Contrary to current discourse, fertility is not determined by being a “good” or “bad” person. But it’s understandable people are confused because studying this is actually very difficult. Luckily, there are people who do very good research. Like the folks at @BUPRESTOStudy

It takes a lot of energy to grow a baby — just ask anyone who has been pregnant. But scientists are only now discovering a human pregnancy demands almost 50,000 dietary calories over nine months, the equivalent of about 50 pints of ice cream. nyti.ms/4aoiDVG
