I'm curious about yours. Where has IVF ever been shown to raise the birthrate?

Sorry BK, I thought you were making a bizarre claim that it lowered rates.
It does, which is why it's being introduced in Africa. It's not just infertile married people who use IVF. I know people here who have eschewed marriage to have their baby. Do that enough times, and yes your birthrate is going to go down.

I'm not aware of too many places in the west where women are ostracized if they can't have children.

Simple math. If one couple is successful, the birthrate goes up. It may be .00000001 but it goes up.
But as always, my initial post didn't mention birthrate. It mentioned more children(people) which IVF will do.
You choose to argue birthrate for whatever reason.
And after realizing how silly your statement was that it decreased it, you changed your arguement again and focused on the other half. But it does increase the birthrate (however small) so what are you going to argue next.

Not going there again after looking silly the last time.
but that's a Ben arguement, since it really has nothing to do with the initial statements so I'm not going to get sucked into a discussion I did poorly at last time.

I have to admit, I'm struggling with this one. You place greater emphasis on reproducing than marriage, and if enough people do this, the birth rate drops?

Should the west be subsidizing IVR and Circumcisions in AFRICA. It just seems silly. Like an African male (who refuses to use a condom to minimize the spread of HIV) would agree to have his manhood trimmed instead.
Africa needs more people.
Think how much money a US couple could save by just flying to Africa for treatments. They're already flying to India for operations. Eventually the insurance companies are going to force you to do it if you want treatment.

It's all about the numbers. IVF is expensive.
Say you get married and have 2-3 kiddos.
Say you have IVF instead of getting married and have 1 kiddo.
This is how IVF can actually reduce the birthrate, especially in areas where the marriage rate is very high.

Again, that's just plain silly. And more importantly it has nothing to do with the current discussion.
The article says using IVF for infertile women. They're not going to have ANY children without it, Married or not. GEEZE. AND they're talking about subsidizing it down to a couple of hundred dollars. Please read the material and discuss something pertinent.

Why would you have IVF if you can have 2-3 kids without it? Does marriage automatically make you fertile?
