These are the sort of genetic engineering/eugenists I want to see. None of that "deleting gay gene" or "breeding smart people" pseudo science garbage.
I think life would be a little better if we cranked up the gay gene. Y'all know how to party.
Make everyone pansexual. It would simplify a lot of things.
I thought you had to put something in the water for that?
That only makes the frickin frogs gay.
All eugenics is pseudoscience garbage.
In that case, let's all marry our cousins and brothers!
That's not eugenics.
It's selective breeding to get certain genetic qualities, which is the definition of eugenics
It's avoiding bad outcomes. Babies from closely related people often have problems. Practically every culture has a method of avoiding close relatives breeding
Eugenics is about breeding for desirable qualities, a eugenicist's ideal person still couldn't make good kids with a close relative
Avoiding bad genetics is desirable. Just because it's normal doesn't mean it isn't eugenics
