> About four-in-ten (39%) say a major reason they didn’t have children is that it just never happened.

This sounds.... circular? The reason they didn't have children is they just didn't? This study is strange.

That's for women who are 50 and older. I'd recommend reading the entire survey, or you know actual women in their 20s and early 30s.

57% of all American women under 50 don't want children as the Pew Survey showed. I honestly don't understand why it's so hard for so many guys to not get that a lot of women are uninterested in having kids.

And this is a common sentiment globally as living standards rise.
