I still want specifics on this genetic disorder Wendie

And no

Would you wanna be in a relationship where it feels like you’re forcing it

It doesn’t have to be

I don't know those sepcifics because like I said, getting it tested would have it on my record and make getting insurance harder

But the notion of marriage based on purely attraction is not a strong marriage

Okay but what do you know

Is there just high rates of cancer in your family?

But it should still have some level of attraction

Almost everyone I know of in my family that came before me on one parent's side died of cancer

Okay, thank you for clarifying, I’m fine with you being a degenerate now.

Also relationships shouldn't just be about having children. What kind of life is that, to live just to have kids and they live just to have kids who live just to have kids?

It's called "The survival of the human race 🤔"

The whole purpose of relationships is to have kids

Pretty good life

Yeah well we have 7 and a half billion and it's only going up

I don't think a few gay people are gonna hurt that

Why is survival even important?

Wendie, I would recommend familiarizing yourself with the demographic transition model because your Malthusian ideas are ridiculous.

it's going down in the west, and the upward rate is slowing globally.

And survival arguments aside, having children is one of the most fulfilling things you could ever do. Two big things:
- Free best friend who loves you and admires you (if you aren't a shit parent)
- When you're old someone will take care of you

Our duty as a race is to survive together

@Slendy good question let's just kill ourselves humanity is shit

As a race or a species?

If you want to be a nihilistic fag who doesn’t have to forward themselves and heir people, go ahead

Yes both for every race and the species as a whole I think

I think it’s a good question

Our race, Wendie. But each race forwards themselves together.

What actually makes survival important

That question does Slendy

without humans there would be no one to ask anything about right or wrong

that question proves itself

if you were dead you couldn't ask it

Survival is the basic building block and nature of life itself

and no one could, humans are the only ones who ever have

What about survival of a bloodline?

without humans there are no morals, no right, no wrong, no thought, just blind animal kingdom

real nihilism, no meaning whatsoever

This "survival" argument is bullshit tbh because humans are already way overpopulated

You're oversimplifying it. Overpopulation is not going to be a concern.

Wendie ffs please look up the demographic transition model right now

Everyone forecasts that humans will cap out before 9B (number from memory). And that the west will seriously shrink in population.

Specifically regarding the stage 5

"What about survival of a bloodline?" why would someone not care about their bloodline?

it seems instinctual and right to care about your immediate tribe the most (family/bloodline)

with some exceptions probably

It’s very instinctual

Slendy, inside of you right now is history itself, literally the genes of thousands of people. They have fought to survive and forward their genes and they essentially live inside of you, when you procreate, you are adding your genes to that, something that will stand the test of time if your descendants follow the basic human instinct: to survive.

It’s your legacy essentially

Every other trace of you will be erased eventually, but your genes live on

Countries like Japan are already facing crisis because of not enough workers. And it's only going to get worse unless they start having more kids.

Old:Young ratio will be way too large.

^^

Exactly

By trying to do “population reduction” you’re going to have a disaster

Because you need proportional generations being born to support older generations

Going up to 9B or 10B is not going to starve the world of energy, resources, food, or space.

We have plenty of room to grow a bit more, and technology is beating our rate of growth ATM

And no expert says we're going to grow indefinitely if you do research on the matter.

What if we just did something useful with the land of third world countries

Largescale and intentional reduction may be bad yes, but just me and one other woman deciding not to have children isn't going to hurt the population much and instead will allow us to help already-made children to have a better life than they otherwise would have

But Wendy our birth rates are far below what they should be

We’re heading towards catastrophe and our race is dying

We’re becoming a minority in our own countries

so?

Most of the people I've been attracted to are people of color so

awww poor you

But since you have major genetic disorders, I support you not reproducing

I don’t think it’s that bad of a genetic disorder

I understand if you're gay @shlendie - that's not an easy life. But be careful deciding that having children is a bad idea - in fact, it's one of the most rewarding things you could ever do. And if adopting is your best choice as a gay couple, then you're doing some good there. Better than foster homes.

Exactly

If you’re worried about reproducing then anything that causes cancer isn’t much of a worry

I dont think having children is a bad idea, I personally don't want to but yeah

Having almost everyone in your family die of cancer is kinda serious

@Logicpoints Im supprised you havent tried that spiel on me?

@Josh42A it's never come up?

ive talked about it before

I have no plans to ever have children

why?

because its a waste of money

That is the most selfish bullshit reason I’ve ever heard

ok, if you could remove the monetary stretching and limitations, why?

because their gross

ok, they're gross for 5-10 years. why?

This is shitty bait

did you just wave away 5-10 years?

like it was nothing

did you just assume the 5-10 years while they grow up are "gone"?

You aren't living your life

You're trapped in a cage

raising kids and miserable

@Doctor Anon what’s up, doc?

you are

Not much

Focusing on a project so not really active on here sorry

You are if you suck at raising kids. Some of the happiest people I know are parents of young children.

Okay, I just came back to the server to call you an asshole @Doctor Anon glad I finally got to do it

some of the most miserable people I know are

And you can get tons of work done while you do it if you follow a traditional parenting model.

Well, they suck at it, hah.

not to mention my CP could get genetically passed down
