Sounds reasonable. Until you get those hubbos that are into pets.

Tbh some of us (Pick) use this website more than others and I feel that I am unfairly subsidizing picks posting. Unless some kind of fee by post usage is enabled were basically instituting a forced welfare state of posting.
My friend lives next to a group of three women all divorced career women who have substituted cats where the instinctual need for children is.

That said, I wouldn't stigmatize being elderly and single because I think in a lot of situations either you or potentially anybody you meet could be really awful people and you actually just deserve whatever situation you are in. A.K.A. I don't need a man to define my existence. I imagine that in a perfect society these older broads enjoy a multitude of hobbies like kayakking, gardening, and loving nameless, faceless strangers in sordid motels once a month without an ounce of societal judgement.

I'm not sure if that's the one with Michael Keaton or Hulk Hogan. I think they wear tutus in both, signifying the epic team up sequel that never got made. You can learn this and other pseudo truths at your local Palmer Video.

I'm gay and actually I use my opinions to subtly remind and properly shame women about their bodies and place in the world. What is that?? A birthmark? I'm going to move around it because I don't know if it's cancerous. You're disgusting and your body is a wasteland where dreams don't even form

birth rates of developed countries are hosed. singapore and hong kong are at 1.2. south korea is 1.24. taiwan got down to 0.9 in 2010 and has now bounced back to a fecund 1.12. japan is 1.46. i wonder if you broke down by intelligence within these countries if the numbers for the iq 120+ crowd would be even worse.

maybe we will have to push women back in the kitchen if you want the models of people with proven track records to procreate more (i would hope we figure out some better solution than that b c it is pretty offensive).

Replacement is 2.1, and there's a negative correlation between intelligence and birth rates within those populations, so dysgenics is in effect

Nothing in Jurassic World is natural, we have always filled gaps in the genome with the DNA of other animals. And if the genetic code was pure, many of them would look quite different. But you didn't ask for reality, you asked for more teeth.

The fewer humans on the earth, the better. We should be trying to get the birth rates of the less developed countries down to first world levels.

wealth is partly caused by intelligence. and unless you're saying that differences in intelligence are only explained by wealth and if we make poor people wealthier any differences in intelligence will disappear that still doesn't address the problem that the smarter people are the fewer kids they have.
