So acording you it is naive to pay attention to data instead of jus believing people who use caps and tells anecdota like your Drake story. Well, Kim Kardashian makes more money than Kayne West as an Instagramer/Influencer. Acording to your logic, he wanted to trap her with a child to get a check, right?

But let's unpack. Women are the ones using contraception (to not get pregnant, just the opposite of your claim), when contraception fails, many women abort (again, just the opposite of your claim). Women are going to college and working, which gets them more money, for longer time than having children. Not just that, instagram models, happen to have publicity contracts with brands, that make them money. Many times the audience that gives them money and contract is other women. Specially if they promote make-up and/or clothes. The idea that those models want to "trap an average men" is just absurd.

Specially if we consider that poverty rates are higher among single parents that usually are women:

So instead of claiming that some goship magazine is a source of facts, you might want to check data.

Not just that, you might want to look at things that age of marriage (women age for marriage is higher now) and having children (women are also delaying having children). And birth rates have go down in countries where women can chose. So everything points to the opposite of what you call "facts".

Deal with it, women in Instagram aren't after you, they are after fame and money, but from commercial brands, not men. And the more followers they have, the less they would care about "trapping a man". Hell, the "blue check" guy might making significant less money than the "instagram influencer". But I guess some people are stuck in the 1950s...
