Statistically speaking, the older a woman is when she gives birth, the more likely that child will turn out retarded or autistic. Turning out gay would be a blessing so that the child won't give her grandchildren.

No, older women have kids with chromosome issues like Downs syndrome but it's older men who have kids with genetic mutation issues like autism, schizophrenia, psychopathy, infertility, etc. This is because men remake their sperm constantly so the genetic errors build up over time while a woman is born with her eggs and doesn't recycle them.
