@JoeChip @n_dimension @Iwillyeah @Daojoan that's the thing: we can lower our numbers by choice, or nature will do it. All sorts of collapses are underway (not like Revelation or anything, just inevitable consequence of our insatiable hunger). We will go down to extinction before we give up a single convenience. The race is on: will we kill ourselves before we render the planet inimical to life?  @Iwillyeah @JoeChip @Daojoan Or that people's lineage before them, or random chance for that matter, does not affect the offspring? @Iwillyeah @JoeChip @Daojoan Natural does not equal good. If we want good, we must influence nature and ourselves.  @Iwillyeah @JoeChip @Daojoan Do you think hope and will to be hubris? What's your alternative? I just noticed the OP's screenshot cited cited evolutionary psychology as the basis for its analysis. That particular academic field has developed a bad odor - it's perceived as a kind of reboot of social darwinism.  @JoeChip @Iwillyeah @Daojoan Yeah, evolutionary psychology is not a credible science. A lot of what they output is outright pseudo-science. The observation in the OP screenshot is interesting still, even if the analysis may not be worth the pixels it's rendered on. |

Conflicting or ambiguous data on this. Just a guess, but my sense is that fewer women are choosing to birth. Who those that do are picking as mates I really don't know.
