    Amazing how low it is in traditionally Christian countries such as Poland and Spain.
    And (comparatively) how high it is in secular France.

    I like to blame dating sites’ pay-to-play business model incentivising sabotaging good matches to keep the users paying forever. That business model should be banned.

      Fertility is a very, very complex social issue
