There may, in fact, be a white tinge to a system that promotes later female reproduction. I think in a black country run by and for black people, this would be dealt with differently. That's the line of thinking I always have when they point out systemic racism. They are wrong in a many ways but not totally wrong.
Oh. Well I tell anyone who whines about systemic racism or “oppression” in the west that if they feel that way then go find a different country in a non western society. I guess I’ve heard enough young black people whine to last me a lifetime lol
In a matriarchal society, for instance, being a single mother would be less of a concern. For a young woman, the main concern would be whether your mother was accepting of the pregnancy, rather than the identity of the father. Access to resources for the child would not be gated by the identity of the father. A woman could still take one or more husbands with them helping raise a child that's not theirs being culturally accepted.
All of the negatives about single mothers -- they're damaged goods, they have to spend a ton of time raising a child whereas they'd otherwise be working -- all sound culturally specific to me. Women in all places do not stop working on account of giving birth. Their, um, advancement in society isn't necessarily impeded.

Encouraging women to have kids late in life?
No, I mean different stuff happening with the children that are born.
