cultures that pair young women with young men instead of pairing young women with older men are most respected these days. so it has become national policy in some countries to exploit such advantages.

firstly, government put extreme pressure to increase birth control to the extent that it becomes irreversible to gain the lost generation.

then, they expect to breed plenty as per their wish.

birth control should be there for maternal and child health but restricting births in such a manner will only invite troubles for the society that they can never solve. As the lost generation can't come back again.

On today's dating scene an exorcism on the first date sounds like a great idea
