Pff good luck with that, lots of gays are having kids now via surrogacy and sperm donorship. It's not a means of population control anymore like it might once have been
The best incentive to stop people having kids it to tax the crap out of anyone who has more than 1 or 2. Unfair to suddenly introduce it now for people who already have kids, no, but it should be introduced at a later date to apply in future. You can't force people not to have kids, but you can make it painfully difficult for people who want to irresponsibly pump out dozens. Currently in The UK you end up better off if you have more kids because of the welfare system. That has to go.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie
