Yes, there is. It is perfectly logical.
You spend your entire life building your intellect. Eventually you have to allow society to profit from that work.
It's like when you work at a company, and before you leave you have to train someone to take your place.
I don't know why is it so difficult to understand.
I am not kidding at all.
Listen sally. We're already being taken over by second grade humans. Out of a hundred people in their 20s today, how many can actually spark an interesting conversation? All people want to do is to drink and fuck and watch tv. We're doomed.
But not if I can help it. My children are going to be formers of opinion. They are going to influence people around them. They are going to lead (if they so wish) because they will be fully equipped. And they will make children too. And many generations from now the world is going to be a better place because of them.
So if you think that I'm going to repeatedly put myself through 9 months of emotional instability, nausea, cramps, no drinking, swelling, seeing my firm plump sexy body fall apart, only to go through years of not sleeping well, not having time for myself, cleaning soft shit off someone's ass, having my nipples shredded, being forced into a regular schedule, not being able to travel, only to eventually have my feelings for these creatures to be deemed sappy and to be told to leave them alone and let them go away to leave their lives, just because I want to have a smart little pet, you are completely wrong. And if you still think that my intentions are selfish, I think this discussion is over, as we probably are never going to reach common ground.
