
Men who don't want to see the change that is coming and women who force that change onto men who are not willing to change?
I am a father, I am from Europe, and my partner is definitely a leftist who has moved closer to the center since we've been together. She had to learn that feminism has gone too far and that you can't have everything; there are trade-offs. I try to do everything I can for her. But some things are just unrealistic. She has to learn that as well.

Margins or extreme examples don't inform the mean...?
