Rooster_Ties Posted February 25, 2021 Report Share Posted February 25, 2021 (edited) I can’t fathom how an ever increasing world population (of humans, to be specific) is in any way sustainable. My wife and I are child-free, and the world could do with a LOT more families who willingly chose to have only one child (or less). And maybe if the birthrate mysteriously dropped, that wouldn’t at all be a bad thing in the long run (realizing that younger generations are often saddled with paying healthcare and some retirement costs for those in their last decade or two — so there are some nontrivial issues in the short run). Still, overall — looking one- and two-hundred years from now — life would have to be better for more (as a percentage of the total world population), if we all somehow learned to procreate less — especially or if our collective virility were to somehow take a hit “naturally”(?) — like as a byproduct of whatever forces are causing these lower sperm-counts and testosterone levels. I don’t begrudge anyone in particular for having 2 or even more kids — but it would be great and far better if birth replacement rates were somehow (again “naturally”) kept to an average of less than 2 rugrats per couple. Even 1.75 (remember, we’re taking overall averages here), would make a big difference over time.

sgcim Posted February 25, 2021 Report Share Posted February 25, 2021 ohmygodinthefuturewomenwillholdfertilemalesasbreedingsexslaves- Sound good to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSngry Posted February 25, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2021 I know, right? No more of this "job" craziness! But you gotta keep the sperm count up, so...eat a lot of eggs, maybe? I LOL at the possibility that there are daily man-made chemicals that are possibly doing this. For years, there's been all this alt-right/wacko talk about various "plots" to "feminize" the males of the free world. Maybe the plot is by hyper-Industry! Right fear, wrong target, maybe. What else is new? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

romualdo Posted February 26, 2021 Report Share Posted February 26, 2021 I was a sperm donor in the early to mid 80s & never thought there was any possibility of me meeting any DC offspring but to my surprise I've made contact with 10 (actually met 7) in the last 2 years. Interesting times...... 8 hours ago, riddlemay said: it's the Fluoride Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
