He's got almost seventy years of untested genetic variants building up in his daddy bags from spermatogenesis and environmental factors.
I wonder if that's why women are born with all the egg cells they'll ever make? Like with everything else they've got to have in order if they also produced a fresh egg cell every month it might introduce too many genetic errors for the species to be viable.

u/etherealsmog 1d ago edited 17h ago
People don’t get that if you have, say, a 2% chance of congenital defects with a young pregnancy, and your risk goes up by 200% with a geriatric pregnancy, your overall risk is now still only
4%6%.My stats are made up, but the basic rule applies. It doesn’t suddenly become wildly more likely than not that a pregnancy will have issues.
People also don’t understand that these risk changes really just go up incrementally along a spectrum, so one woman at 36 may have an overall lower risk than another woman at 34, even though the 36-year-old may have an increased risk from when she herself was 34.

This article is BANANAS: * He met this woman, and planned to marry her after she became pregnant. She did, via IVF. * He froze his sperm 20 something years ago, a spring chicken of 55. * He put off the wedding twice, before they knew the babies sex. * The second time because his family (niece and nephew) thought she wanted his money and he was mentally confused. * he’s not even rich: house-poor (or more accurately, castle-poor), and she knew this. To this end, he has sent her a few $2k payments since the baby was born and suggested he couldn’t afford more. * they have more embroyos frozen and he suggested they implant them because he needs a son.
So to be clear: he’s poor but family think she’s a gold digger. He’s not mentally sound and called off weddings but wants to go through the whole thing again when he’s even older. He wanted a child to have an heir, but abandoned his planned child before knowing the sex, and can’t support the one he has. This man is genuinely erratic.

Most baronetcies are inherited by male heirs. If there is no male heir the title becomes dormant or extinct. For female heirs to inherit a baronetcy, the letters patent creating the title must explicitly allow female succession to the title. Some do this, but in most cases the succession is to “heirs male of his body lawfully begotten…”. So he’s probably wanting to ensure his title can be passed on and not fall dormant.
But I’m sure he has a great relationship with his daughters.

From what I remember he actually met someone, got them pregnant but called off both weddings to the lady (an American poet Sahara Sunday Spain) . He hasn’t even seen his daughter that was born so we can safely say he is a bit of a prick.
His statement sums it up when he was looking for a partner - The entrepreneur and self-publicist previously defended his interest in women three to four decades younger by stating: "You want a new car, you get a new car, not some old banger."
But alls well that ends well as it looks like he is going to loose his ancestral home and is going to sell it to a hotel group as long as they grant him visitation rights (to the home that is not his daughter who he still hasn’t met)
