People not getting married and having children? or getting married but not
having children? Living their adult lives without children and having
somebody thinking ill of them because they don't want to procreate?

Admiral Hopper was also famous for a remark she made on television in 1983.
She said " It is much easier to apologize that to get permission". She
explains this in her interview with Voices of America "... I want them to
go ahead and do it. I've seen that happen in the Navy. There was one young
lieutenant junior grade, and he was ordered to a very small ship; the Navy
thought it was too small to have a computer. He was in the administrative
department so he took his own computer aboard with him. In a very short
time he had the ship's records in his computer; he was getting all the
reports out on time; everything was going beautifully. When he was
transferred, the captain had to buy his computer as the ship could not run
with out it any more. He didn't have to apologize. He did it.".
