      It may be fine for him. He is still able to breed, but she would already be out of the gene pool through the actions of the menopause.

        Thank you for that clarification, I had been wondering why there weren't more 80-year-old mothers.

            When I was a teenager, one of my friends mom got preggy the natural way. She was 63 at the time.

                          At 75/80 years of age, children are probably no longer a viable option, so Darwin is cheated once again by circumstances.
