This is not applicable to anyone, but is more common for women. Theories Byproduct view This theory predicts that people have basic drives (Libido, sex drive and nurturance instinct) that makes sure that reproduction occurs without the desire to have children per se.

This theory does not deny that reproduction is controlled by some people, but these are seen as results of deliberative choices that surpass the normal situation. Strong Point This theory is consistent with reproductive behaviors of almost all other plant and animal species, and a historical lineage that can be traced back to Thomas Robert Malthus, Malthus. This points out that if baby fev ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
