Liberal Eugenic Applications of Reproductive Technology, Pt II
Specialization for quality and efficiency
Reproduction is a greater biological investment for females: gestation and lactation require more than ejaculation. Women have fewer gametes and a shorter window of fertility than men. Women also end up rearing children more often than men.
Though most men can breed at the same rate, ignorant women breed more than intelligent women. It gets worse: the development of a child’s cerebral cortex (center of intelligence) depends on the X chromosome—from the mother. Dumb women will have dumb children.
The least sensitive and perceptive individuals are more likely to have children.
Liber A:O
Ignorant women don’t think to use birth control. They breed on sentimental urges, not understanding the time and money a child entails. Such women often belong to religions that prohibit birth control (Catholicism), encourage breeding (Quiverfull), and condemn abortion.
Those with greater potential to Awaken are less prone to have children.
Liber A:O
Intelligent women are more ambitious, career-oriented, and educated. Mothers earn less than childless women, so smart women often avoid reproducing to increase their market value.
This is a dangerous trend that will cause the dumbing of humanity unless we increase intelligent women’s fecundity.
One possible solution is surrogacy, which allows a woman to have her embryos implanted in other women. This delegation of gestation has numerous advantages:
1) It allows working women to reproduce without decreasing their market value.
2) It increases the rate at which a woman can reproduce. A woman with the means to afford multiple surrogacies can become a “queen bee.”
3) It occupies the wombs of other women, decreasing the rate at which less intelligent women breed.
4) It prevents taxing a woman’s body. A repeat mother will lose bone density, become anemic, and potentially have spikes in blood pressure. Later-born children can become sickly, premature, and malnourished. (Think of Michelle Duggar’s 19th child, Josie.) With gestation delegated, this can be avoided.
5) Because surrogacy is expensive, surrogate children are more likely to be genetically screened prior to implantation.
There are only a few disadvantages, which are easily compensated for.
1) Some surrogate mothers smoke, drink, or don’t watch their health. Stipulations in the contract and agencies that screen and monitor can prevent this.
2) Beneficial breast-feeding is less likely. This can be requested in the contract, and many surrogate mothers are willing to oblige if compensated.
3) Surrogacy makes sex unnecessary for reproduction. Of course, one can still have sex recreationally.
His ichor cleanses the sin of all mankind.
