Hate any trope you want.

But this one exists because it's a real thing that happens. That biological clock 'ticking' actually is something women experience. That doesn't mean they have kids, or should have kids, or that anyone watching should think they should have kids, but yes, this happens to REAL PEOPLE. Media will, naturally, mostly be about real experiences (dramatized to be more interesting, of course).

And not all women experience it, either. But it's a common trope because it's a common experience.
