What’s the mechanism you are proposing here?

Older parent age reduces IQ of children?
Demographic shift to an aging population results in a lower average IQ

Why do you state feminism as the cause as opposed to access to birth control and less religiosity as the drivers?

Also I’d be interested in reading whatever sources you have for this information because this seems like one of these statements that could be technically true linking studies and statistics together in a poor manner and forgetting that correlation does not equal causation.
