Why is it selfish to not want children?

Norse's edit:
Though I wouldn't be quite so arbitrary with the eugenics; it ought to be biased on scientific knowledge and based on genetic health (thus genetically unhealthy people wouldn't reproduce, but they could adopt)

Also cut down the population size from 6 billion to 1-2 billion, and enable an extensive conditioning campaign, and a caste system from workers to the "normal" people. The workers' growth could be stunted, mentally, from birth to make them docile and they could simply be told that they are happy.
Do you stand behind that, or is this just random drivel as well ?
 
Yes, but you can't say:
"I forbid everyone that I deem undesirable to breed."
"Every else, go ahead. Fuck your brains out."
"Hold it! Not you! I don't like your face."

NORSEFIRE wat a dumbass question.

SERIOUSLY
Ideemany and all who I deem undesireable tobreed, to not breed lmfao of course that dosn't mean to justgoabout their life and do whatever thefuck theywanna do only thatthey realize how stupid fuck they r for ruining their life
 
I theoretically would stand behind it, because it will lead to paradise. What objections could you possibly have?

Are you serious ? Do you wish that they would bring your ideas, as presented in post 58, into practice ?

Such ideas will lead to harmony, prosperity, order, and happiness. Do you object to those things?

Don't you want to cut down the population size?
 
Yes, you, with your threads updating us on the pizza you order and the toenail you cut, and nobody cares

lol :D

Sorry Norse, I'll take you off ignore. I was too rash.
If you don't mind, I will not be discussing your fascist ideas though.

Nah, but it is selfish for genetically unfit or undesirable people to have children.

Yes, of course I agree with that. Don't you think it would be selfish to bring to the world a genetically unfit child, only to witness it struggle with its shortcomings?

It was more about the 'undesirable people'.
 
I seem to get this charge levelled at me a lot.

Why?

What is selfish about not wanting to reproduce?

I can see why being focused more on your own life and career to take care of it could be seen as selfish, but, why is not wanting one in the first place selfish?

I don't believe I owe the world a little Visceral Instinct. There are enough humans destroying the place as it is.

So not having children is selfless?
I dunno. I guess people automatically assume that females want to have children as their means of contributing to society. It's old fashioned, and really archaic, but I do know some people who still think that way.

I would argue it is actually selfish to have children. Many end up trying to mold them into clones of themselves, only to realise that they are their own individuals. I was blessed to have parents realize this early on.
