You’re absolutely correct, which is why I chose to phrase my post to say that the parent was taking a truth (women are increasingly choosing career over kids) and expressing it in what I consider to be bad faith. I don’t think that’s acceptable.

I also seriously doubt that the claims about women not living up to some standard of attractiveness or femininity are true, misogynistic or not.

70%~ of women in the US are overweight or obese. within the US, the amount of physically attractive women is steadily decreasing.

Why is it ok to blame men but not women though? Either we blame both or none. I'd say blame none. Ultimately on a population level you don't have lazy or cold, just politics with policies, incentives etc, so it doesn't make sense to blame anyone in particular. Instead of blaming just look at what policies would be more impactful for fixing the problems.
