South Korea Sees Birthrate Increase for the First Time in Nine Years

Hopefully this ends up being a sustainable increase:

The number of babies born in South Korea increased for the first time in nine years in 2024, driven by a post-pandemic rise in marriages, evolving attitudes toward parenthood and demographic changes, the statistics agency said Wednesday.

A total of 238,300 babies were born last year, up 3.6 percent from a record low of 230,000 in 2023, according to Statistics Korea. The figure had been declining since 2015, when it stood at 438,400.

The total fertility rate, the average number of children a woman is expected to have in her lifetime, also rebounded for the first time in nine years, reaching 0.75 in 2024, up from 0.72 tallied a year earlier.

Waiting for the resident eugenicist, to chime in on how Korea needs to “higher quality babies”, and not more “trash”.

Hey KM, let’s see how principled you are.

Are you ok with mentally disabled having kids?

Would you rather marry a 70 IQ woman or a 130 IQ woman? Who would you rather have kids with?

Would you be ok if millions of Korean women had children with African men?

chinabot must have been a trashcan baby. But we don’t love him less for that. We just dislike his feeble-minded attempts to spread failure and misery.

The funny thing about eugenics, is that for all the fear and loathing, we all practice selective breeding at an individual level. Everyone is trying to marry and have kids with good looking (a proxy for fertility), educated (intelligent), wealthy (general “fitness”), etc. In effect, eugenics is as old and natural as humanity.

Generally speaking. Intelligence can fall to delusions like believing a man is a woman, and a woman is a man just loke how once in China one might have believed a deer is a horse.

> It’s not my business who others should have kids. It’s their right.

Would you rather marry a 70 IQ woman or a 130 IQ woman?

> I’m already married, so neither. And I never asked what the IQ of women was when I was dating.

Would you be ok if millions of Korean women had children with African men?

> It’s none of my business whom Korean women have children with. I am not their controller. You are a fascist Nazi.

What did we learn?

– Fùck You – Korea man wants you to live in a society full of retards, which of course, you will need to pay for.

– He never asked the IQ of women… including the one he married… sooooo… now you understand why he is so sensitive of retards and retard kids

– she doesn’t care if Korean babes go boom boom with soul brother… because… he isn’t Korean.

The end

Relax buddy. I didn’t say anything about what I wanted to see. All I said was it’s none of my business what others do with their bodies. It’s also none of your business as well.

“All I said was it’s none of my business what others do with their bodies.”

Let’s apply that statement to the covid vaccine instead of reproducing with mongoloid bìtches.

Bonus: I never said to sterilize everyone on the bad end of the bell curve… which is a quick solution. I said that all positive government involvement, including subsidies for children, should only apply to people on the side of the bell curve that is beneficial to society.

The noisy dumbtards will point to the exceptions. Statistically, the intelligence level of society will improve… which will improve society.

Killing people by spreading diseases versus choosing to choose who to sleep with? Are they the same? Nope.

You’re being too mental now.
